Product details
Overview
HER105G from Taiwan Semiconductor is a high-efficiency, glass-passivated silicon rectifier diode rated for 1 A average forward current and 400 V repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM), with low 1.3 V forward voltage at 1 A and 25°C, 50 ns reverse recovery time, and DO-204AL (DO-41) package - used in DC/DC converters and freewheeling paths in switching power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the HER105G datasheet, HER105G pinout, HER105G application, or HER105G equivalent, key selection criteria include verified VRRM = 400 V, IF = 1 A, trr = 50 ns, VF = 1.3 V @ 1 A, and thermal resistance RθJA = 60 °C/W - all confirmed for this exact variant within the HER101G–HER108G family.
Technical Context
This single-die, axial-leaded rectifier operates as a unidirectional current switch with cathode-band polarity indication, optimized for high-frequency switching-mode power conversion where fast recovery and low conduction loss are critical. Its glass-passivated junction ensures stable performance under thermal cycling and humidity stress.
The device supports surge currents up to 30 A (8.3 ms half-sine) and maintains reliable operation across –55°C to +150°C junction temperature range, with junction-to-ambient thermal resistance of 60 °C/W enabling compact board-level thermal design without forced cooling in typical 1 A applications.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 400 V - maximum non-repetitive reverse voltage the diode blocks reliably in circuit; defines usable input voltage range in flyback or buck-derived topologies |
| IF | 1 A - continuous average forward current rating; determines minimum trace width and heatsinking for steady-state conduction |
| trr | 50 ns - reverse recovery time measured at IF = 0.5 A, IR = 1.0 A, Irr = 0.25 A; enables operation up to ~2 MHz switching frequency before significant switching loss dominates |
| VF | 1.3 V @ 1 A, 25°C - forward voltage drop directly impacts conduction loss (Pcond ≈ 1.3 W at full load), influencing efficiency and thermal budget |
| CJ | 15 pF @ 1 MHz, VR = 4.0 V - junction capacitance affects high-frequency noise coupling and snubber design in hard-switched converters |
| RθJA | 60 °C/W - junction-to-ambient thermal resistance; with 1.3 W dissipation, expected ΔT ≈ 78°C above ambient - guides PCB copper area and airflow requirements |
Pinout & Package
Package: DO-204AL (DO-41), axial-leaded, glass-passivated silicon die in molded epoxy case with pure tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002 solderability and JESD 201 Class 2 whisker resistance. Polarity indicated by cathode band.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (lead without band) | Forward current entry point | Connected to lower-potential node (e.g., switch node in boost, source in synchronous rectification); must handle full IF and IFSM |
| Cathode (lead with band) | Forward current exit / reverse voltage blocking terminal | Connected to higher-potential rail (e.g., output capacitor positive); withstands up to 400 V reverse bias during off-state |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Glass-passivated junction | Enables stable leakage current (<5 µA @ 25°C) and long-term reliability under humid or thermally cycled conditions without hermetic sealing |
| Low VF = 1.3 V @ 1 A | Reduces conduction loss by ~23% vs. standard 1N4007 (VF ≈ 1.7 V), improving efficiency in 5–24 V output DC/DC stages |
| trr = 50 ns | Minimizes reverse recovery charge (Qrr) and associated switching losses in 100 kHz–1 MHz SMPS designs, reducing EMI generation |
| AEC-Q101 qualified option available | Supports automotive-grade qualification path (HER105GH) for under-hood and infotainment power supply applications requiring stress-tested reliability |
Applications
| DC/DC Converters | Switching Inverters |
|---|---|

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-reliability rectifier handling continuous 1 A load with exposure to vibration, wide temperature swings, and electrical transients. Use Value: –55°C to +150°C operating range and JESD 201 Class 2 whisker resistance ensure long-term stability in uncontrolled ambient conditions. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-efficiency rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH1R04 | VRRM = 400 V, IF = 1 A, trr = 35 ns, VF = 1.15 V @ 1 A - faster recovery and lower VF, but higher cost and no AEC-Q101 option | Better suited for ultra-high-frequency (>500 kHz) or ultra-low-loss designs where 0.15 V VF reduction justifies premium pricing | Select STTH1R04 only if trr < 40 ns is required and cost sensitivity is low; HER105G remains optimal for cost-constrained 100–300 kHz industrial converters |
| 1N5622 | VRRM = 400 V, IF = 1 A, trr = 100 ns, VF = 1.4 V @ 1 A - slower recovery, higher VF, legacy DO-41 part with no AEC-Q101 path | Acceptable for line-frequency or low-frequency (<50 kHz) rectification where recovery loss is negligible | Choose 1N5622 only for legacy redesigns or non-critical applications; HER105G delivers measurable efficiency gain in modern SMPS due to 50% faster trr and 0.1 V lower VF |
Compared with STTH1R04 and 1N5622, HER105G offers the best balance of speed (50 ns), conduction loss (1.3 V), qualification readiness (AEC-Q101 option), and cost for mainstream 100–300 kHz switching power supplies - making it the preferred choice where reliability, efficiency, and supply chain continuity are jointly prioritized.

FAQ
What is the repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM) rating for HER105G?
The HER105G has a repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM) rating of 400 V, as explicitly specified in the "ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM RATINGS" table for the HER105G row. This value is fixed per variant and not shared across the HER101G–HER108G family - HER105G is distinct from HER104G (300 V) and HER106G (600 V). The 400 V rating defines its safe blocking capability in circuits such as flyback transformer secondaries or DC-link freewheeling paths.
What is the forward voltage (VF) of HER105G at 1 A and 25°C?
The forward voltage (VF) of HER105G is 1.3 V at 1 A forward current and 25°C junction temperature, per the "ELECTRICAL SPECIFICATIONS" table. This value is specific to HER105G and differs from adjacent variants (e.g., HER104G = 1.0 V, HER106G = 1.7 V). It directly determines conduction loss (P = I × VF ≈ 1.3 W), impacting thermal design and efficiency in continuous 1 A applications.
Does HER105G have a qualified AEC-Q101 version?
Yes - the AEC-Q101 qualified version of HER105G is designated HER105GH, as noted in the "ORDERING INFORMATION" section. The "H" suffix indicates full AEC-Q101 stress testing compliance, including temperature cycling, high-temperature operating life, and unbiased highly accelerated stress test. HER105G itself is the standard industrial-grade variant; HER105GH is the automotive-qualified option with identical electrical specs and DO-41 packaging.
What is the reverse recovery time (trr) of HER105G, and under what test conditions?
The reverse recovery time (trr) of HER105G is 50 ns, measured under the defined conditions: forward current IF = 0.5 A, reverse current IR = 1.0 A, and reverse recovery current Irr = 0.25 A. This value is confirmed in the "ELECTRICAL SPECIFICATIONS" table for HER105G and distinguishes it from slower variants (e.g., HER108G = 75 ns) and faster alternatives (e.g., STTH1R04 = 35 ns). It reflects real-world switching behavior in hard-commutated topologies.
What package type does HER105G use, and are its leads lead-free?
HER105G uses the DO-204AL (DO-41) axial-leaded package, as stated in "MECHANICAL DATA" and "ORDERING INFORMATION". Its leads are pure tin plated and fully compliant with J-STD-002 solderability requirements. The device is RoHS-compliant and halogen-free per IEC 61249-2-21, confirming lead-free construction. Polarity is marked by a visible cathode band on the body, and weight is approximately 0.330 g.
