Product details
Overview
HER153G B0G from Taiwan Semiconductor is a high-efficiency, glass-passivated silicon rectifier diode in DO-204AC (DO-15) package, rated for 1.5A average forward current, 200V repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM), and 50A surge current (IFSM). It delivers low forward voltage drop (1.0 V at 1.5 A, 25°C) and fast reverse recovery time (50 ns), making it suitable for switching-mode power supplies and freewheeling paths in automotive-grade DC-DC converters.
For engineers reviewing the HER153G B0G datasheet, HER153G B0G pinout, HER153G B0G application, or HER153G B0G equivalent, key selection criteria include its AEC-Q101-qualified variant availability, junction temperature range (–55°C to +150°C), thermal resistance (60°C/W), junction capacitance (35 pF), and compliance with RoHS and halogen-free standards per IEC 61249-2-21.
Technical Context
This device is a single-die, unidirectional, planar passivated PN-junction rectifier optimized for high-frequency switching applications. Its 50 ns reverse recovery time and low VF support reduced conduction and switching losses in SMPS topologies operating up to several hundred kHz.
The DO-204AC (DO-15) package features pure tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002, UL 94V-0 molding compound, and cathode band polarity marking. Thermal performance is characterized by RθJA = 60°C/W, enabling reliable operation at full rated current with minimal heatsinking in ambient temperatures up to 75°C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 200 V - Maximum non-repetitive reverse voltage the diode blocks without breakdown; defines usable input voltage range in bridge or freewheeling configurations. |
| IF | 1.5 A - Continuous average forward current at TA = 75°C; determines steady-state power handling in DC-DC output stages. |
| IFSM | 50 A - Peak non-repetitive surge current (8.3 ms half-sine); supports inrush and transient overload tolerance in power converters. |
| VF | 1.0 V @ 1.5 A, 25°C - Forward voltage drop directly impacts conduction loss (Pcond ≈ IF × VF) and thermal design margin. |
| trr | 50 ns - Reverse recovery time measured at IF = 0.5 A, IR = 1.0 A, Irr = 0.25 A; critical for minimizing switching loss and EMI in high-frequency SMPS. |
| CJ | 35 pF @ 1 MHz, VR = 4.0 V - Junction capacitance affects high-frequency impedance and snubber design in resonant or quasi-resonant topologies. |
| TJ max | +150°C - Maximum junction temperature; sets upper limit for thermal design and derating curves in enclosed or high-ambient environments. |
Pinout & Package
HER153G B0G uses the DO-204AC (DO-15) axial-leaded package with cathode indicated by a colored band. The device has two terminals: anode and cathode - no internal connections beyond the PN junction.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward current entry point | Connected to lower-potential side of load or switch node; must withstand full forward surge and continuous current. |
| Cathode | Forward current exit point / reverse voltage blocking terminal | Marked with band; connects to higher-potential rail; reverse-biased during off-state and must sustain full VRRM without leakage. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| High-efficiency rectification | VF = 1.0 V @ 1.5 A enables >92% conduction efficiency in 12 V output rails, reducing thermal stress vs. standard FR/UF diodes. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-efficiency rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH1L06S | Same DO-204AC package, 1.0 A rating, 600 V VRRM, 1.15 V VF, 50 ns trr; lower IF but higher VRRM. | More suited to higher-voltage, lower-current flybacks; not recommended for 1.5 A continuous loads. | Select when system requires >400 V blocking with moderate current, and thermal headroom allows for higher VF. |
| ON Semi MUR120 | DO-41 package, 1.0 A IF, 200 V VRRM, 0.92 V VF, 35 ns trr; faster recovery but lower current rating and different footprint. | Preferred in space-constrained PCBs where ultra-fast recovery dominates over current capacity. | Choose only if layout accommodates DO-41 and peak load current stays ≤1.0 A; verify mechanical fit and thermal pad compatibility. |
Compared with STTH1L06S and MUR120, HER153G B0G uniquely balances 1.5 A current capability, 200 V rating, 1.0 V forward drop, and DO-204AC manufacturability-making it optimal for cost-sensitive, medium-power automotive and industrial SMPS where both current and thermal robustness are prioritized.

FAQ
What is the maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM) for HER153G B0G?
The HER153G B0G has a VRRM rating of 200 V, confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table of the official Taiwan Semiconductor datasheet (Version I2105). This value defines the highest reverse voltage the diode can block repeatedly without avalanche breakdown. It is distinct from the HER151G (50 V) and HER154G (300 V) variants in the same family, and must be respected in circuit design to prevent premature failure.
Is HER153G B0G AEC-Q101 qualified?
HER153G B0G itself is not AEC-Q101 qualified; however, the HER153G H variant (e.g., HER153GH) is explicitly listed as AEC-Q101 qualified in the Ordering Information section. The "H" suffix denotes qualification, while "B0G" indicates standard commercial-grade packaging (tape & reel, green compound). For automotive applications requiring qualification, specify HER153GH instead of HER153G B0G.
What is the forward voltage (VF) of HER153G B0G at rated current?
The forward voltage of HER153G B0G is 1.0 V maximum at IF = 1.5 A and TJ = 25°C, per the Electrical Specifications table. This value is typical for the HER153G variant (HER151G–HER154G group) and reflects low conduction loss critical for efficiency in power supplies. At elevated junction temperatures (e.g., 125°C), VF decreases slightly due to semiconductor physics, but derating curves must be consulted for design margins.
Does HER153G B0G have a specified reverse recovery time (trr)?
Yes, HER153G B0G has a specified reverse recovery time of 50 ns maximum, measured under conditions of IF = 0.5 A, IR = 1.0 A, and Irr = 0.25 A. This value applies to the HER151G–HER155G subgroup and is documented in the Electrical Specifications table. The 50 ns trr supports high-frequency switching up to ~500 kHz with manageable switching loss and EMI.
What package type does HER153G B0G use, and what are its key mechanical features?
HER153G B0G uses the DO-204AC (DO-15) axial-leaded package. Key mechanical features include UL 94V-0 flammability-rated epoxy molding, pure tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002 solderability, cathode polarity marked by a visible band, and a nominal weight of 0.400 g. The package outline dimensions and marking diagram are provided in the official Taiwan Semiconductor datasheet (Version I2105, Page 5).
