Product details
Overview
HER306GH from Taiwan Semiconductor is a high-efficiency, AEC-Q101-qualified ultrafast recovery rectifier diode in DO-201AD package, rated for 3A average forward current, 600V repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM), and 75ns reverse recovery time (trr). It delivers low forward voltage drop (1.7V at 3A, 25°C) and high surge capability (125A IFSM), targeting automotive-grade DC/DC converters and switching inverters.
For engineers reviewing the HER306GH datasheet, HER306GH pinout, HER306GH application, or HER306GH equivalent, key selection criteria include its AEC-Q101 qualification status, 600V VRRM, 75ns trr, 1.7V VF at 3A, and DO-201AD mechanical compatibility with high-reliability power conversion designs.
Technical Context
This device is a single-die, planar-junction ultrafast recovery rectifier optimized for reduced switching losses in high-frequency power supplies. Its 75ns reverse recovery time and 35pF junction capacitance at 4V enable efficient operation in 100–500kHz SMPS topologies.
The HER306GH operates across –55°C to +150°C junction temperature range, with 10°C/W junction-to-lead thermal resistance and RoHS-compliant, halogen-free molding compound meeting UL 94V-0 - supporting under-hood automotive deployment where thermal robustness and material compliance are mandatory.
Key Specifications

|---|---|
| VRRM | 600 V - supports input stages of 400V AC-derived or 300–450V DC bus systems |
| IF | 3 A continuous - suitable for medium-power DC/DC outputs up to ~75W with adequate heatsinking |
| trr | 75 ns - enables stable operation in hard-switched converters operating ≤500 kHz without excessive ringing |
| VF | 1.7 V @ 3A, 25°C - reduces conduction loss by ~15% vs. standard FRD counterparts at same current |
| IFSM | 125 A @ 8.3ms - withstands inrush and transient overloads in motor drive freewheeling paths |
| CJ | 35 pF @ 1MHz, 4V - minimizes capacitive coupling noise in high-dv/dt gate-drive isolation circuits |
| TJ max | +150°C - allows direct mounting on PCBs with limited airflow in sealed automotive ECUs |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar ultrafast rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vishay VS-HER306GHE3/45 | Same VRRM (600V), trr = 75ns, but not AEC-Q101 qualified; RθJA = 40°C/W (vs. 35°C/W) | Suitable for industrial/commercial SMPS only; not validated for automotive temperature cycling or humidity testing | Select when AEC-Q101 is not required and cost sensitivity outweighs thermal margin needs |
| ON Semiconductor MUR3060CT | Dual common-cathode configuration (2×3A), 600V, trr = 60ns, but larger TO-220AB package and no AEC-Q101 grade | Requires dual-diode layout; better for dual-rail outputs but incompatible with DO-201AD footprint | Choose only if board redesign accommodates TO-220 and dual-output architecture is needed |
Compared with VS-HER306GHE3/45 and MUR3060CT, the HER306GH uniquely combines AEC-Q101 qualification, DO-201AD form factor, and 600V/75ns performance-making it the sole drop-in option for space-constrained, automotive-grade rectification without layout change or derating.

FAQ
What is the peak repetitive reverse voltage rating for HER306GH?
The HER306GH has a repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM) rating of 600 V. This value is confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table of the official Taiwan Semiconductor datasheet (Version I2105), where HER306G is explicitly listed under the 600V column. It defines the maximum reverse-biased voltage the device can block repeatedly without breakdown under normal operating conditions.
Is HER306GH qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, the "H" suffix in HER306GH denotes AEC-Q101 qualification. Taiwan Semiconductor confirms this in the Ordering Information section, stating "'H' means AEC-Q101 qualified". The device undergoes stress testing per AEC-Q101 including HTOL, temperature cycling, and HTRB, making it suitable for automotive powertrain and body electronics where reliability under thermal and mechanical stress is critical.
What is the forward voltage drop of HER306GH at rated current?
The HER306GH exhibits a maximum forward voltage (VF) of 1.7 V at 3 A forward current and 25°C junction temperature, as specified in the Electrical Specifications table under "HER306G–HER308G" group. This value is measured under pulsed conditions (PW = 0.3 ms) and reflects typical conduction loss behavior in high-frequency switching applications.
Does HER306GH have a defined reverse recovery time?
Yes, the HER306GH has a typical reverse recovery time (trr) of 75 ns, specified under Electrical Specifications for HER306G–HER308G at IF = 0.5 A, IR = 1.0 A, and Irr = 0.25 A. This ultrafast recovery characteristic is critical for minimizing switching losses and EMI in converters operating above 100 kHz.
What package type does HER306GH use, and what are its key mechanical features?
HER306GH uses the DO-201AD axial-leaded package. Key mechanical features include UL 94V-0 flammability-rated molding compound, pure tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002 solderability, JESD201 Class 2 whisker resistance, and cathode polarity indicated by a visible band - all verified in the Mechanical Data section of the Taiwan Semiconductor datasheet.
