Product details
Overview
HERA806G from Taiwan Semiconductor is an AEC-Q101-qualified, glass-passivated, single-die ultrafast recovery rectifier in TO-220AC package, rated for 600 V repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM), 8 A average forward current (IF), and 150 A non-repetitive surge current (IFSM), used in DC-DC converters and switching-mode inverters.
For engineers reviewing the HERA806G datasheet, HERA806G pinout, HERA806G application, or HERA806G equivalent, key selection criteria include its 1.7 V max forward voltage at 8 A/25°C, 80 ns reverse recovery time, 55 pF junction capacitance, 2 °C/W junction-to-case thermal resistance, and suitability for automotive-grade freewheeling and snubber circuits.
Technical Context
The HERA806G employs a planar epitaxial silicon die with glass passivation for enhanced reliability and moisture resistance. Its ultrafast recovery (trr ≤ 80 ns) enables high-frequency operation in SMPS topologies up to several hundred kHz.
Thermally, it features low RθJC = 2 °C/W and operates across -55°C to +150°C junction temperature range. The device supports high surge capability (IFSM = 150 A, 8.3 ms half-sine) without thermal runaway under transient overload conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 600 V - Maximum repetitive reverse blocking voltage; defines usable input voltage range in boost/flyback stages |
| IF | 8 A - Continuous average forward current at TC = 100°C; determines heatsink sizing in conduction-limited designs |
| IFSM | 150 A - Non-repetitive surge rating; supports inrush current handling in power-up sequences |
| VF (max) | 1.7 V @ 8 A, 25°C - Forward conduction loss directly impacts efficiency and thermal design in high-current paths |
| trr | 80 ns - Ultrafast reverse recovery; minimizes switching losses and EMI in hard-switched converters |
| CJ | 55 pF @ 1 MHz, VR = 4 V - Low junction capacitance reduces capacitive turn-on loss and improves high-frequency stability |
| RθJC | 2 °C/W - Enables direct mounting to heatsinks with predictable thermal rise under full load |
Pinout & Package
Package: TO-220AC - 3-lead, single-ended, through-hole package with isolated tab (cathode-connected tab), matte tin-plated leads, UL 94V-0 molding compound, and 0.56 N·m maximum mounting torque.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (Lead 1) | Input current entry point | Connected to source/switch node; must withstand full reverse voltage during off-state |
| Cathode (Lead 2) | Output current exit point | Electrically tied to metal tab; requires insulated mounting when referenced to non-ground potentials |
| Tab (Cathode) | Primary heat path & cathode terminal | Provides low-thermal-resistance path to heatsink; electrically active - isolation required if not at system ground |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar ultrafast rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH8R06D | Same TO-220AC package, 600 V VRRM, but VF = 1.85 V (max) at 8 A; trr = 60 ns; RθJC = 2.5 °C/W | Slightly higher conduction loss; lower surge rating (120 A IFSM); less robust thermal performance | Acceptable where margin exists on thermal budget and efficiency targets are relaxed |
| VS-8EWH06FN-M3 | TO-220AC, 600 V, VF = 1.75 V (max), trr = 75 ns, RθJC = 2.2 °C/W; AEC-Q101 qualified | Comparable electrical specs but higher VF and slightly slower recovery than HERA806G | Preferred where Vishay supply chain alignment or dual-sourcing is required; verify layout compatibility due to minor leadframe variation |
Compared with STTH8R06D and VS-8EWH06FN-M3, the HERA806G delivers superior thermal resistance (2 °C/W), tighter VF consistency (≤1.7 V), and higher surge tolerance (150 A), making it optimal for thermally constrained or high-reliability automotive and industrial converters.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for the HERA806G?
The HERA806G has a maximum junction temperature (TJ MAX) of +150°C, verified per JEDEC standards. This rating allows operation in under-hood automotive environments and high-ambient industrial enclosures. Derating curves in the datasheet specify that average forward current drops to ~5.5 A at TC = 125°C, ensuring safe thermal margins when mounted on appropriately sized heatsinks.
Is the HERA806G pin-compatible with other devices in the HERA80xG family?
Yes, all HERA801G through HERA808G share identical TO-220AC packaging, pinout, and mechanical footprint. The HERA806G uses the same Anode–Cathode–Tab configuration and mounting dimensions as HERA804G or HERA808G, enabling voltage-scaling design reuse without PCB changes - provided thermal and voltage margin analysis confirms suitability for the target application.
Does the HERA806G meet AEC-Q101 requirements?
Yes, the HERA806G is AEC-Q101 qualified when ordered with the "H" suffix (HERA806GH). The standard HERA806G variant is not AEC-Q101 certified; only the "H" version undergoes full stress testing including HTGB, TCT, and mechanical shock per AEC-Q101 Rev D. Always verify ordering code suffix before automotive deployment.
What is the reverse leakage current specification for the HERA806G at elevated temperature?
At TJ = 125°C and rated VR = 600 V, the HERA806G exhibits a maximum reverse leakage current (IR) of 400 µA, measured per pulse test (PW = 30 ms). This value is critical for standby power loss in high-voltage hold-up circuits and remains well within typical design allowances for 600 V-class rectifiers operating in hot ambient conditions.
How does the HERA806G's junction capacitance affect high-frequency performance?
The HERA806G has a typical junction capacitance (CJ) of 55 pF at 1 MHz and VR = 4 V. This low capacitance minimizes displacement current during voltage transitions, reducing EMI generation and improving stability in >200 kHz SMPS designs. It also lowers capacitive turn-on loss compared to higher-CJ alternatives like HERA801G–805G (65 pF), especially in zero-voltage-switching auxiliary windings.
