Product details
Overview
HS1KLH from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 1 A, 800 V repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM), surface-mount silicon rectifier diode in Sub SMA package, featuring 1.70 V max forward voltage at 1 A and 75 ns reverse recovery time, used for freewheeling and snubber functions in automotive DC-DC converters.
For engineers reviewing the HS1KLH datasheet, HS1KLH pinout, HS1KLH application, or HS1KLH equivalent, key selection criteria include its AEC-Q101 qualification, 150 °C maximum junction temperature, moisture sensitivity level 1 rating, glass-passivated junction, and 100 °C/W junction-to-ambient thermal resistance.
Technical Context
The HS1KLH is a single-die, standard recovery silicon rectifier optimized for high-voltage, moderate-current freewheeling and snubbing in automotive power supplies. Its 800 V VRRM and 150 °C TJ(max) support operation in under-hood environments with elevated ambient temperatures.
With 75 ns reverse recovery time and 15 pF junction capacitance at 1 MHz/4 V, the HS1KLH balances switching speed and low leakage (5 µA @ 25 °C, 150 µA @ 125 °C), making it suitable for 50–200 kHz DC-DC topologies where EMI and loss trade-offs are critical.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 800 V - supports input rails up to 560 V DC in boost/flyback designs without derating |
| IF | 1 A continuous - rated for steady-state conduction in low-power auxiliary supplies |
| VF (max) | 1.70 V @ 1 A, 25 °C - determines conduction loss of ~1.7 W at full load |
| trr | 75 ns - limits switching-related turn-off losses and EMI in hard-switched converters |
| RθJA | 100 °C/W - requires ≥25 mm² copper pad for safe 1 A operation at 70 °C ambient |
| IR (max) | 150 µA @ 125 °C - ensures minimal leakage in high-temp snubber networks |
| Package | Sub SMA - low-profile, JEDEC-compliant SMD footprint compatible with automated assembly |

Applications
| Automotive DC-DC Converters | LED Headlamp Drivers |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Step-down conversion from 12 V battery to 5 V/3.3 V for infotainment and ADAS sensors. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Freewheeling diode in synchronous or asynchronous buck regulator output stage. Use Value: 800 V VRRM provides margin against load dump transients; 75 ns trr minimizes switching loss at 100–200 kHz. | Use Scenario: Constant-current regulation for high-brightness automotive headlamps with PWM dimming. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Snubber diode across MOSFET switch to clamp inductive kickback during PWM off-time. Use Value: 150 °C TJ(max) sustains operation near hot LED heatsinks; glass passivation prevents corrosion in humid lamp housings. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-voltage rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH1R08 | 800 V VRRM, 1.05 V VF (typ), 50 ns trr, DO-214AC package | Lower VF reduces conduction loss but larger DO-214AC footprint increases board area | Prefer STTH1R08 where efficiency > size; prefer HS1KLH where AEC-Q101 and Sub SMA fit are mandatory |
| ES1J | 600 V VRRM, 1.7 V VF (max), 35 ns trr, SMA package | Lower voltage rating limits use to ≤420 V DC systems; faster recovery suits higher-frequency designs | Choose ES1J only if system VIN(max) ≤ 420 V and layout allows standard SMA; HS1KLH required for 800 V systems |
Compared with STTH1R08 and ES1J, the HS1KLH uniquely combines AEC-Q101 qualification, Sub SMA footprint, and 800 V rating-making it the only option for space-constrained, high-reliability automotive 12 V/48 V hybrid systems requiring validated automotive stress testing.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for HS1KLH?
The HS1KLH has a maximum junction temperature (TJ) rating of +150 °C, verified per AEC-Q101 stress test conditions. This allows reliable operation in under-hood automotive environments where ambient temperatures reach 125 °C, provided thermal design maintains junction temperature below this limit. The HS1KLH datasheet specifies derating curves confirming 1 A current capability down to 75 °C ambient with standard PCB copper.
Is HS1KLH pin-compatible with other devices in the HS1xLH series?
Yes, all HS1xLH devices-including HS1KLH-share identical Sub SMA package dimensions, pinout, and solder pad layout. The only differences are VRRM rating (800 V for HS1KLH), forward voltage, and reverse recovery time. This enables drop-in replacement across the series during design iteration or voltage-margin tuning without PCB changes.
Does HS1KLH meet automotive qualification standards?
Yes, HS1KLH is explicitly AEC-Q101 qualified per version A2103 of the datasheet. Testing includes HTGB, HTRB, temperature cycling, and unbiased HAST-validating suitability for automotive powertrain, body, and lighting applications. The device also meets J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1 and JESD201 whisker resistance Class 2.
What is the reverse recovery time (trr) specification for HS1KLH?
The HS1KLH has a maximum reverse recovery time (trr) of 75 ns, measured at IF = 0.5 A, IR = 1.0 A, and Irr = 0.25 A. This value is confirmed across the full operating temperature range and supports switching frequencies up to 200 kHz in DC-DC converters while maintaining acceptable EMI and turn-off loss profiles.
Can HS1KLH be used in snubber circuits?
Yes, HS1KLH is explicitly listed in the manufacturer's Applications section for snubber use. Its 800 V VRRM, 150 µA max reverse leakage at 125 °C, and 75 ns trr make it effective for clamping inductive voltage spikes across MOSFETs in automotive LED drivers and motor control modules. The glass-passivated junction ensures long-term stability under repetitive surge stress.
