Product details
Overview
HS1KLWH from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 1 A, 800 V repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM) surface-mount silicon rectifier diode in SOD-123W package, featuring 1.7 V max forward voltage at 1 A, 75 ns reverse recovery time, and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive-grade reliability. It serves as a freewheeling or snubber diode in high-efficiency DC-DC converters and car lighting systems.
For engineers reviewing the HS1KLWH datasheet, HS1KLWH pinout, HS1KLWH application, or HS1KLWH equivalent, key selection criteria include its 800 V VRRM, 75 ns trr, SOD-123W thermal performance (RθJA = 80 °C/W), AEC-Q101 compliance, and junction temperature range of –55 °C to +175 °C.
Technical Context
The HS1KLWH is a single-die, glass-passivated, planar epitaxial silicon rectifier optimized for fast switching and low conduction loss in automotive and industrial power conversion. Its 7 pF junction capacitance at 1 MHz and 4.0 V reverse bias supports high-frequency operation in snubber and flyback circuits.
Designed for surface-mount assembly with matte tin-plated leads (J-STD-002 compliant) and moisture sensitivity level 1 (J-STD-020), the device delivers stable performance across –55 °C to +175 °C junction temperature, enabled by low RθJL (25 °C/W) and UL 94V-0 molding compound.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 800 V - Maximum non-repetitive reverse voltage the diode blocks without breakdown; defines use in 800 V bus or clamp applications. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar rectifier diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vishay VS-1EWH08-M3/5AT | Same SOD-123W package, 800 V VRRM, but 1.15 V VF typ @ 1 A and 50 ns trr; not AEC-Q101 qualified. | Lower VF and faster trr suit high-efficiency, high-frequency SMPS; lacks automotive qualification. | Select when AEC-Q101 is not required and lower conduction/switching loss is prioritized. |
| ON Semiconductor MUR1080S | SOD-123W, 800 V VRRM, 1.7 V VF max, but 100 ns trr and no AEC-Q101 certification. | Higher trr increases switching loss in >200 kHz designs; suitable for cost-sensitive industrial converters. | Choose for non-automotive applications where thermal margin exists and qualification is not mandated. |
Compared with VS-1EWH08-M3/5AT and MUR1080S, the HS1KLWH uniquely combines AEC-Q101 qualification, 75 ns trr, and 800 V rating in SOD-123W-making it the only option qualified for automotive front-end power stages where reliability and standardized validation are mandatory.

FAQ
What is the maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM) for HS1KLWH?
The HS1KLWH has a VRRM of 800 V, confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table of the official Taiwan Semiconductor datasheet (Version A2103). This rating defines the highest reverse voltage the diode can block repeatedly without breakdown and is critical for selecting appropriate clamping margins in automotive load-dump and industrial surge protection circuits. The HS1KLWH is part of a series spanning 200 V to 1000 V, with "K" explicitly denoting the 800 V grade.
Is HS1KLWH qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, HS1KLWH is AEC-Q101 qualified, as stated in the FEATURES section of the official datasheet. This qualification covers stress tests including high-temperature operating life, temperature cycling, and unbiased highly accelerated stress testing. The HS1KLWH is therefore approved for use in automotive powertrain, body electronics, and lighting systems where component reliability under extended temperature and vibration conditions is mandatory.
What is the forward voltage (VF) specification for HS1KLWH at 1 A?
The HS1KLWH has a maximum forward voltage of 1.7 V at 1 A and 25 °C, per the Electrical Specifications table. This value is measured under pulsed conditions (PW = 0.3 ms) and represents the worst-case conduction loss used for thermal design. At higher junction temperatures (e.g., 125 °C), VF decreases slightly, but system-level derating must account for the 1.7 V max at nominal conditions to ensure safe thermal margin in the HS1KLWH application.
What package type does HS1KLWH use, and what are its key mechanical attributes?
HS1KLWH uses the SOD-123W package, a low-profile surface-mount outline with matte tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002 solderability. Key attributes include UL 94V-0 flammability rating, polarity indicated by cathode band, 0.016 g typical weight, and JEDEC-compliant pad layout. The SOD-123W footprint enables high-density placement in automotive modules and supports automated pick-and-place without special tooling.
How does the reverse recovery time (trr) of HS1KLWH compare to other variants in the HS1xLWH family?
The HS1KLWH has a maximum reverse recovery time of 75 ns, matching HS1JLWH and HS1MLWH but slower than HS1DLWH and HS1GLWH (50 ns). This difference reflects trade-offs between voltage rating and switching speed: higher-voltage variants (J/K/M) use wider depletion regions, increasing minority carrier lifetime and trr. For HS1KLWH applications above 200 kHz, this 75 ns trr must be factored into total switching loss calculations alongside its 1.7 V VF.
