Product details
Overview
HS3GBH from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 3A, 600V repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM) surface-mount silicon rectifier diode in DO-214AA (SMB) package, featuring 1.3V max forward voltage at 3A and 50ns reverse recovery time - optimized for automotive DC-DC converters and freewheeling in high-efficiency power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the HS3GBH datasheet, HS3GBH pinout, HS3GBH application, or HS3GBH equivalent, key selection criteria include its AEC-Q101 qualification, 100A surge rating, 150°C junction temperature limit, low-profile SMB footprint, and verified performance in snubber and car lighting circuits.
Technical Context
The HS3GBH is a single-die, glass-passivated, fast-recovery rectifier designed for high-frequency switching applications. Its 600V VRRM, 50ns trr, and 1.3V VF at 3A enable efficient operation in automotive-grade power conversion stages where thermal robustness and low conduction loss are critical.
It operates across –55°C to +150°C junction temperature range with 60°C/W junction-to-ambient thermal resistance and meets JESD201 Class 2 whisker resistance and J-STD-020 Level 1 moisture sensitivity requirements - confirming suitability for reflow-soldered automotive PCB assemblies.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 600 V - supports DC-DC stages with up to 600V transient clamping margin |
| IF | 3 A continuous - rated for sustained output current in compact automotive power modules |
| IFSM | 100 A (8.3ms half-sine) - withstands inrush and fault surges without failure |
| VF @ 3A, 25°C | ≤1.3 V - reduces conduction loss and improves system efficiency vs. standard rectifiers |
| trr | 50 ns - enables high-frequency switching (>100 kHz) with minimal switching loss |
| TJ max | +150 °C - allows operation in under-hood environments without derating |
| CJ @ 1MHz, 4V | 80 pF - limits capacitive coupling noise in high-dv/dt snubber circuits |
Pinout & Package
DO-214AA (SMB) package: molded plastic case with matte tin-plated leads, cathode indicated by band, UL 94V-0 rated compound, 0.093g weight, polarity-marked for unambiguous orientation during automated placement.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Current entry point during forward conduction | Connected to lower-potential node (e.g., switch node in buck freewheel path) |
| Cathode | Current exit point during forward conduction; reverse-blocking terminal | Marked with band; tied to output rail or ground return in clamp/freewheel configurations |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar fast-recovery rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH3L06S (STMicroelectronics) | Same 3A/600V rating, but 65ns trr and 1.7V VF; TO-277 package (smaller footprint than SMB) | Higher VF increases conduction loss in high-duty-cycle apps; TO-277 requires different pad layout | Prefer HS3GBH when lowest VF and SMB compatibility are prioritized |
| ES3J (ON Semiconductor) | 3A/600V, 75ns trr, 1.7V VF; DO-214AB (SMC) package - larger than SMB | Slower recovery and higher VF reduce efficiency; SMC footprint needs board redesign | Choose HS3GBH for tighter thermal design and automated placement compatibility in space-limited layouts |
Compared with STTH3L06S and ES3J, the HS3GBH delivers superior forward voltage (1.3V vs. ≥1.7V) and faster recovery (50ns vs. ≥65ns) in the industry-standard SMB package - enabling higher efficiency and drop-in replacement in existing DO-214AA designs without layout change.

FAQ
What is the maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM) for HS3GBH?
The HS3GBH has a VRRM of 600 V, as confirmed in the absolute maximum ratings table across all versions (A2102). This rating defines the highest reverse voltage the device can block repeatedly without breakdown and is validated for use in 48V automotive systems with safety margin.
Is HS3GBH qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, HS3GBH is explicitly AEC-Q101 qualified per the manufacturer's documentation. It meets stress test requirements for temperature cycling, humidity bias, and mechanical shock - making it suitable for engine control units, body electronics, and lighting modules without additional qualification.
What is the forward voltage (VF) of HS3GBH at 3A and 25°C?
The HS3GBH exhibits a maximum forward voltage of 1.3 V at 3A and 25°C junction temperature, as specified in the electrical characteristics table. This value is measured under pulse conditions (PW = 0.3ms) and directly impacts conduction loss in high-current power paths.
Does HS3GBH have a defined reverse recovery time (trr)?
Yes, HS3GBH has a typical reverse recovery time of 50 ns, tested at IF = 0.5A, IR = 1.0A, and Irr = 0.25A. This parameter is critical for minimizing switching loss in high-frequency DC-DC topologies and is confirmed in the electrical specifications section.
What package type does HS3GBH use, and is it compatible with automated assembly?
HS3GBH uses the DO-214AA (SMB) package with matte tin-plated leads solderable per J-STD-002. Its low-profile design and polarity marking (cathode band) are optimized for high-yield automated placement and reflow soldering - confirmed in the mechanical data and features sections.
