Product details
Overview
HS3GH from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 3A, 600V repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM) surface-mount silicon rectifier diode in DO-214AB (SMC) package, featuring 1.3V max forward voltage at 3A/25°C, 50ns reverse recovery time, and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive-grade reliability. It serves as a freewheeling or snubber diode in DC-DC converters and car lighting systems.
For engineers reviewing the HS3GH datasheet, HS3GH pinout, HS3GH application, or HS3GH equivalent, key selection criteria include its 600V VRRM, 150A IFSM, 1.3V VF at rated current, junction-to-ambient thermal resistance of 60°C/W, and DO-214AB mechanical compatibility with automated SMT assembly.
Technical Context
This device is a single-die, glass-passivated, standard recovery rectifier optimized for high-efficiency power conversion where moderate switching speed and low conduction loss are prioritized. Its 50ns trr and 80pF junction capacitance support operation in 50–100kHz DC-DC topologies without excessive switching loss.
The DO-214AB (SMC) package provides robust thermal dissipation (RθJA = 60°C/W), matte tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002, and polarity indicated by cathode band - enabling reliable reflow soldering and automotive under-hood mounting.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 600 V - maximum non-repetitive reverse voltage the diode blocks reliably in circuit |
| IF | 3 A - continuous average forward current rating at case temperature ≤ 75°C |
| VF | ≤1.3 V @ 3A, 25°C - low conduction loss enabling >92% efficiency in 12V→5V buck converters |
| trr | ≤50 ns - enables use in medium-frequency switching supplies without excessive reverse recovery loss |
| CJ | 80 pF @ 1MHz, 4V - limits capacitive coupling noise in snubber and flyback clamp circuits |
| IFSM | 150 A - surge withstand capability for inrush and transient protection in automotive load-dump scenarios |
| TJ max | +150 °C - supports operation in engine compartment environments up to 125°C ambient with derating |
Pinout & Package
DO-214AB (SMC) package: surface-mount, molded plastic case with cathode band marking; dimensions per JEDEC DO-214AB standard; weight ≈ 0.210 g; UL 94V-0 rated molding compound.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |

| Cathode (lead 2) | Forward current exit / reverse blocking terminal | Marked by band; connects to higher-potential rail (e.g., input bus); critical for polarity-sensitive snubber placement |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

| Glass passivated junction | Enhances humidity resistance and long-term reliability in high-vibration, high-moisture environments |
| Low profile DO-214AB (SMC) | Enables compact PCB layout and compatibility with standard SMT pick-and-place equipment |
| Moisture sensitivity level 1 | No bake requirement before reflow; simplifies manufacturing and reduces process risk |
| Halogen-free & RoHS compliant | Meets EU Directive 2011/65/EU and IEC 61249-2-21 for environmentally restricted materials |
Applications
| DC-DC Converter | Automotive Lighting |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Used as output rectifier in 24V→12V isolated flyback converter for body control module power supply. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Freewheeling diode conducting during transformer reset phase; handles 3A DC output with minimal VF-related loss. Use Value: 1.3V VF reduces conduction loss by ~18% vs. legacy 1.6V diodes, improving thermal margin at 75°C ambient. | Use Scenario: Snubber diode across MOSFET in PWM-driven LED headlight driver with 600V bus transients. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Clamps inductive kickback during MOSFET turn-off; absorbs energy from parasitic leakage inductance. Use Value: 600V VRRM and 150A IFSM ensure survival during ISO 7637-2 pulse 5a load-dump events. |
| Snubber Circuit | Freewheeling Application |
Use Scenario: RCD snubber network on primary side of 48V→12V LLC resonant converter in ADAS domain controller. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Provides fast, low-loss path for snubber capacitor discharge; operates at <50kHz switching frequency. Use Value: 50ns trr minimizes tail current overlap loss, while 80pF CJ avoids resonance with snubber inductance. | Use Scenario: Freewheeling path for solenoid actuator coil in electronic parking brake (EPB) control unit. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Conducts stored inductive energy when drive MOSFET turns off; sustains current until coil energy dissipates. Use Value: AEC-Q101 qualification and -55°C to +150°C TJ range guarantee operation across full automotive temperature envelope. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vishay VS-3EYH06-M3 | Same DO-214AB package; 3A/600V; VF = 1.35V max @ 3A; trr = 50ns; not AEC-Q101 qualified | Lacks automotive qualification; suitable for industrial DC-DC but not safety-critical vehicle systems | Select if AEC-Q101 is not required and Vishay supply chain preference applies |
| ON Semiconductor MUR360RLG | DO-201AD package (larger); 3A/600V; VF = 1.3V; trr = 50ns; AEC-Q101 qualified; RθJA = 70°C/W | Through-hole compatible; higher thermal resistance limits power density in space-constrained layouts | Select only if through-hole assembly is mandated or DO-214AB footprint unavailable |
Compared with VS-3EYH06-M3 and MUR360RLG, HS3GH uniquely combines AEC-Q101 qualification, DO-214AB SMT compatibility, and 60°C/W thermal resistance - making it optimal for high-density automotive power modules where qualification, size, and thermal performance are jointly constrained.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for HS3GH?
The HS3GH has a maximum junction temperature (TJ) rating of +150°C, verified per absolute maximum ratings table in Taiwan Semiconductor's A2102 datasheet. This allows HS3GH to operate continuously in under-hood automotive environments where case temperatures reach 125°C, provided appropriate thermal design maintains junction temperature within limit. Derating curves confirm usable current capacity down to 1.2A at 125°C ambient.
Is HS3GH pin-compatible with other parts in the HS3xH family?
Yes, all HS3xH devices-including HS3GH-share identical DO-214AB (SMC) package dimensions, lead spacing, and cathode-band polarity marking. The only differences are VRRM (600V for HS3GH), forward voltage (1.3V max), and junction capacitance (80pF). This enables direct substitution within the same footprint when voltage rating and electrical parameters align with circuit requirements.
Does HS3GH meet automotive qualification standards?
Yes, HS3GH is explicitly AEC-Q101 qualified per the manufacturer's documentation, confirming stress testing for temperature cycling, humidity bias, mechanical shock, and high-temperature operating life. This qualification validates HS3GH for use in automotive powertrain, chassis, and body electronics where reliability under vibration, thermal cycling, and extended service life is mandatory.
What is the reverse recovery time (trr) specification for HS3GH?
The HS3GH has a maximum reverse recovery time (trr) of 50 ns, measured under conditions of IF = 0.5 A, IR = 1.0 A, and Irr = 0.25 A. This value is confirmed in the Electrical Specifications table of the A2102 datasheet and supports use in medium-frequency switching applications such as 50–100 kHz DC-DC converters without significant recovery-related losses.
Can HS3GH be used in surface-mount reflow processes without moisture sensitivity concerns?
Yes, HS3GH is rated Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) 1 per J-STD-020, meaning it can be stored indefinitely at ≤30°C/85% RH and subjected to standard Pb-free reflow profiles (peak 260°C) without baking. This eliminates pre-reflow bake steps, reducing manufacturing cost and handling risk - a key advantage over MSL 2a or higher discrete diodes.
