Product details

Overview

HS3G M6G from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 400 V repetitive peak reverse voltage, 3 A average forward current, surface-mount silicon rectifier diode in DO-214AB (SMC) package with 1.3 V max forward voltage at 3 A and 50 ns max reverse recovery time. It serves as a high-efficiency freewheeling or output rectifier in switching-mode power supplies for telecom infrastructure and industrial DC-DC converters.

For engineers reviewing the HS3G M6G datasheet, HS3G M6G pinout, HS3G M6G application, or HS3G M6G equivalent, key selection criteria include its 400 V V_RRM, 150 A I_FSM, 60 °C/W R_θJA, J-STD-020 Level 1 moisture sensitivity, and DO-214AB mechanical compatibility with automated SMT placement.

Technical Context

This device is a single-die, glass-passivated, planar junction silicon rectifier optimized for high-frequency operation up to several hundred kHz. Its 50 ns trr and low Q_rr support reduced switching losses in synchronous and quasi-resonant topologies.

The DO-214AB (SMC) package provides robust thermal performance (R_θJA = 60 °C/W) and mechanical reliability under reflow, with matte tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002 solderability and JESD 201 Class 2 whisker resistance.

Key Specifications

Parameter	Value and Actual Design Meaning
V_RRM	400 V - supports 280 V_RMS input rectification in universal AC-DC front-ends
I_F	3 A continuous - rated for sustained conduction in 36–48 V output rails of telecom PSUs
V_F max	1.3 V @ 3 A, 25°C - limits conduction loss to ≤3.9 W at full load
t_rr max	50 ns - enables use in >200 kHz SMPS without excessive switching loss or EMI
I_FSM	150 A @ 8.3 ms - withstands inrush and transient surges in hot-swap circuits
C_J	80 pF @ 4 V - contributes <0.5 nC reverse recovery charge in typical operation
R_θJA	60 °C/W - allows ~2.5 W dissipation with 75°C ambient rise on standard 1-in² copper pad

Equivalent & Alternatives

The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-voltage rectifier applications.

Alternative Part	Technical Difference	Application Difference	Selection Advice
Vishay VS-3EYH04-M3	Same DO-214AB package; 400 V V_RRM, 3 A I_F, but 1.15 V V_F max and 75 ns t_rr	Higher conduction efficiency but slower recovery increases switching loss in >150 kHz designs	Prefer when thermal budget is tight but switching frequency ≤100 kHz
ON Semiconductor MUR340G	DO-201AD package; same 400 V/3 A rating; 1.3 V V_F, 60 ns t_rr; larger footprint and higher R_θJA (75 °C/W)	Not SMT-compatible with fine-pitch layouts; requires through-hole assembly or adapter	Select only if legacy board reuse mandates axial/DO-201AD form factor

Compared with VS-3EYH04-M3 and MUR340G, the HS3G M6G delivers optimal balance of fast recovery (50 ns), low-profile SMT packaging, and industry-standard moisture sensitivity-making it preferred for new telecom and industrial SMPS designs targeting >200 kHz operation and automated assembly.

FAQ

What is the maximum junction temperature rating for HS3G M6G?

The HS3G M6G has a maximum junction temperature (T_J) of +150°C, enabling reliable operation in sealed industrial enclosures or high-ambient environments. This rating is validated per JEDEC JESD22-A108 and supported by its 60 °C/W junction-to-ambient thermal resistance. Derating curves in the official TSC datasheet confirm usable current capacity down to 125°C ambient at full 3 A load.

Does HS3G M6G meet RoHS and halogen-free compliance requirements?

Yes, HS3G M6G is RoHS compliant and halogen-free per IEC 61249-2-21. The molding compound contains no brominated flame retardants, and the matte tin-plated leads satisfy J-STD-002 solderability standards. Certificate of Compliance (CoC) and material declarations are available upon request from Aetrix Electronics for full supply chain traceability.

What is the reverse recovery time (t_rr) specification for HS3G M6G?

The HS3G M6G has a maximum reverse recovery time (t_rr) of 50 ns under test conditions of I_F = 0.5 A, I_R = 1.0 A, and I_rr = 0.25 A. This value is measured per JEDEC JESD24-11 and confirmed across production lots. It enables efficient operation in switching-mode power supplies operating above 200 kHz without significant commutation loss.

Is HS3G M6G suitable for automated SMT placement?

Yes, HS3G M6G is explicitly designed for automated placement: it carries J-STD-020 Level 1 moisture sensitivity (no bake required), features coplanar matte tin leads compliant with J-STD-002, and uses the standardized DO-214AB (SMC) footprint. Its 0.210 g weight and symmetrical lead geometry ensure high placement yield on high-speed pick-and-place systems.

What does the "M6G" suffix indicate in HS3G M6G?

The "M6G" suffix in HS3G M6G is Taiwan Semiconductor's internal ordering code variant indicating tape-and-reel packaging (3,000 pcs/reel), green molding compound (G), and factory-specific traceability marking. It does not alter electrical specifications-the core device remains the HS3G rectifier with 400 V V_RRM, 3 A I_F, and DO-214AB package.
