Product details
Overview
HS3M M6G from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 3A, 1000V high-efficiency surface-mount silicon rectifier diode in DO-214AB (SMC) package, featuring 1.7V max forward voltage at 3A, 75ns reverse recovery time, and 50pF junction capacitance - used for freewheeling and high-frequency rectification in SMPS and telecom inverters.
For engineers reviewing the HS3M M6G datasheet, HS3M M6G pinout, HS3M M6G application, or HS3M M6G equivalent, key selection criteria include peak reverse voltage (1000V), surge current rating (150A), thermal resistance (60°C/W), moisture sensitivity level (J-STD-020 Level 1), and RoHS/halogen-free compliance.
Technical Context
This device is a single-die, glass-passivated, planar-junction silicon rectifier optimized for high-speed switching applications. Its 1000V VRRM, 75ns trr, and low 50pF CJ support efficient operation in 50–500 kHz SMPS topologies where fast recovery and low capacitive loading are critical.
The DO-214AB (SMC) package enables automated placement and delivers 60°C/W junction-to-ambient thermal resistance. Cathode band polarity marking, matte tin-plated leads (J-STD-002 compliant), and JESD201 Class 2 whisker resistance ensure robust manufacturability and long-term reliability.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 1000 V - supports primary-side rectification in offline 85–265V AC inputs with ≥2× safety margin |
| IF | 3 A continuous - rated for sustained conduction in 30–60W power stages |
| IFSM | 150 A (8.3ms half-sine) - withstands inrush and transient surges without failure |
| VF (max) | 1.7 V @ 3A, 25°C - limits conduction loss to ≤5.1W at full load, reducing heatsink requirements |
| trr | 75 ns - minimizes switching losses and EMI in high-frequency converters (>100 kHz) |
| CJ | 50 pF @ 4V - reduces capacitive coupling and dv/dt-induced false triggering in gate-drive circuits |
| RθJA | 60 °C/W - enables natural-convection cooling on 1-in² 2-oz copper with <30°C rise at 3A |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-voltage rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH3L06S | 600V VRRM, 70ns trr, 65pF CJ, same DO-214AB package | Limited to ≤600V systems; unsuitable for 1000V designs like industrial PFC front-ends | Select only when system VRRM requirement is ≤600V and lower CJ is not critical |
| ON Semi MUR3100CT | 1000V VRRM, but dual common-cathode configuration, TO-220AC package, 100ns trr | Requires through-hole mounting and larger footprint; higher thermal resistance (40°C/W case-to-ambient, not junction-to-ambient) | Choose only if through-hole assembly is mandated or dual-diode topology is needed |
Compared with STTH3L06S and MUR3100CT, the HS3M M6G uniquely combines 1000V rating, SMD DO-214AB packaging, 75ns recovery, and 50pF capacitance - making it optimal for space-constrained, high-frequency, high-voltage rectification where thermal and EMI performance are prioritized.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for HS3M M6G?
The HS3M M6G has a maximum junction temperature (TJ) of +150°C, verified per absolute maximum ratings in the official TSC datasheet. This allows operation in high-ambient environments such as enclosed server chassis or sealed telecom enclosures. Derating curves confirm usable current down to 1.8A at 125°C ambient, ensuring design margin for thermal transients. The HS3M M6G must be mounted on adequate copper area to maintain this limit under full load.
Is HS3M M6G compatible with lead-free reflow profiles?
Yes, the HS3M M6G is qualified for lead-free reflow per J-STD-020, with a peak temperature rating of 260°C (10-second duration). Its matte tin-plated leads meet J-STD-002 solderability requirements, and its Level 1 moisture sensitivity eliminates pre-bake steps. The device's glass passivation and UL 94V-0 molding compound ensure reliability through standard Pb-free thermal cycles without delamination or parametric shift.
Does HS3M M6G have a specified reverse recovery charge (Qrr)?
No, the official TSC datasheet for HS3M M6G does not specify Qrr; only trr = 75ns (max) is provided under IF = 0.5A, IR = 1.0A, Irr = 0.25A conditions. Designers requiring Qrr should measure it empirically or select alternatives with published Qrr data. The HS3M M6G's low 50pF CJ and fast trr indicate moderate stored charge, but exact Qrr remains unspecified in all released documentation.
Can HS3M M6G replace HS3J M6G in an existing design?
Yes, HS3M M6G is a direct voltage-grade upgrade from HS3J M6G (600V → 1000V), sharing identical DO-214AB package, pinout, thermal resistance, and soldering characteristics. Forward voltage (1.7V max) and reverse recovery (75ns) are identical between both variants. No PCB or layout changes are needed - only verify that the higher VRRM aligns with system overvoltage protection strategy.
What is the meaning of "M6G" in HS3M M6G?
"M6G" is Taiwan Semiconductor's internal ordering suffix: "M" denotes the 1000V VRRM variant within the HS3x family; "6" indicates tape-and-reel packaging (3,000 pcs/reel); "G" signifies green (halogen-free) compound per IEC 61249-2-21. This matches TSC's official ordering code structure shown in the datasheet's "ORDERING INFORMATION" section for HS3x devices.
