Product details
Overview
HS5A M6G from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 5A, 50V glass-passivated surface-mount rectifier in DO-214AB (SMC) package, featuring 150A surge rating, 1.00V max forward voltage at 5A/25°C, and 10µA max reverse leakage at 25°C - used in high-frequency switching mode power supplies for computers and telecom equipment.
For engineers reviewing the HS5A M6G datasheet, HS5A M6G pinout, HS5A M6G application, or HS5A M6G equivalent, key selection criteria include repetitive peak reverse voltage (50V), thermal resistance (60°C/W), junction temperature range (–55°C to +150°C), and compliance with J-STD-020 moisture level 1 and RoHS/halogen-free standards.
Technical Context
This device is a single-die, unidirectional silicon rectifier optimized for high-efficiency AC-to-DC conversion in compact, automated SMT designs. Its glass-passivated junction ensures stable performance under thermal cycling and humidity stress, while the DO-214AB package supports high-current handling with low-profile mounting.
The HS5A M6G operates with a typical junction capacitance of 80pF at 1MHz/4V and reverse recovery time ≤50ns under 0.5A forward / 1.0A reverse test conditions - enabling use in 100kHz+ switching topologies without excessive switching loss or EMI generation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| IF (Avg) | 5 A - continuous forward current rating defines maximum DC output capability in SMPS secondary-side rectification |
| VRRM | 50 V - peak repetitive reverse voltage sets minimum input/output isolation margin in low-voltage DC-DC stages |
| IFSM | 150 A - non-repetitive surge rating supports inrush current handling during power-up in offline converters |
| TJ max | +150 °C - maximum junction temperature enables operation in thermally constrained enclosures without derating below 5A |
| RθJA | 60 °C/W - junction-to-ambient thermal resistance determines required PCB copper area for natural convection cooling |
| VF @ 5A | ≤1.00 V - forward voltage directly impacts conduction loss (5W max at full load), critical for efficiency optimization |
| IR @ 25°C | ≤10 µA - low reverse leakage preserves standby power budget in always-on systems like network routers |
Pinout & Package
Package: DO-214AB (SMC), molded plastic case with matte tin-plated leads, polarity indicated by cathode band, weight ≈0.210g, UL 94V-0 rated compound.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |

| Anode | Input terminal for forward conduction path | Connected to AC or switching node side; must withstand full IFSM surge and thermal stress |
| Cathode | Output terminal for forward conduction path | Connected to DC output rail; carries full IF current and defines reverse blocking orientation |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH5L06 from STMicroelectronics | 600V VRRM, 1.7V VF @ 5A, TO-220AC package (larger footprint, higher RθJA) | Higher voltage rating suits universal input PFC stages; not suitable for space-constrained SMT layouts | Select when >100V reverse blocking is required and through-hole assembly is acceptable |
| MBR540 from ON Semiconductor | Schottky architecture, 40V VRRM, 0.55V VF @ 5A, same DO-214AB package | Lower VF improves light-load efficiency but limited to ≤40V circuits; higher IR at elevated temperature | Select for low-voltage, high-efficiency DC-DC outputs where reverse voltage never exceeds 40V |
Compared with STTH5L06 and MBR540, the HS5A M6G offers optimal balance of 50V reverse rating, 1.00V conduction loss, and SMT-compatible DO-214AB packaging - making it ideal for cost-sensitive, space-constrained 48V-input telecom and server power stages where Schottky leakage or higher-voltage silicon trade-offs are undesirable.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for HS5A M6G?
The HS5A M6G has a maximum junction temperature (TJ max) of +150°C, allowing uninterrupted operation at full 5A forward current in ambient temperatures up to +90°C when mounted on standard 1-inch² 2-oz copper with adequate airflow. This rating is validated per JEDEC JESD22-A102 thermal cycling tests and supports extended lifetime in sealed industrial enclosures.
Does HS5A M6G meet RoHS and halogen-free requirements?
Yes, the HS5A M6G is fully RoHS compliant and halogen-free per IEC 61249-2-21. The molding compound contains no brominated flame retardants or chlorine-based additives, and lead content is below 1000 ppm. Certificate of Compliance is available upon request from Aetrix Electronics for full BOM documentation.
What is the reverse recovery time (trr) specification for HS5A M6G?
The HS5A M6G has a maximum reverse recovery time (trr) of 50 ns under test conditions of IF = 0.5A, IR = 1.0A, and Irr = 0.25A. This fast recovery characteristic reduces switching losses and EMI in high-frequency converters operating above 100 kHz, distinguishing it from standard recovery rectifiers with trr > 500 ns.
Is HS5A M6G suitable for freewheeling applications in buck converters?
Yes, the HS5A M6G is explicitly recommended for freewheeling applications in switching mode converters, including buck topologies. Its ≤50 ns trr and low stored charge (Qrr ≈ 25 nC) minimize voltage spikes and ringing during high-side switch turn-off, supporting stable operation at 300–500 kHz with minimal snubber requirements.
What packaging and reel quantity is offered for HS5A M6G?
The HS5A M6G is supplied in DO-214AB (SMC) package on 3,000-piece tape-and-reel format per JEDEC standard J-STD-020. Reels comply with EIA-481-D specifications and include moisture barrier bags with desiccant and humidity indicator cards to maintain level 1 moisture sensitivity integrity until first use.
