Product details
Overview
HSKLW from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 800V repetitive peak reverse voltage, 0.8A average forward current surface-mount silicon rectifier in SOD-123W package, featuring 1.31V max forward voltage at 0.8A/25°C and 75ns max reverse recovery time, used in switching mode power supplies and freewheeling paths.
For engineers reviewing the HSKLW datasheet, HSKLW pinout, HSKLW application, or HSKLW equivalent, key selection factors include its 800V VRRM, low-profile SOD-123W footprint, 1.31V VF at rated current, 75ns trr for high-frequency operation, and moisture sensitivity level 1 compliance.
Technical Context
The HSKLW is a single-die, glass-passivated silicon PN junction rectifier optimized for high-voltage, medium-current DC/DC and SMPS applications. Its 800V VRRM rating and 75ns reverse recovery time support operation in 100–500 kHz switching topologies with minimal switching loss.
Thermal performance is defined by RθJL = 34°C/W and RθJA = 86°C/W on a 5mm × 5mm Cu pad PCB, enabling 0.8A continuous conduction up to +150°C junction temperature with appropriate board layout.
Key Specifications

| IF | 0.8 A - Continuous average forward current; sets maximum steady-state output capability in rectification paths |
| VF (max) | 1.31 V @ 0.8A, 25°C - Forward voltage drop directly impacts conduction loss and thermal rise in high-duty-cycle operation |
| trr (max) | 75 ns - Reverse recovery time determines switching loss and EMI behavior in hard-switched converters above 100 kHz |
| IFSM | 20 A - Non-repetitive surge current rating; supports inrush and transient overload handling without failure |
| TJ (max) | +150 °C - Maximum junction temperature enables reliable operation in thermally constrained industrial enclosures |
| CJ | 5 pF @ 1 MHz, 4 V - Low junction capacitance minimizes capacitive coupling and improves high-frequency noise immunity |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-voltage rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| HSMLW | 1000 V VRRM, same IF/trr/package; higher VF (1.70 V max) | Better suited for 600–800 V bus systems; increased conduction loss at 0.8A | Select HSMLW only if system requires >800 V reverse margin; otherwise HSKLW offers optimal VF/VRRM trade-off |
| HSJLW | 600 V VRRM, identical VF/trr/package; lower surge rating (15 A IFSM) | Targeted at 200–400 V DC bus applications; insufficient margin for 400 V+ systems | Use HSJLW where cost is prioritized and reverse voltage stays below 420 V; not safe for 800 V design reuse |
Compared with HSMLW and HSJLW, the HSKLW delivers the optimal balance of 800 V blocking capability, 1.31 V forward drop, and 75 ns recovery for 400–600 V bus applications-avoiding unnecessary conduction loss (HSMLW) or inadequate voltage margin (HSJLW).

FAQ
What is the maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM) for HSKLW?
The HSKLW has a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM) of 800 V, as confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table of the official Taiwan Semiconductor datasheet. This rating defines the highest reverse voltage the device can block repeatedly without breakdown under normal operating conditions at TA = 25°C. The HSKLW is part of the HSxLW series where 'x' denotes voltage grade: HSDLW (200 V), HSGLW (400 V), HSJLW (600 V), HSKLW (800 V), and HSMLW (1000 V).
Does HSKLW have a specified reverse recovery time (trr)?
Yes, the HSKLW has a maximum reverse recovery time (trr) of 75 ns under test conditions of IF = 0.5 A, IR = 1.0 A, and Irr = 0.25 A, as stated in the Electrical Specifications section. This value applies to all variants from HSJLW through HSMLW and reflects the device's suitability for high-frequency switching applications such as 200–500 kHz DC/DC converters where fast recovery minimizes switching loss and EMI.
What package type is used for HSKLW?
The HSKLW uses the SOD-123W surface-mount package, a low-profile variant of the standard SOD-123 with enhanced thermal performance and moisture resistance. Per the Mechanical Data section, it features matte tin-plated leads, UL 94V-0 compliant molding compound, polarity indicated by cathode band, and a typical weight of 0.016 g. The SOD-123W footprint is compatible with automated pick-and-place equipment and meets J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1.
What is the forward voltage (VF) of HSKLW at full rated current?
The HSKLW exhibits a maximum forward voltage (VF) of 1.31 V at IF = 0.8 A and TJ = 25°C, and 1.30 V at the same current but elevated junction temperature of 125°C. These values are explicitly listed in the Electrical Specifications table for HSJLW, HSKLW, and HSMLW. The typical VF is 1.09 V at 0.8 A/125°C, confirming its behavior as a high-voltage, moderately doped silicon rectifier-not a Schottky or ultra-fast type.
Is HSKLW RoHS and halogen-free compliant?
Yes, the HSKLW is RoHS compliant and halogen-free in accordance with IEC 61249-2-21, as stated in the FEATURES section of the Taiwan Semiconductor datasheet. The device uses matte tin-plated leads and a halogen-free molding compound, satisfying environmental regulations for sale in the EU, Japan, and other regulated markets. Its moisture sensitivity level is rated at Level 1 per J-STD-020, confirming no bake requirement prior to reflow soldering.
