Product details
Overview
HSMLWH from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 1000V, 0.8A surface-mount high-efficiency rectifier diode in SOD-123W package, featuring glass-passivated junction, AEC-Q101 qualification, and 75ns reverse recovery time; used in automotive freewheeling and DC-DC converter snubber circuits.
For engineers reviewing the HSMLWH datasheet, HSMLWH pinout, HSMLWH application, or HSMLWH equivalent, key selection criteria include peak reverse voltage (1000V), forward voltage at 0.8A/25°C (1.31–1.70V), thermal resistance (RθJA = 86°C/W), and AEC-Q101 compliance for under-hood automotive use.
Technical Context
The HSMLWH is a single-die, unidirectional silicon rectifier optimized for high-voltage switching applications. Its 1000V VRRM, 20A IFSM, and 75ns trr support fast transient response in snubber and freewheeling paths where voltage clamping and low recovery loss are critical.
Designed with glass passivation and matte tin-plated leads, it meets JESD201 Class 2 whisker resistance and J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity Level 1. Thermal performance is characterized on a 5mm × 5mm Cu pad PCB, delivering RθJL = 34°C/W and RθJC = 35°C/W.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 1000 V - Maximum repetitive reverse blocking voltage; enables use in 800V DC bus systems with safety margin. |
| IF | 0.8 A - Continuous forward current rating; defines steady-state power dissipation capability (PD ≈ 1.0–1.4 W at 25°C). |
| IFSM | 20 A - Non-repetitive surge current (8.3 ms half-sine); supports inrush and fault-current handling in automotive power stages. |
| trr | 75 ns - Reverse recovery time; reduces switching losses and EMI in high-frequency DC-DC converters. |
| CJ | 5 pF - Junction capacitance at 1 MHz / 4 V; minimizes capacitive coupling and improves high-speed turn-off behavior. |
| TJ max | 150 °C - Maximum junction temperature; allows operation in under-hood environments with derating per Fig.1. |
| RθJA | 86 °C/W - Junction-to-ambient thermal resistance on standard test board; informs heatsinking requirements for sustained 0.8A load. |
Pinout & Package
Package: SOD-123W - Low-profile, surface-mount plastic case with cathode band polarity marking; UL 94V-0 rated molding compound; 0.016g weight; compatible with automated placement.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward current entry point | Connected to lower-potential side of load or switch node; requires trace width sufficient for 0.8A continuous + surge. |
| Cathode | Forward current exit / reverse-blocking terminal | Marked by band; ties to higher-potential rail or switch drain/source; must withstand 1000V transient spikes. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q101 qualified | Validated for automotive-grade reliability including temperature cycling, HTRB, and ESD; suitable for engine control and lighting modules. |
| Glass-passivated junction | Enhances long-term stability and humidity resistance; prevents leakage current drift in humid under-hood conditions. |
| Low-profile SOD-123W package | Enables compact layout in space-constrained modules (e.g., LED drivers, ECU power supplies) without sacrificing thermal performance. |
| Junction capacitance ≤5 pF | Reduces displacement current during high-dv/dt switching, lowering EMI generation in 100–500 kHz DC-DC topologies. |
| Moisture sensitivity Level 1 | Eliminates bake requirement prior to reflow; supports standard SMT assembly without process modification. |

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-1N5819HM3/85A | 40V VRRM, 1A IF, Schottky; no AEC-Q101, higher leakage at 125°C. | Not suitable for >100V reverse stress; limited to low-voltage DC-DC outputs. | Select only for <50V applications requiring ultra-low VF; not a substitute for HSMLWH's 1000V capability. |
| ON Semiconductor MUR105 | 50V VRRM, 1A IF, ultrafast recovery (~50ns); TO-220 package, no AEC-Q101. | Requires through-hole mounting and heatsink; incompatible with SMT automotive production flow. | Use only in non-automotive, higher-power bench prototypes where board space and qualification are not constraints. |
Compared with VS-1N5819HM3/85A and MUR105, the HSMLWH uniquely combines 1000V blocking, AEC-Q101 qualification, SOD-123W SMT compatibility, and automotive-grade thermal specs-making it the sole option for space-limited, high-reliability 12–48V system snubbers and freewheeling paths.

FAQ
What is the maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage rating for HSMLWH?
The HSMLWH has a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM) of 1000 V, verified per datasheet Table "ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM RATINGS" and confirmed across all electrical characterization curves. This rating ensures reliable operation in 800V DC bus applications with appropriate design margin. The HSMLWH maintains this rating across its full operating junction temperature range of –55°C to +150°C.
Is HSMLWH qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, HSMLWH is AEC-Q101 qualified, as explicitly stated in the FEATURES section of the official Taiwan Semiconductor datasheet. This qualification covers stress tests including temperature cycling, high-temperature reverse bias (HTRB), and electrostatic discharge (ESD), making HSMLWH suitable for under-hood automotive modules such as body control units and LED lighting drivers.
What is the forward voltage of HSMLWH at 0.8A and 25°C?
At 0.8A forward current and 25°C junction temperature, the HSMLWH exhibits a typical forward voltage (VF) of 1.31 V and a maximum of 1.70 V, per the ELECTRICAL SPECIFICATIONS table. These values are measured under pulse conditions (PW = 0.3ms) and reflect the device's silicon carbide–free, high-voltage planar junction design.
Does HSMLWH have a defined reverse recovery time?
Yes, HSMLWH has a specified reverse recovery time (trr) of 75 ns maximum, measured at IF = 0.5A, IR = 1.0A, and Irr = 0.25A. This value is documented in the ELECTRICAL SPECIFICATIONS table and applies to the HSJLWH through HSMLWH variants. It enables efficient operation in high-frequency switching circuits up to 500 kHz.
What package type does HSMLWH use, and is it RoHS compliant?
HSMLWH uses the SOD-123W surface-mount package, with matte tin-plated leads and UL 94V-0 flammability-rated molding compound. It is RoHS compliant and halogen-free per IEC 61249-2-21, as confirmed in the FEATURES section. Moisture sensitivity is rated Level 1 per J-STD-020, eliminating pre-reflow baking requirements.
