Product details
Overview
MUR160HA0G from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 1 A, 600 V high-efficiency ultrafast recovery rectifier diode in DO-204AC (DO-15) package, featuring 1.25 V max forward voltage at 1 A/25°C, 50 ns reverse recovery time, and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive power conversion systems.
For engineers reviewing the MUR160HA0G datasheet, MUR160HA0G pinout, MUR160HA0G application, or MUR160HA0G equivalent, key selection criteria include repetitive peak reverse voltage (600 V), surge current rating (35 A), junction temperature range (–55°C to +175°C), thermal resistance (50°C/W), and RoHS/halogen-free compliance.
Technical Context
This single-die, unidirectional silicon rectifier operates with ultrafast recovery (trr ≤ 50 ns) under IF = 0.5 A, IR = 1.0 A, Irr = 0.25 A conditions, enabling high-frequency switching in DC-DC and SMPS topologies. Its low VF and high TJ max (175°C) support thermally constrained designs.
The device uses pure tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002, meets JESD201 Class 2 whisker resistance, and features cathode-band polarity marking. Package molding compound satisfies UL 94V-0 flammability rating.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for MUR160HA0G?
The MUR160HA0G has a maximum junction temperature (TJ) rating of +175°C, verified per AEC-Q101 stress testing. This allows reliable operation in under-hood automotive applications and high-ambient industrial environments without additional heatsinking. The device maintains specified electrical parameters up to this limit, with forward voltage decreasing to 1.05 V at 150°C.
Is MUR160HA0G pin-compatible with standard DO-15 rectifiers?
Yes, MUR160HA0G uses the industry-standard DO-204AC (DO-15) axial package with anode and cathode leads spaced 5.0–5.5 mm apart. Its mechanical dimensions and lead finish (pure tin, J-STD-002 compliant) match legacy DO-15 rectifiers, enabling direct PCB footprint reuse. Polarity is marked by a cathode band, consistent with JEDEC standards.
What does the "HA0G" suffix mean in MUR160HA0G?
The "H" denotes AEC-Q101 qualification; "A0" indicates ammo box packaging (1,500 units); and "G" signifies halogen-free, RoHS-compliant molding compound per IEC 61249-2-21. This full suffix confirms MUR160HA0G meets automotive reliability, packaging, and environmental requirements in a single orderable part number.
How does the reverse recovery time of MUR160HA0G compare to standard fast recovery diodes?
MUR160HA0G achieves 50 ns reverse recovery time (trr) under IF = 0.5 A, IR = 1.0 A, Irr = 0.25 A conditions-up to 2× faster than typical 600 V fast recovery diodes (100–200 ns). This directly reduces switching loss and EMI in 200–500 kHz converters, making MUR160HA0G especially valuable in space-constrained, high-frequency power designs.
Can MUR160HA0G be used in place of MUR160E from ON Semiconductor?
Yes, MUR160HA0G is a functionally equivalent, AEC-Q101-qualified alternative to ON Semiconductor's MUR160E. Both share identical 1 A / 600 V ratings, 50 ns trr, 1.25 V VF, DO-15 package, and automotive qualification. No PCB layout changes are needed, and thermal performance (RθJA = 50°C/W) matches precisely-making MUR160HA0G a validated second-source option.
