Product details
Overview
MUR190 from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 1 A, 900 V ultra-fast recovery rectifier diode in DO-204AC (DO-15) package, featuring 75 ns reverse recovery time, 1.70 V forward voltage at 1 A and 25°C, and 150°C maximum junction temperature. It serves as a high-efficiency freewheeling or output rectifier in DC-DC converters and switching inverters operating under high-voltage, medium-current conditions.
For engineers reviewing the MUR190 datasheet, MUR190 pinout, MUR190 application, or MUR190 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 900 V repetitive peak reverse voltage, low 15 pF junction capacitance, AEC-Q101 qualification option (MUR190H), thermal resistance of 50°C/W, and compatibility with lead-free reflow soldering per J-STD-002.
Technical Context
The MUR190 employs a planar epitaxial silicon structure optimized for ultra-fast soft recovery, minimizing switching losses and EMI in high-frequency SMPS topologies. Its 75 ns trr and 1.50 V VF at 150°C enable stable operation in continuous conduction mode (CCM) flyback and forward converters up to 200 kHz.
Thermal performance is defined by a 50°C/W junction-to-ambient resistance and a -55°C to +150°C operating junction range - narrower than the MUR160's 175°C rating - reflecting voltage-rated trade-offs in carrier lifetime control and doping profile.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar ultra-fast rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH1R06 | Same 1 A / 600 V rating but lower VRRM; 50 ns trr; 1.15 V VF @ 25°C | Not rated for 900 V systems; better suited for 230 VAC input supplies | Select when lower VF and faster trr outweigh voltage margin needs in <600 V designs |
| ES1J | 1 A / 600 V; 35 ns trr; 1.7 V VF; DO-204AL (DO-41) package | Smaller voltage rating and different package footprint; not drop-in compatible | Choose for space-constrained layouts where 600 V suffices and DO-41 mounting is preferred |
Compared with STTH1R06 and ES1J, the MUR190 uniquely delivers 900 V blocking capability in DO-15 while maintaining 75 ns recovery - critical for industrial 3-phase rectifier snubbers and 400 V+ EV auxiliary supplies where voltage margin and thermal robustness are non-negotiable.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for the MUR190?
The MUR190 has a maximum junction temperature (TJ max) of +150°C, as specified in its absolute maximum ratings table. This is lower than the MUR160's 175°C rating due to voltage-grade optimization. Engineers must ensure that power dissipation and ambient conditions keep the MUR190 junction below 150°C during operation - typically requiring heatsinking or airflow above 0.5 A average current in enclosed environments. The MUR190 datasheet confirms this limit applies across all operating conditions.
Is the MUR190 pin-compatible with other DO-204AC rectifiers like the 1N4007?
Yes, the MUR190 uses the standard DO-204AC (DO-15) axial package with anode and cathode leads arranged identically to the 1N4007, allowing direct PCB footprint reuse. However, it is not functionally interchangeable: the 1N4007 has 1000 V VRRM but 2 µs trr and 1.1 V VF, making it unsuitable for high-frequency switching. The MUR190's 75 ns trr and higher VF reflect its ultra-fast design - always verify circuit timing and thermal margins before substitution. The MUR190 datasheet explicitly references DO-204AC mechanical dimensions.
Does the MUR190 support lead-free soldering processes?
Yes, the MUR190 features pure tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002 for solderability, and its epoxy molding compound meets UL 94V-0 flammability standards. It is qualified for standard lead-free reflow profiles (peak 260°C, 10 s max), and the MUR190 datasheet confirms compatibility with IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1 (MSL-1). No pre-baking is required prior to assembly.
What is the reverse recovery time (trr) of the MUR190, and how is it measured?
The MUR190 has a typical reverse recovery time (trr) of 75 ns, measured under IF = 0.5 A, IR = 1.0 A, and Irr = 0.25 A per JEDEC test conditions. This value is confirmed in the Electrical Specifications table of the MUR190 datasheet. The measurement reflects the time required for minority carriers to clear after forward conduction, directly impacting switching loss in hard-switched topologies. Designers should use this trr value - not generic "fast" or "ultra-fast" labels - when calculating turn-off energy in SPICE simulations or thermal models for the MUR190.
Is there an AEC-Q101 qualified version of the MUR190 available?
Yes, the MUR190H is the AEC-Q101 qualified variant of the MUR190, indicated by the "H" suffix in the ordering code. It undergoes additional stress testing including temperature cycling, high-temperature operating life, and unbiased highly accelerated stress testing (uHAST) per AEC-Q101 Rev D. The MUR190H shares identical electrical specs and DO-15 packaging with the standard MUR190 but is certified for automotive under-hood applications such as on-board chargers and body control modules. Full qualification data is documented in TSC's AEC-Q101 report for MUR190H.
