Product details
Overview
MUR320S from Taiwan Semiconductor is an ultra-fast recovery surface-mount rectifier diode with 200 V repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM), 3 A average forward current (IF), and 25 ns reverse recovery time (trr), designed for high-frequency switching mode power supplies in telecom and computing infrastructure.
For engineers reviewing the MUR320S datasheet, MUR320S pinout, MUR320S application, or MUR320S equivalent, key selection criteria include its DO-214AB (SMC) package compatibility, 0.875 V forward voltage at 3 A/25°C, 75 A non-repetitive surge rating, and cathode-band polarity marking for PCB layout verification.
Technical Context
The MUR320S is a single-die, silicon planar junction rectifier optimized for high-efficiency DC-DC conversion where fast switching and low conduction loss are critical. Its glass-passivated chip junction ensures stable operation under thermal cycling and humidity exposure.
It operates across a junction temperature range of –55°C to +175°C and exhibits 11°C/W junction-to-lead thermal resistance, enabling reliable performance in compact, thermally constrained SMT layouts without forced airflow.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar ultra-fast rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH3L06S | Same DO-214AB package, 600 V VRRM, 35 ns trr, 0.95 V VF @ 3 A | Higher voltage rating suits 400 V bus designs; slower recovery increases switching loss at >200 kHz | Select when higher reverse margin is required and frequency ≤150 kHz |
| MBR320F | DO-214AC (SMA) package, 200 V VRRM, Schottky architecture, 0.52 V VF, no reverse recovery | Lower VF improves light-load efficiency but limits max TJ to 125°C and blocks <100 V applications | Prefer for low-voltage, low-TJ designs where zero Qrr outweighs thermal derating |
Compared with STTH3L06S and MBR320F, the MUR320S delivers optimal balance of 200 V rating, 25 ns speed, and 175°C capability-making it ideal for thermally demanding, medium-voltage, high-frequency rectification where Schottky limitations or slower recovery are unacceptable.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for the MUR320S?
The MUR320S has a maximum junction temperature (TJ) rating of +175°C, verified per absolute maximum ratings table. This allows operation in high-ambient environments such as enclosed industrial power supplies or telecom rectifiers without active cooling. The MUR320S maintains specified electrical performance up to this limit, provided thermal design respects the 11°C/W junction-to-lead resistance and appropriate PCB copper area is allocated.
Does the MUR320S have a RoHS-compliant and halogen-free construction?
Yes, the MUR320S is RoHS compliant and halogen-free per IEC 61249-2-21. Its molding compound meets UL 94V-0 flammability standards, and terminals are matte tin plated per J-STD-002 solderability requirements. These attributes are confirmed in the official Taiwan Semiconductor datasheet revision J2212 and apply specifically to the MUR320S ordering code.
What is the reverse recovery time (trr) of the MUR320S and under what test conditions is it measured?
The MUR320S reverse recovery time is 25 ns, measured at IF = 0.5 A, IR = 1.0 A, IRR = 0.25 A, per the Electrical Specifications table. This value is guaranteed across the full production lot and reflects actual device behavior in high-frequency switching circuits. The MUR320S achieves this performance via optimized doping and lifetime control in its ultra-fast silicon junction.
Can the MUR320S be used as a direct replacement for the MUR315S in an existing design?
Yes, the MUR320S is a direct voltage-grade upgrade from the MUR315S (150 V) to 200 V VRRM while retaining identical package (DO-214AB), pinout, thermal characteristics, and forward conduction parameters. No PCB or schematic changes are needed. The MUR320S maintains the same 25 ns trr, 0.875 V VF, and 75 A IFSM, making it a seamless drop-in solution for enhanced reverse voltage margin.
What does the "S" suffix in MUR320S indicate in Taiwan Semiconductor's ordering nomenclature?
The "S" suffix in MUR320S denotes surface-mount packaging in the DO-214AB (SMC) case, distinguishing it from through-hole variants. It confirms tape-and-reel packaging (3,000 units per reel), matte tin-plated leads, and compliance with J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1. This designation applies exclusively to the MUR320S and is not interchangeable with other suffixes like "A" or "G" in the same family.
