Product details
Overview
MUR340S from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 3A, 400V ultra-fast recovery surface-mount rectifier in DO-214AB (SMC) package, featuring 50ns reverse recovery time, 1.25V max forward voltage at 3A/25°C, and 75A peak surge current-designed for high-frequency freewheeling and switching-mode power supplies in telecom and computing infrastructure.
For engineers reviewing the MUR340S datasheet, MUR340S pinout, MUR340S application, or MUR340S equivalent, key selection criteria include its 400V VRRM, ultra-fast trr of 50ns, thermal resistance of 11°C/W, and compatibility with automated SMT assembly per J-STD-020 Level 1 moisture sensitivity.
Technical Context
The MUR340S employs a glass-passivated silicon junction optimized for high-speed switching, delivering low stored charge and minimal reverse recovery loss. Its single-die configuration supports unidirectional conduction with cathode-band polarity marking and operates reliably from –55°C to +175°C junction temperature.
Designed for high-frequency DC/DC conversion, it sustains 3A average forward current with derating above 75°C ambient and withstands 8.3ms half-sine surge currents up to 75A without degradation. The device meets RoHS and halogen-free requirements per IEC 61249-2-21.

|---|---|
Use Scenario: Rectifying 380VAC-derived intermediate bus in telecom rectifier modules operating at 200 kHz switching frequency. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Output rectifier in active-clamp forward topology, handling 3A continuous load with <50ns turn-off to minimize cross-conduction loss. Use Value: 400V VRRM provides 20% margin over 380VAC-derived 540V peak; 50ns trr cuts diode switching loss by 35% versus 100ns alternatives. | Use Scenario: Freewheeling path in multiphase buck converters supplying CPU core voltage (0.8–1.2V @ 100+ A). IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-loss synchronous rectifier companion; conducts during low-side FET off-time with minimal reverse recovery tail. Use Value: 1.25V VF at 3A limits conduction loss to <3.75W; DO-214AB footprint allows dense layout adjacent to MOSFETs. |
| Industrial PLC Power Supply | 5G Base Station PSU |

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Bridge leg diode in PFC front-end, enduring 75A surge during cold-start and sustaining 3A average current at 70°C ambient. Use Value: 175°C TJmax and 11°C/W RθJL enable operation without heatsink at full load in enclosed enclosures. | Use Scenario: Secondary-side rectification in GaN-based 48V–12V intermediate bus converter for massive MIMO radio units. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-efficiency output diode synchronized with 350 kHz GaN switching, minimizing EMI from slow recovery edges. Use Value: 50ns trr suppresses high-frequency ringing; halogen-free construction complies with 5G equipment material declarations. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar ultra-fast rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH3L04S | 400V VRRM, 3A IF, 55ns trr, TO-277 package (smaller footprint than DO-214AB) | Higher thermal resistance (15°C/W) limits power density in compact layouts | Preferred where board space is constrained but thermal margin exists |
| ON Semi MUR340 | Identical 400V/3A/50ns specs; same DO-214AB package; lead-free matte tin plating | No functional difference; minor packaging variation (tape/reel carrier width) | Drop-in alternative with identical electrical and mechanical behavior |
Compared with STTH3L04S and ON Semi MUR340, the MUR340S offers identical performance to the latter while providing superior thermal resistance (11°C/W vs. 15°C/W) over the STTH3L04S-making it optimal for thermally demanding, high-power-density telecom and server applications.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for the MUR340S?
The MUR340S has a maximum junction temperature (TJmax) of +175°C, enabling reliable operation in high-ambient environments such as enclosed telecom rectifiers or industrial control cabinets. This rating is validated per JEDEC test conditions and supports extended lifetime at elevated temperatures when used within its derated current envelope. Thermal design must account for RθJL = 11°C/W and PCB copper area.
Does the MUR340S meet RoHS and halogen-free requirements?
Yes, the MUR340S is RoHS compliant and halogen-free per IEC 61249-2-21. Taiwan Semiconductor certifies that the molding compound contains no brominated flame retardants or chlorine-based additives, and all plating meets EU Directive 2011/65/EU. Full compliance documentation is available upon request for MUR340S procurement.
What is the reverse recovery time (trr) of the MUR340S and under what test conditions?
The MUR340S has a typical reverse recovery time (trr) of 50 ns, measured at IF = 0.5 A, IR = 1.0 A, IRR = 0.25 A, per the official Taiwan Semiconductor datasheet. This value is confirmed across production lots and applies to the full MUR340S temperature range (–55°C to +175°C), making it suitable for >100 kHz switching applications.
Is the MUR340S compatible with standard SMT reflow profiles?
Yes, the MUR340S is rated J-STD-020 Level 1 for moisture sensitivity, meaning it can be placed and reflowed using standard Pb-free or SnPb profiles without prior baking. Its matte tin-plated leads comply with J-STD-002 for solderability, and the DO-214AB package withstands peak reflow temperatures up to 260°C for 30 seconds.
What is the forward voltage drop (VF) of the MUR340S at 3A and 150°C junction temperature?
At IF = 3 A and TJ = 150°C, the MUR340S exhibits a maximum forward voltage drop of 1.050 V, as specified in the Taiwan Semiconductor datasheet. This lower VF at elevated temperature improves system efficiency during sustained high-load operation compared to devices with higher temperature coefficients.
