Product details
Overview
MUR440SHM6G from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 4A, 400V ultra-fast recovery surface-mount rectifier in DO-214AB (SMC) package, featuring 50 ns reverse recovery time, 1.25 V max forward voltage at 4A/25°C, and 10 μA max reverse leakage at rated VR and 25°C. It serves as a freewheeling diode in high-frequency switching-mode power supplies for telecom infrastructure.
For engineers reviewing the MUR440SHM6G datasheet, MUR440SHM6G pinout, MUR440SHM6G application, or MUR440SHM6G equivalent, key selection criteria include its 400V VRRM rating, 75A IFSM surge capability, 8.5°C/W RθJC thermal resistance, and DO-214AB mechanical compatibility with automated SMT assembly lines.
Technical Context
This device implements a single-die silicon PN junction with glass passivated chip construction, enabling stable operation up to 175°C junction temperature. Its ultra-fast trr of 50 ns minimizes switching losses in DC-DC converters operating above 100 kHz.
The MUR440SHM6G is rated for repetitive peak reverse voltage of 400 V and RMS reverse voltage of 280 V, with forward voltage tightly specified at ≤1.25 V under 4 A DC load at 25°C - critical for efficiency-critical secondary-side rectification in isolated flyback and forward topologies.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar ultra-fast rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH4L06S | Same DO-214AB package; 4 A/600 V; trr = 45 ns; VF = 1.25 V @ 4 A | Higher VRRM margin for 380 VAC systems; slightly faster recovery | Preferred where 600 V rating is required for universal input or surge tolerance |
| ES4D | DO-214AB; 4 A/200 V; trr = 35 ns; VF = 0.92 V @ 4 A | Lower VRRM and VF - optimized for low-voltage, high-efficiency DC-DC secondaries | Select when operating below 150 V reverse bias and prioritizing conduction loss over voltage headroom |
Compared with STTH4L06S and ES4D, the MUR440SHM6G provides optimal balance of 400 V rating, 50 ns trr, and thermal robustness for mid-range telecom and industrial SMPS - avoiding overdesign while ensuring margin against line surges and thermal drift.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for MUR440SHM6G?
The MUR440SHM6G has a maximum junction temperature (TJ MAX) of +175°C, verified per absolute maximum ratings in the official Taiwan Semiconductor datasheet F2102. This rating enables reliable operation in enclosed industrial enclosures and telecom base stations where ambient temperatures exceed 70°C. The device's RθJC of 8.5°C/W supports effective heat transfer to the PCB, making MUR440SHM6G suitable for thermally constrained layouts without external heatsinks.
Does MUR440SHM6G have a halogen-free construction?
Yes, MUR440SHM6G is halogen-free in accordance with IEC 61249-2-21, as confirmed in the "Features" section of the Taiwan Semiconductor datasheet F2102. The molding compound contains no bromine or chlorine-based flame retardants, and the device is also RoHS compliant. This makes MUR440SHM6G acceptable for green electronics manufacturing programs requiring strict material declarations and environmental compliance documentation.
What is the reverse recovery time (trr) specification for MUR440SHM6G?
The reverse recovery time (trr) for MUR440SHM6G is 50 ns, measured under IF = 0.5 A, IR = 1.0 A, and Irr = 0.25 A conditions per the Electrical Specifications table in the F2102 datasheet. This value applies across the MUR440S variant and is distinct from the 25 ns trr of the MUR420S. The 50 ns trr directly contributes to reduced switching loss in high-frequency converters, confirming MUR440SHM6G's suitability for 100–500 kHz SMPS designs.
Is MUR440SHM6G compatible with lead-free reflow soldering processes?
Yes, MUR440SHM6G features matte tin-plated leads qualified per J-STD-002 for solderability and is rated for moisture sensitivity level 1 per J-STD-020 - meaning it can be placed directly into lead-free reflow ovens (peak temperature up to 260°C) without pre-baking. The DO-214AB package and terminal finish ensure consistent wetting and joint integrity in automated SMT lines, supporting high-yield manufacturing of MUR440SHM6G-equipped power boards.
What does the 'HM6G' suffix indicate in MUR440SHM6G?
The 'HM6G' suffix in MUR440SHM6G denotes Taiwan Semiconductor's internal packaging and environmental coding: 'H' indicates halogen-free compound, 'M6' specifies tape-and-reel packaging with 3,000 units per reel, and 'G' signifies green (lead-free/RoHS-compliant) finish. This full part number matches the ordering code defined in the "Ordering Information" section of the F2102 datasheet and confirms the device's compliance status and packaging format for procurement and logistics planning.
