Product details
Overview
PU1BA from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 1A, 100V ultra-fast surface-mount rectifier diode in DO-214AC (SMA) package, featuring 25 ns reverse recovery time, 0.84 V forward voltage at 1.0 A/25°C, and 45 A surge current capability. It serves as a high-efficiency freewheeling or snubber diode in DC/DC converters operating up to several hundred kHz.
For engineers reviewing the PU1BA datasheet, PU1BA pinout, PU1BA application, or PU1BA equivalent, key selection criteria include its 100 V repetitive peak reverse voltage, ultra-fast trr ≤25 ns, low VF of 0.84 V at rated current, thermal resistance RθJA of 76 °C/W on standard PCB, and RoHS/halogen-free compliance for industrial power conversion designs.
Technical Context
The PU1BA employs planar junction technology to achieve fast switching with low stored charge, enabling efficient operation in high-frequency hard-switched topologies. Its single-die configuration and DO-214AC package support automated placement and reflow soldering per J-STD-002.
Thermal performance is characterized by RθJL = 20 °C/W and RθJC = 23 °C/W, validated on a 5 mm × 5 mm copper pad test board. Reverse recovery parameters-Qrr = 27 nC, IRM = 3.4 A, and trr = 19–25 ns-are measured under standardized conditions (IF = 0.5–1.0 A, di/dt = 50–200 A/µs).
Key Specifications

Applications
| DC/DC Converter Secondary Rectification | Snubber Circuit Clamp Diode |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Used in the secondary side of isolated flyback or forward converters delivering up to 1A at ≤24V output. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Freewheeling rectifier conducting during transformer reset phase; conducts unidirectionally with minimal reverse recovery tail. Use Value: 25 ns trr and 0.84 V VF reduce switching losses and improve efficiency over standard FRDs in 300–600 kHz designs. | Use Scenario: Placed across MOSFET drain-source or transformer primary to absorb turn-off energy in hard-switched SMPS. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Clamp diode conducting only during brief voltage spikes; requires fast turn-on and low Qrr to minimize ringback. Use Value: Qrr = 27 nC and IRM = 3.4 A limit snubber dissipation and suppress voltage overshoot more effectively than slower alternatives. |
| High-Frequency AC-DC Adapter Output Stage | Industrial PLC Power Supply Input Rectification |
Use Scenario: Final-stage rectification in compact 12–24V, 1A wall adapters operating at ≥400 kHz. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Output rectifier handling continuous 1A load with pulsed conduction duty; must sustain 175°C junction temperature. Use Value: TJ max = +175°C and RθJA = 76 °C/W allow full-rated current in sealed enclosures without forced air cooling. | Use Scenario: Input bridge leg or auxiliary supply rectifier in programmable logic controller power modules. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Line-frequency or PFC-stage rectifier subjected to thermal cycling and long-term reliability requirements. Use Value: Planar construction and JESD 201 Class 2 whisker resistance ensure stable performance over 10+ years in industrial environments. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar ultra-fast rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH1R06U | Same 1A/600V rating but higher VF (1.15 V), slower trr (35 ns), larger DO-214AC variant with different thermal profile | Higher voltage margin (600 V) suits wider input ranges; less suitable for low-VF, high-frequency optimization | Select when system requires >100 V VR margin or legacy layout compatibility; avoid if minimizing conduction loss is critical |
| MBR1100 | Schottky structure: VF ≈ 0.8 V, zero trr, but limited to 100 V VR and higher IR (100 µA @ 25°C) | Better efficiency at light loads; unsuitable for high-temperature or high-reliability reverse-biased hold applications | Prefer for low-noise, low-loss 12–24V outputs below 100°C ambient; not recommended where reverse leakage or TJ >125°C matters |
Compared with STTH1R06U and MBR1100, the PU1BA delivers optimal balance of low VF (0.84 V), ultra-fast trr (≤25 ns), and 100 V VR in a proven industrial-grade DO-214AC package-making it ideal for cost-sensitive, high-frequency 1A DC/DC and snubber roles where Schottky leakage or FRD sluggishness are limiting.

FAQ
What is the maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM) for PU1BA?
The PU1BA has a VRRM of 100 V, verified per Taiwan Semiconductor's A2210 datasheet. This rating defines the highest continuous reverse voltage the device can block without breakdown. Exceeding this value risks avalanche failure, especially under transient conditions. The PU1BA is therefore suited for 48 V nominal bus systems or 24 V output stages where reflected spikes remain within 100 V.
Does PU1BA have a specified reverse recovery time (trr), and under what test conditions?
Yes, PU1BA specifies trr ≤25 ns, measured under IF = 0.5 A, IR = 1.0 A, and Irr = 0.25 A per the datasheet. An alternate condition (IF = 1.0 A, di/dt = 50 A/µs, VR = 30 V) yields trr ≤34 ns. These values confirm its classification as an ultra-fast rectifier, critical for minimizing switching loss in high-frequency DC/DC converters using the PU1BA.
Is PU1BA RoHS and halogen-free compliant?
Yes, PU1BA is RoHS compliant and halogen-free per IEC 61249-2-21, as stated in the official Taiwan Semiconductor documentation. The molding compound meets UL 94V-0 flammability rating, and terminals are matte tin-plated per J-STD-002. These qualifications make PU1BA suitable for consumer, industrial, and automotive-adjacent applications requiring strict environmental compliance.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to ambient (RθJA) for PU1BA, and how is it measured?
PU1BA has RθJA = 76 °C/W, measured on a standard JEDEC test board with a 5 mm × 5 mm copper pad. This value assumes natural convection and defines the temperature rise above ambient per watt of power dissipated. At 1 A and 0.84 V VF, the PU1BA dissipates ~0.84 W, resulting in ~64 °C rise-well within its +175 °C TJ max rating when ambient stays below +110 °C.
How is polarity marked on the PU1BA DO-214AC package?
Polarity on the PU1BA is indicated by a cathode band printed on the body of the DO-214AC (SMA) package. The banded end corresponds to the cathode terminal, while the opposite end is the anode. This marking aligns with industry-standard diode orientation and must be observed during PCB layout and assembly to ensure correct forward conduction and reverse blocking behavior in circuits using PU1BA.
