Product details
Overview
PU1BLW from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 1A, 100V ultra-fast surface-mount rectifier diode in SOD-123W package, featuring 25ns reverse recovery time, 0.84V forward voltage at 1A/25°C, and 45A 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 PU1BLW datasheet, PU1BLW pinout, PU1BLW application, or PU1BLW equivalent, key selection criteria include VRRM = 100V, IF = 1A, trr ≤ 25ns, thermal resistance RθJA = 80°C/W, and SOD-123W footprint compatibility with automated placement.
Technical Context
This single-die planar silicon rectifier is optimized for high-frequency switching applications where low forward voltage drop and fast reverse recovery minimize conduction and switching losses. Its 19ns typical trr and 27nC Qrr support efficient operation in hard-switched topologies.
The device operates across –55°C to +175°C junction temperature range, with RθJL = 18°C/W enabling effective heat transfer to PCB copper pads. Moisture sensitivity level 1 ensures robust reflow compatibility without baking.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 100 V - Maximum repetitive reverse voltage before breakdown; sets upper limit for snubber or clamp circuit design |
| IF | 1 A - Continuous average forward current rating at TA = 25°C on standard PCB pad |
| trr | 25 ns max - Reverse recovery time under IF = 0.5A, IR = 1.0A, Irr = 0.25A; critical for minimizing switching loss in SMPS |
| VF | 0.84 V max at 1A/25°C - Low conduction loss improves efficiency in high-duty-cycle rectification |
| IFSM | 45 A - Non-repetitive surge current handling for startup or fault transients (t = 8.3ms) |
| TJ max | +175°C - High junction temperature rating enables compact thermal design in space-constrained layouts |
| CJ | 19 pF - Junction capacitance at 1MHz/4V; impacts high-frequency noise and EMI filter design |
Pinout & Package
Package: SOD-123W - Surface-mount plastic case with matte tin-plated leads, UL 94V-0 rated molding compound, cathode indicated by band. Weight: 0.015g.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |

| Anode | Forward current entry point | Connected to lower-potential node (e.g., switch node in buck converter); polarity must match PCB silkscreen |
| Cathode | Forward current exit / reverse blocking terminal | Connected to higher-potential node (e.g., output rail); cathode band identifies orientation during automated placement |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-fast recovery | trr ≤ 25 ns enables use in >500 kHz DC/DC converters without excessive switching loss |
| Low VF at high temperature | VF = 0.70 V typ at 1A/125°C maintains efficiency under thermal stress |
| SOD-123W footprint | Standardized 2.7 × 1.6 mm outline supports pick-and-place compatibility and IPC-7351 compliance |
| Moisture sensitivity level 1 | No bake required before reflow; simplifies manufacturing and reduces process risk |
| Halogen-free & RoHS | Complies with IEC 61249-2-21 and EU RoHS Directive for environmentally regulated end equipment |
Applications
| Buck Converter Freewheeling Diode | Snubber Network Diode |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Used as the low-side freewheeling path in non-synchronous buck regulators delivering 3.3–12 V at up to 2 A. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Rectifies inductive flyback energy during high-side switch off-time; conducts for ~50–90% of switching period. Use Value: 0.84 V VF minimizes conduction loss; 25 ns trr prevents reverse recovery shoot-through in adjacent MOSFETs. | Use Scenario: Placed across power MOSFETs or IGBTs in flyback or forward converters to absorb turn-off voltage spikes. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Clamps transient overvoltage within 100 V rating while absorbing stored inductive energy. Use Value: 45 A IFSM withstands short-duration surge currents; low Qrr (27 nC) limits snubber dissipation. |
| High-Frequency DC/DC Isolation Diode | EMI-Sensitive Signal Path Clamp |
Use Scenario: Output rectifier in isolated 1–3 W flyback adapters operating at 250–500 kHz switching frequency. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Converts high-frequency AC from transformer secondary to regulated DC output. Use Value: 19 pF CJ reduces capacitive coupling into feedback loop; 175°C TJmax supports sealed enclosure thermal profiles. | Use Scenario: Reverse-polarity protection and transient clamping on low-voltage sensor inputs (e.g., 3.3 V analog front-end). IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Blocks reverse voltage and shunts ESD/transient events above 100 V to ground. Use Value: 2 µA max IR at 25°C ensures minimal leakage error; cathode-band marking guarantees correct orientation in signal-path layout. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar ultra-fast rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ON Semiconductor MUR110ES | VRRM = 100 V, trr = 35 ns, VF = 0.92 V @ 1A - slower recovery and higher VF | Higher switching loss in >300 kHz designs; suitable for cost-sensitive <200 kHz applications | Select when lower unit cost outweighs efficiency loss and thermal margin is ample |
| Vishay VS-1EWH01-M3/5AT | VRRM = 100 V, trr = 20 ns, VF = 0.87 V @ 1A - slightly faster but higher forward drop | Better high-frequency performance but requires thermal derating above 125°C ambient | Prefer for highest-frequency designs where 5 ns trr advantage justifies tighter VF trade-off |
Compared with MUR110ES and VS-1EWH01-M3/5AT, PU1BLW delivers the best balance of low VF (0.84 V), fast trr (25 ns), and wide TJ range (–55°C to +175°C), making it optimal for thermally constrained, medium-to-high-frequency DC/DC stages.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for PU1BLW?
The PU1BLW has a maximum junction temperature (TJ) rating of +175°C, verified per absolute maximum ratings table in the official Taiwan Semiconductor datasheet Version A2210. This allows reliable operation in thermally demanding environments such as enclosed power adapters or high-density DC/DC modules where ambient temperatures exceed 85°C. The PU1BLW maintains specified electrical parameters up to this limit when thermal design accounts for RθJA = 80°C/W.
Does PU1BLW have a defined pinout, and how is polarity identified?
Yes, PU1BLW has a two-terminal pinout: anode and cathode. Polarity is unambiguously indicated by a visible cathode band on the SOD-123W package body. The cathode terminal connects to the higher-potential node in circuit operation and must align with the corresponding PCB silkscreen mark. No internal pin numbering applies - only functional terminal identification matters for this discrete diode.
What is the reverse recovery time specification for PU1BLW, and under what test conditions?
The PU1BLW reverse recovery time (trr) is specified as ≤25 ns under test conditions of IF = 0.5 A, IR = 1.0 A, and Irr = 0.25 A, per the Electrical Specifications table in the Taiwan Semiconductor datasheet. A second condition yields trr = 34 ns at IF = 1.0 A, di/dt = 50 A/µs, and VR = 30 V. These values confirm its suitability for high-frequency switching applications.
Is PU1BLW compliant with RoHS and halogen-free standards?
Yes, PU1BLW is RoHS compliant and halogen-free per IEC 61249-2-21, as explicitly stated in the FEATURES section of the Taiwan Semiconductor datasheet. The device uses matte tin-plated leads and UL 94V-0 molding compound, satisfying environmental requirements for consumer, industrial, and computing end equipment without exemptions.
What is the marking code printed on the PU1BLW device body?
The marking code on the PU1BLW device body is "U1BLW", as confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table of the Taiwan Semiconductor datasheet. This 5-character laser marking appears adjacent to the cathode band and is used for traceability and visual verification during assembly and inspection. No date code or factory identifier is included in the primary marking.
