Product details
Overview
PU1BMH from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 1A, 100V ultra-fast surface-mount rectifier diode in Micro SMA package, featuring 25ns reverse recovery time, 0.90V forward voltage at 1A/25°C, and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive use in snubber and freewheeling circuits.
For engineers reviewing the PU1BMH datasheet, PU1BMH pinout, PU1BMH application, or PU1BMH equivalent, key selection criteria include repetitive peak reverse voltage (100V), surge current capability (28A @ 8.3ms), junction temperature range (–55°C to +175°C), thermal resistance (RθJL = 28°C/W), and Micro SMA mechanical compatibility with automated placement.
Technical Context
This device is a planar-structured silicon ultra-fast recovery rectifier optimized for high-frequency switching applications where low reverse recovery charge (Qrr = 40nC) and fast trr (24–25ns) minimize switching losses. Its cathode-band polarity marking and matte tin-plated leads comply with J-STD-002 solderability and JESD201 Class 2 whisker requirements.
The PU1BMH operates across –55°C to +175°C junction temperature, with thermal performance characterized on a 5mm × 5mm Cu pad PCB. It delivers stable reverse leakage (<1µA @ 25°C, <15µA @ 125°C) and exhibits 18pF junction capacitance at 1MHz/4V, supporting high-speed DC–DC converter node decoupling.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 100 V - Maximum repetitive reverse blocking voltage; defines safe operating limit in snubber or freewheeling paths. |
| IF | 1 A - Continuous forward current rating; determines steady-state power dissipation and heatsink sizing. |
| trr | 24–25 ns - Ultra-fast reverse recovery time; reduces switching loss and EMI in >100kHz DC–DC topologies. |
| Qrr | 40 nC - Low reverse recovery charge; minimizes voltage overshoot during diode turn-off in inductive loads. |
| RθJL | 28 °C/W - Junction-to-lead thermal resistance; enables direct thermal path to PCB copper for passive cooling. |
| VF @ 1A/25°C | 0.90 V - Forward voltage drop; sets conduction loss (0.9W @ 1A) and impacts efficiency in low-voltage output stages. |
| IR @ 125°C | <15 µA - Reverse leakage at elevated temperature; ensures reliability in under-hood automotive environments. |
Pinout & Package
Package: Micro SMA - Surface-mount plastic package with molded UL 94V-0 compound, matte tin-plated leads, and cathode band polarity indicator. Dimensions conform to standard Micro SMA outline with 0.006g mass.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward current entry point | Connected to lower-potential side of inductive load or switch node; requires adequate trace width for 1A continuous current. |
| Cathode | Forward current exit / reverse blocking terminal | Marked by visible band; ties to higher-potential rail or switch drain/source; critical for correct orientation in freewheeling path. |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar ultra-fast rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH1R06 | 1A/600V, trr = 35ns, VF = 1.15V @ 1A - higher VRRM, slower recovery, higher conduction loss | Designed for higher-voltage industrial SMPS; less optimal for 12–48V automotive snubbers due to excess voltage rating and loss | Select when 600V blocking is required; avoid if minimizing switching loss or board space is critical. |
| MBR1100 | 1A/100V Schottky, VF = 0.82V @ 1A, no reverse recovery - zero Qrr, but IR = 500µA @ 125°C | Used where ultra-low VF dominates; unsuitable for high-temp reverse-biased nodes due to leakage-driven power loss | Prefer for low-loss 25°C operation; reject for under-hood freewheeling where IR >10µA causes thermal runaway risk. |
Compared with STTH1R06 and MBR1100, the PU1BMH uniquely balances 100V rating, 25ns trr, sub-1V VF, and <15µA IR at 125°C - making it optimal for thermally constrained, high-frequency automotive power stages where leakage, speed, and voltage rating must co-optimize.

FAQ
What is the maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage rating for PU1BMH?
The PU1BMH has a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM) of 100 V, verified per absolute maximum ratings table in the official Taiwan Semiconductor datasheet revision C2103. This rating defines the highest reverse voltage the diode can block repeatedly without breakdown under normal operating conditions and must not be exceeded in circuit design.
Is PU1BMH suitable for automotive applications requiring AEC-Q101 qualification?
Yes, PU1BMH is explicitly AEC-Q101 qualified per its official product documentation. This certification covers stress tests including high-temperature reverse bias, temperature cycling, and unbiased highly accelerated stress testing - confirming suitability for under-hood automotive systems such as LED drivers and ECU power stages where PU1BMH is deployed.
What is the forward voltage drop of PU1BMH at 1A and 25°C?
The forward voltage (VF) of PU1BMH is specified as 0.90 V maximum at 1A forward current and 25°C junction temperature, with a typical value of 0.84 V under the same conditions. This parameter is measured using a 0.3ms pulse width and directly impacts conduction loss and thermal design in PU1BMH-based power stages.
Does PU1BMH have a defined reverse recovery time, and what is its value?
Yes, PU1BMH specifies a reverse recovery time (trr) of 24 ns (typical) and 25 ns (maximum), measured under IF = 0.5A, IR = 1.0A, and Irr = 0.25A conditions. This ultra-fast recovery characteristic is critical for minimizing switching loss and EMI in high-frequency DC–DC converters where PU1BMH serves as the output rectifier.
What package type does PU1BMH use, and is it compatible with automated SMT assembly?
PU1BMH uses the Micro SMA surface-mount package with matte tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002 solderability standards. Its moisture sensitivity level is rated at Level 1 per J-STD-020, meaning it requires no baking prior to reflow - fully supporting high-volume automated placement and reflow processes used in PU1BMH manufacturing.
