Product details
Overview
RGP10BE-E3/54 from Vishay General Semiconductor is a glass-passivated junction fast-switching plastic rectifier diode in DO-41 package, rated for 100 V repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM), 1.0 A average forward current (IF(AV)), and 150 ns reverse recovery time (trr); it serves as a freewheeling or output rectifier in AC/DC adapters and telecom power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the RGP10BE-E3/54 datasheet, RGP10BE-E3/54 pinout, RGP10BE-E3/54 application, or RGP10BE-E3/54 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 150 ns trr, 1.3 V forward voltage at 1.0 A, 5.0 μA leakage at 25 °C, DO-41 mechanical compatibility, and suitability for high-efficiency 50–100 kHz switching power stages.
Technical Context
This device implements a single silicon PN junction with cavity-free glass passivation to ensure stable reverse characteristics and high reliability under thermal cycling. Its Superectifier® structure enables low leakage (5.0 μA at 25 °C) and high surge capability (30 A IFSM).
The RGP10BE-E3/54 operates across –65 °C to +175 °C junction temperature range and exhibits typical junction capacitance of 15 pF at 4.0 V / 1 MHz. Thermal resistance is 55 °C/W (junction-to-ambient, PCB mounted, 0.375" lead length).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 100 V - supports input rectification up to 70 V RMS AC or 100 V DC blocking in offline SMPS outputs |
| IF(AV) | 1.0 A - delivers continuous DC output current in compact 5–15 W power supplies |
| trr | 150 ns - enables efficient operation at 50–100 kHz switching frequencies with minimal switching loss |
| VF | 1.3 V @ 1.0 A - contributes ~1.3 W conduction loss at full load, manageable with DO-41 thermal performance |
| IR | 5.0 μA @ 25 °C - ensures low standby power loss in always-on telecom circuits |
| TJ max. | +175 °C - allows operation in sealed enclosures or high-ambient industrial environments |

Applications
| AC/DC Adapter Output Rectification | Telecom DC-DC Converter Freewheeling |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Secondary-side rectification in 5–12 V, 1 A isolated flyback converters for wall adapters. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Unidirectional current valve converting transformer AC output to regulated DC. Use Value: 150 ns trr and 1.3 V VF enable >85% efficiency at 65 kHz while maintaining DO-41 board footprint. | Use Scenario: Freewheeling path in 48 V input, 5 V/1 A active-clamp forward converters for base station power modules. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Provides low-loss current recirculation during main switch off-time. Use Value: 30 A IFSM withstands transient overloads; 5.0 μA IR prevents battery drain in backup power rails. |

Use Scenario: Clamp diode across IGBT gates or across DC link capacitors in 200–400 V motor drives. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Suppresses voltage spikes during switching transitions via fast reverse recovery. Use Value: 100 V VRRM and 150 ns trr provide robust clamping margin without oscillation in 300 V bus systems. | Use Scenario: Input rectification for 24 V AC-powered industrial temperature sensors with 10-year field life requirement. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Converts AC excitation to stable DC bias for analog front-end circuitry. Use Value: Glass-passivated junction ensures <100 ppm/year parameter drift; DO-41 form factor fits legacy sensor PCB layouts. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar fast-switching rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4937G | VRRM = 100 V, trr = 200 ns, VF = 1.3 V, same DO-41 package | Slightly slower recovery limits use above 50 kHz; identical thermal profile | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs 50 ns trr advantage and layout reuse is critical |
| US1B-E3/54 | VRRM = 100 V, trr = 75 ns, VF = 1.7 V, same DO-41 package | Faster recovery but higher conduction loss; higher TJ max. (+150 °C vs. +175 °C) | Prefer where switching frequency exceeds 150 kHz and thermal headroom is sufficient |
Compared with RGP10BE-E3/54, 1N4937G trades 50 ns speed for broader legacy availability, while US1B-E3/54 improves dynamic performance at the cost of 0.4 V higher VF-making RGP10BE-E3/54 optimal for thermally constrained 50–100 kHz designs requiring long-term reliability.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for RGP10BE-E3/54?
The RGP10BE-E3/54 has a maximum junction temperature (TJ max.) of +175 °C, enabling reliable operation in sealed enclosures or high-ambient industrial environments. This rating is validated per JEDEC test conditions and supported by its 55 °C/W thermal resistance (RθJA) under standard PCB mounting. The RGP10BE-E3/54 maintains specified electrical parameters up to this limit, making it suitable for applications where thermal derating margins must exceed +150 °C ambient.
Is RGP10BE-E3/54 RoHS-compliant and lead-free?
Yes, the RGP10BE-E3/54 is RoHS-compliant and lead-free, as confirmed by the "E3" suffix in its part number. This designation indicates compliance with EU RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and meets JESD 201 Class 1A whisker testing requirements. The matte tin-plated leads are solderable per J-STD-002 and JESD 22-B102, and the molding compound satisfies UL 94 V-0 flammability standards. The RGP10BE-E3/54 is fully compatible with lead-free reflow and wave soldering processes.
What does the "/54" suffix mean in RGP10BE-E3/54?
The "/54" suffix in RGP10BE-E3/54 denotes the preferred packaging code: 13-inch diameter paper tape and reel, with a base quantity of 5500 units per reel. This format is optimized for automated SMT placement equipment and supports high-volume manufacturing. The RGP10BE-E3/54 is also available in ammo pack packaging (suffix /73, 3000 units), but /54 is the standard logistics configuration for production orders. No electrical or mechanical differences exist between /54 and /73 variants.
How does RGP10BE-E3/54 differ from RGP10AE-E3/54?
The RGP10BE-E3/54 differs from RGP10AE-E3/54 solely in its maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM): RGP10BE-E3/54 is rated for 100 V, whereas RGP10AE-E3/54 is rated for 50 V. All other parameters-including IF(AV) = 1.0 A, trr = 150 ns, VF = 1.3 V, IR = 5.0 μA, and DO-41 package-are identical. The RGP10BE-E3/54 is selected when system-level transient protection or input voltage margin requires ≥100 V blocking capability, such as in universal-input 85–264 VAC adapters.
Why is RGP10BE-E3/54 marked "Not for New Designs"?
RGP10BE-E3/54 is marked "Not for New Designs" because Vishay has introduced newer-generation fast rectifiers (e.g., VS-1N4937, VSKY series) with improved trr/VF trade-offs and enhanced reliability metrics. However, the RGP10BE-E3/54 remains fully manufactured, stocked, and supported for existing designs and legacy product maintenance. Aetrix Electronics guarantees continued supply and lifecycle coordination for RGP10BE-E3/54 in production programs where redesign is not feasible or cost-justified.
