Product details
Overview
RGP10D-E3/73 from Vishay General Semiconductor is a glass-passivated junction fast-switching plastic rectifier diode in DO-41 package, rated for 200 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 offline AC/DC adapters and DC-DC converters.
For engineers reviewing the RGP10D-E3/73 datasheet, RGP10D-E3/73 pinout, RGP10D-E3/73 application, or RGP10D-E3/73 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 200 V VRRM rating, 150 ns trr for high-frequency switching efficiency, 1.3 V VF at 1.0 A, 5.0 μA IR at 25 °C, and DO-41 mechanical compatibility with legacy through-hole power supply designs.
Technical Context
This device implements a Superectifier® structure with cavity-free glass-passivated junction to ensure high reliability under thermal cycling and humidity stress. Its fast switching (150 ns trr) and low leakage (5.0 μA at 25 °C) support high-efficiency operation in flyback and forward converter topologies.
The RGP10D-E3/73 operates across –65 °C to +175 °C junction temperature range and sustains 30 A non-repetitive surge current (IFSM), making it suitable for transient-prone input rectification and inductive load commutation where robustness against line surges is required.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 200 V - maximum repetitive reverse blocking voltage; defines safe operating limit in AC line rectification. |
| IF(AV) | 1.0 A at 55 °C ambient with 0.375" lead length - continuous DC output capability in compact power supplies. |
| trr | 150 ns - enables efficient high-frequency switching up to ~500 kHz without excessive switching loss. |
| VF | 1.3 V at 1.0 A - contributes to conduction loss budget in 12 V or 24 V secondary-side rectification. |
| IR | 5.0 μA at 25 °C - ensures minimal standby power loss in no-load or light-load conditions. |
| TJ max. | +175 °C - supports operation in thermally constrained enclosures without derating below full current. |
Pinout & Package
Package: DO-41 (DO-204AL), axial-leaded, epoxy-molded body with UL 94 V-0 flammability rating; matte tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002 and JESD 22-B102; cathode indicated by color band.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |

Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Superectifier® structure | Eliminates junction cavities to prevent moisture ingress and metallization degradation during thermal cycling. |
| Fast reverse recovery (150 ns) | Reduces switching losses and EMI generation in 100–500 kHz SMPS designs compared to standard rectifiers. |
| High IFSM (30 A) | Withstands cold-start inrush and lightning-induced surges without failure in AC-input front-end stages. |
| Low IR (5.0 μA @ 25 °C) | Minimizes no-load power consumption in energy-efficient adapters meeting Level VI or CoC Tier 2 standards. |
Applications
| AC/DC Adapter Rectification | DC-DC Converter Freewheeling |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Secondary-side rectification in 5–24 V, 10–30 W offline flyback adapters for consumer electronics. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Output rectifier converting high-frequency transformer output to regulated DC. Use Value: 150 ns trr and 1.3 V VF enable >85 % efficiency at full load while maintaining low thermal rise in confined PCB layouts. | Use Scenario: Freewheeling path in synchronous or non-synchronous buck converters for industrial sensors and PLC I/O modules. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Inductive energy recirculation path during high-side switch off-time. Use Value: 30 A IFSM rating handles peak inductor current transients without snap-off or voltage overshoot. |
| Inverter Auxiliary Power Supply | Telecom Line Card Protection |
Use Scenario: Input rectification for isolated auxiliary bias supplies in motor drive inverters (e.g., gate driver ICs). IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Bridge or single-diode rectifier feeding linear or buck regulator for control logic rails. Use Value: –65 °C to +175 °C TJ range ensures reliable startup and operation across extended industrial temperature profiles. | Use Scenario: Reverse polarity and overvoltage protection in telecom line card DC inputs (–48 V systems). IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Series blocking diode preventing damage from accidental reverse connection or hot-swap transients. Use Value: 200 V VRRM provides 2× margin over nominal –48 V rail with allowance for ringing and surge events. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar fast rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4937G | VRRM = 600 V, trr = 200 ns, VF = 1.2 V at 1.0 A | Higher voltage rating but slower recovery; better for 400 V+ PFC stages, less optimal for 200 V secondary-side use. | Select when higher reverse margin is needed and 50 ns slower recovery is acceptable. |
| FR104 | VRRM = 400 V, trr = 500 ns, VF = 1.3 V, IR = 5.0 μA | Slower recovery increases switching loss above 100 kHz; suitable only for low-frequency (<60 kHz) or cost-sensitive legacy designs. | Choose only if board layout cannot accommodate faster alternatives and frequency is ≤60 kHz. |
Compared with RGP10D-E3/73, the 1N4937G offers greater reverse voltage headroom at the cost of reduced switching speed, while the FR104 trades speed for cost and voltage margin-making RGP10D-E3/73 the optimal balance of 200 V rating, 150 ns trr, and thermal robustness for mid-frequency SMPS outputs.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for RGP10D-E3/73?
The RGP10D-E3/73 has a maximum junction temperature (TJ max.) of +175 °C, verified per Vishay Document Number 88700. This allows uninterrupted operation in high-ambient environments such as enclosed power supplies or industrial control cabinets without mandatory derating below 1.0 A IF(AV) at 55 °C ambient. The RGP10D-E3/73 maintains stable electrical characteristics across its full –65 °C to +175 °C operating range.
Is RGP10D-E3/73 RoHS-compliant and lead-free?
Yes, the RGP10D-E3/73 carries the "E3" suffix, indicating full RoHS compliance per EU Directive 2011/65/EU and exemption 7a. Its matte tin-plated leads meet JESD 201 Class 1A whisker resistance requirements, and the molding compound complies with UL 94 V-0 flammability standards. The RGP10D-E3/73 is qualified for commercial-grade applications with no lead content in die attach, plating, or packaging materials.
What does the "/73" suffix mean in RGP10D-E3/73?
The "/73" suffix denotes the packaging configuration: 3000-piece ammo pack packaging, as specified in Vishay's ordering information table (Document 88700, page 2). It is distinct from "/54", which indicates 5500-piece 13" paper tape and reel. The RGP10D-E3/73 retains identical electrical and thermal specifications as other RGP10D-E3 variants-the suffix affects only logistics and handling, not device performance.
Can RGP10D-E3/73 replace RGP10B-E3/73 in an existing design?
No-RGP10D-E3/73 is not a drop-in replacement for RGP10B-E3/73 due to differing VRRM ratings: RGP10D-E3/73 is rated for 200 V, whereas RGP10B-E3/73 is rated for 100 V. Substituting without circuit review risks reverse breakdown under transient overvoltage. The RGP10D-E3/73 may be used only where the 200 V rating is required or verified compatible; always validate voltage stress margins before substitution.
What is the typical junction capacitance of RGP10D-E3/73?
The typical junction capacitance (CJ) of RGP10D-E3/73 is 15 pF, measured at 4.0 V reverse bias and 1 MHz frequency (Vishay Document 88700, page 2). This value influences high-frequency noise coupling and snubber design in fast-switching circuits. The RGP10D-E3/73's 15 pF CJ remains stable across temperature and bias, supporting predictable EMI filtering in 100–500 kHz power converters.
