Product details
Overview
RGP10DEHE3/73 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), used as a freewheeling or output rectifier in offline AC-DC adapters and DC-DC converters.
For engineers reviewing the RGP10DEHE3/73 datasheet, RGP10DEHE3/73 pinout, RGP10DEHE3/73 application, or RGP10DEHE3/73 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 200 V VRRM rating, 1.3 V forward voltage at 1.0 A, 5.0 µA reverse leakage at 25 °C, 30 A surge capability, and DO-41 mechanical compatibility with legacy through-hole power supply designs.
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 fast recovery (150 ns) while maintaining low forward voltage (1.3 V) and low leakage (5.0 µA at 25 °C).
Designed for operation up to 175 °C junction temperature, it supports high ambient environments in compact power supplies. The DO-41 package provides standardized lead spacing (0.375" / 9.5 mm), matte tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002, and UL 94 V-0 epoxy molding.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 200 V - maximum repetitive reverse blocking voltage; defines safe operating margin against input transients in 115/230 VAC-derived supplies |
| IF(AV) | 1.0 A - average forward current at 55 °C ambient with 0.375" lead length; sets continuous output capability in low-power SMPS |
| trr | 150 ns - reverse recovery time at IF = 0.5 A, IR = 1.0 A, Irr = 0.25 A; enables efficient operation at 50–100 kHz switching frequencies |
| VF | 1.3 V - forward voltage drop at 1.0 A; directly impacts conduction loss and thermal design in rectifier stage |
| IR | 5.0 µA - maximum DC reverse current at rated VDC and 25 °C; ensures minimal standby power loss in high-impedance bias networks |
| IFSM | 30 A - non-repetitive peak surge current (8.3 ms half-sine); withstands inrush and fault currents without failure |
| TJ max. | 175 °C - maximum junction temperature; allows operation in sealed enclosures or high-ambient industrial environments |

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 = 600 V, trr = 200 ns, VF = 1.2 V, IF(AV) = 1.0 A, same DO-41 package | Higher VRRM suits 230 VAC primary-side rectification; slower recovery increases switching loss above 50 kHz | Select when higher voltage margin is required and switching frequency ≤50 kHz |
| FR107 | VRRM = 1000 V, trr = 500 ns, VF = 1.3 V, IF(AV) = 1.0 A, DO-41 package | Ultra-high VRRM enables use in PFC boost outputs or 400 VDC bus clamping; 500 ns trr limits usable frequency to ≤20 kHz | Select only where extreme voltage rating outweighs switching speed penalty |
Compared with RGP10DEHE3/73, 1N4937G offers greater voltage headroom but reduced speed, while FR107 trades all speed for extreme blocking capability-making RGP10DEHE3/73 the optimal balance for 100–200 V, 50–100 kHz rectification where efficiency and layout continuity matter.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for RGP10DEHE3/73?
The RGP10DEHE3/73 has a maximum junction temperature (TJ max.) of +175 °C, enabling reliable operation in thermally demanding environments such as enclosed power supplies or industrial control modules. This rating is validated per JEDEC test conditions and supports derating curves published in the official Vishay datasheet (Document Number: 88700). Thermal design must account for RθJA = 55 °C/W under standard 0.375" lead-mount conditions.
Is RGP10DEHE3/73 RoHS-compliant and lead-free?
Yes, RGP10DEHE3/73 is RoHS-compliant and lead-free. The "E3" suffix explicitly denotes Vishay's commercial-grade, RoHS-compliant construction with matte tin-plated leads that meet J-STD-002 solderability requirements. It also passes JESD 201 Class 1A whisker testing, confirming long-term interconnect reliability in vibration-prone applications.
What does the "73" in RGP10DEHE3/73 indicate?
The "73" in RGP10DEHE3/73 is Vishay's packaging code specifying ammo pack packaging containing 3000 units. This differs from "54", which denotes 13" paper tape and reel (5500 units). Both share identical electrical and mechanical specifications; only the delivery format and quantity differ. The base part RGP10D remains unchanged across packaging variants.
How does RGP10DEHE3/73 compare to standard 1N4007 rectifiers?
RGP10DEHE3/73 is a fast-switching rectifier with 150 ns trr and 1.3 V VF, whereas the 1N4007 is a general-purpose rectifier with ~2 µs trr and higher VF (~1.7 V at 1 A). This makes RGP10DEHE3/73 suitable for higher-frequency (>20 kHz) applications like switch-mode power supplies, while the 1N4007 is limited to 50/60 Hz line-frequency rectification due to excessive recovery loss.
Is RGP10DEHE3/73 recommended for new designs?
No-RGP10DEHE3/73 is marked "Not for New Designs" per Vishay's official documentation (Revision: 26-Jan-2022). It remains available for legacy support and repair, but designers are advised to evaluate modern alternatives such as Vishay's ES1D or VSKL120 series for new projects requiring improved efficiency, smaller footprint, or extended lifetime.
