Product details
Overview
RGP10DHM3/73 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 AC/DC adapters, DC/DC converters, and telecom power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the RGP10DHM3/73 datasheet, RGP10DHM3/73 pinout, RGP10DHM3/73 application, or RGP10DHM3/73 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 150 ns trr for high-frequency switching efficiency, 1.3 V forward voltage at 1.0 A, 5.0 μA leakage at 25 °C, 30 A surge capability, and DO-41 mechanical compatibility with legacy through-hole power designs.
Technical Context
This device implements a single silicon PN junction with cavity-free glass passivation to ensure stable performance under thermal cycling and humidity stress. Its Superectifier® structure enables low leakage (5.0 μA @ 25 °C) and high reliability in continuous conduction mode operation.
The RGP10DHM3/73 operates across –65 °C to +175 °C junction temperature range and delivers 150 ns reverse recovery time under IF = 0.5 A / IR = 1.0 A / Irr = 0.25 A test conditions - optimized for 20–100 kHz switching power topologies where fast recovery reduces switching losses.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 200 V - supports input rectification up to 141 V RMS AC or 200 V DC blocking in offline SMPS front-end stages |
| IF(AV) | 1.0 A at 55 °C ambient with 0.375" lead length - suitable for medium-power secondary-side outputs |
| trr | 150 ns - enables efficient operation in 50–100 kHz flyback and forward converters without excessive snubbing |
| VF | 1.3 V @ 1.0 A - contributes ~1.3 W conduction loss at full load, requiring modest heatsinking in enclosed designs |
| IR | 5.0 μA @ 25 °C - ensures minimal standby power loss in always-on auxiliary supplies |
| IFSM | 30 A @ 8.3 ms half-sine - withstands inrush currents during cold-start of capacitive-input rectifiers |
| TJ max. | 175 °C - allows operation in high-ambient industrial or telecom environments with derating |

Applications
| AC/DC Adapter Output Rectification | DC/DC Converter Freewheeling Diode |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Secondary-side rectification in 5–24 V, 0.5–1.5 A wall adapters for consumer electronics. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Unidirectional current path converting transformer AC output to regulated DC; handles continuous conduction mode (CCM) loads. Use Value: 150 ns trr minimizes voltage overshoot and EMI generation during turn-off, reducing need for RC snubbers. | Use Scenario: Freewheeling path in buck or forward converter output stage driving solenoids or LED strings. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Provides low-loss current recirculation path during high-side switch off-time. Use Value: 1.3 V VF and 30 A IFSM support transient load steps without thermal runaway or voltage droop. |
| Telecom Power Supply Input Stage | Inverter Auxiliary Bias Supply |
Use Scenario: Input bridge rectification in 48 V telecom rectifiers operating in hot-swappable chassis. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Handles line-frequency rectification with high reliability under sustained 60 °C ambient and cyclic loading. Use Value: 175 °C TJ max. and 5.0 μA IR enable stable operation over full life cycle without parameter drift. | Use Scenario: Isolated auxiliary supply powering gate drivers and control ICs in three-phase motor inverters. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Rectifies small-power isolated winding output to generate +15 V bias rail. Use Value: DO-41 footprint allows direct integration into compact transformer-based bias modules with no layout redesign. |
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 @ 1.0 A | Higher voltage rating suits universal-input PFC front-ends; slower recovery increases switching loss above 50 kHz | Select when >400 V blocking is required and switching frequency ≤50 kHz |
| FR107 | VRRM = 1000 V, trr = 500 ns, VF = 1.3 V @ 1.0 A | Designed for general-purpose rectification; significantly slower recovery limits use to ≤20 kHz topologies | Choose only for low-frequency, high-voltage legacy designs where cost is primary constraint |
Compared with RGP10DHM3/73, the 1N4937G offers higher voltage margin but reduced high-frequency efficiency, while the FR107 trades speed for extreme voltage capability - making RGP10DHM3/73 optimal for 20–100 kHz, 200 V-class power conversion where balance of speed, loss, and reliability is critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for RGP10DHM3/73?
The RGP10DHM3/73 has a maximum junction temperature (TJ max.) of +175 °C, enabling reliable operation in high-ambient environments such as enclosed telecom power modules or industrial control cabinets. This rating is validated per JEDEC standards and supports full derating curves down to –65 °C storage temperature. Thermal design must account for RθJA = 55 °C/W under standard PCB mounting conditions.
Is RGP10DHM3/73 RoHS-compliant and lead-free?
Yes, RGP10DHM3/73 carries the "E3" suffix, indicating RoHS-compliance and lead-free matte tin plating per JESD 201 Class 1A whisker testing. The DO-41 package uses UL 94 V-0 compliant epoxy molding compound, and all materials meet Vishay's standard for hazardous substance restrictions as defined in document 99912.
What does the "/73" suffix mean in RGP10DHM3/73?
The "/73" suffix in RGP10DHM3/73 denotes ammo pack packaging: 3000 units per box, intended for manual or semi-automated assembly. It follows Vishay's ordering convention where "/54" indicates 13" tape-and-reel (5500 units), and "/73" specifies bulk-style ammo packaging - both share identical electrical and mechanical specifications with the base RGP10D part.
Why is RGP10DHM3/73 marked "Not for New Designs"?
Vishay designated the RGP10 series as "Not for New Designs" effective January 2022 due to strategic portfolio rationalization and migration toward newer platforms like the VS-1N493xG family. However, RGP10DHM3/73 remains fully supported for existing production, with guaranteed supply continuity and unchanged specifications - no obsolescence risk for legacy program lifecycles.
How does the 150 ns reverse recovery time of RGP10DHM3/73 compare to standard rectifiers?
The RGP10DHM3/73 achieves 150 ns trr - approximately 3× faster than general-purpose rectifiers like 1N4007 (≈2–3 μs) and 2× faster than standard fast recovery types like FR107 (500 ns). This enables cleaner switching waveforms, lower EMI, and higher efficiency in 50–100 kHz power converters without requiring additional snubber networks.
