Product details
Overview
RGP10GE-E3/93 from Vishay General Semiconductor is a glass-passivated junction fast-switching plastic rectifier diode in DO-41 package, rated for 400 V repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM), 1.0 A average forward current (IF(AV)), and 150 ns reverse recovery time (trr), used as freewheeling or output rectifier in AC/DC adapters and telecom power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the RGP10GE-E3/93 datasheet, RGP10GE-E3/93 pinout, RGP10GE-E3/93 application, or RGP10GE-E3/93 equivalent, key selection criteria include VRRM = 400 V, trr = 150 ns, VF = 1.3 V at 1.0 A, IR = 5.0 μA at 25 °C, 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 leakage performance and high surge robustness. Its Superectifier® structure enables fast switching (trr = 150 ns) while maintaining low forward voltage (VF = 1.3 V) and high thermal capability (TJ max = 175 °C).
Designed for unidirectional conduction in line-frequency and high-frequency rectification, it supports 30 A non-repetitive forward surge (IFSM) and exhibits low junction capacitance (CJ = 15 pF at 4.0 V, 1 MHz), making it suitable for flyback and forward converter secondary-side rectification where efficiency and EMI control matter.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 400 V - maximum repetitive reverse blocking voltage; defines safe operating margin against input transients in 230 VAC-derived supplies |
| IF(AV) | 1.0 A - average forward current at 55 °C ambient with 0.375" lead length; sets continuous power handling in compact PCB layouts |
| trr | 150 ns - reverse recovery time at IF = 0.5 A, IR = 1.0 A; enables efficient operation up to ~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 - DC reverse leakage at rated VDC and 25 °C; critical for low-power standby and high-impedance bias networks |
| TJ max | 175 °C - maximum junction temperature; allows reliable operation in sealed enclosures or high-ambient industrial environments |
| CJ | 15 pF - junction capacitance at 4.0 V, 1 MHz; influences high-frequency noise generation and snubber sizing |
Pinout & Package
Package: DO-41 (DO-204AL), axial-leaded, epoxy-molded body with matte tin-plated leads; cathode indicated by color band; RoHS-compliant (E3 suffix), JESD 201 Class 1A whisker-tested.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (unbanded end) | Forward current entry point | Connected to transformer secondary or switch node; must handle 30 A surge without bond wire failure |
| Cathode (banded end) | Forward current exit / reverse blocking terminal | Connected to output capacitor or load return; polarity marking prevents reverse-bias damage during assembly |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Superectifier® structure | Enhanced junction reliability under thermal cycling and high dv/dt stress, validated per JEDEC JESD22-A108 |
| Glass-passivated junction | Cavity-free construction eliminates moisture ingress paths, enabling >1000 hrs HAST reliability at 150 °C |
| Fast switching (trr = 150 ns) | Reduces switching loss and EMI in 50–100 kHz SMPS topologies compared to standard recovery rectifiers |
| Low leakage (IR = 5.0 μA) | Minimizes standby power loss in energy-efficient adapters meeting Level VI or CoC Tier 2 requirements |
| Solder dip tolerance | Withstands 275 °C for 10 s per JESD22-B106, supporting wave solder and reflow processes without delamination |
Applications
| AC/DC Adapter Output Rectification | Telecom DC-DC Converter Freewheeling |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Secondary-side rectification in 12–24 V, 10–30 W offline flyback converters powering VoIP phones or small base stations. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Unidirectional current valve converting transformer AC output to regulated DC; operates at line-synchronized or PWM-controlled intervals. Use Value: 150 ns trr minimizes reverse recovery loss, improving efficiency by ~0.8% over 500 ns alternatives at 65 kHz switching. | Use Scenario: Freewheeling path in isolated 48 V input, 5 V/3 A forward converters for telecom shelf management modules. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Provides low-loss current recirculation during MOSFET off-time; handles 30 A surge during transient load steps. Use Value: 1.3 V VF and 175 °C TJ rating allow full-load operation without heatsink in confined 48 V system slots. |
| Inverter Auxiliary Power Supply | Industrial PLC Input Rectification |
Use Scenario: Input rectification for 24 V auxiliary SMPS inside 3-phase motor inverters, powered from phase-to-phase AC. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Converts 400 VAC-derived rectified input to stable DC bus for gate drivers and logic; exposed to high dv/dt noise. Use Value: Glass-passivated junction ensures stable IR < 10 μA after 1000-cycle thermal shock, preventing false triggering. | Use Scenario: Bridge rectifier leg in 24 VAC input power supplies for programmable logic controllers with wide ambient range. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: One of four diodes in full-wave bridge; conducts 1.0 A average current with intermittent 30 A surges during solenoid activation. Use Value: DO-41 package fits legacy through-hole footprints; 175 °C rating supports operation in cabinets reaching 70 °C ambient. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar fast-switching rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH1R04 | VRRM = 400 V, trr = 35 ns (faster), VF = 1.35 V (slightly higher), DO-41 package | Better suited for >200 kHz ZVS/ZCS topologies; higher VF increases conduction loss at 1 A | Select when ultra-fast recovery is prioritized over minimal VF; verify layout thermal relief for same footprint |
| 1N4937G | VRRM = 600 V, trr = 500 ns (slower), VF = 1.2 V (lower), DO-41 package | Higher voltage margin but slower switching; better for 115 VAC-only or low-frequency linear supplies | Choose when VRRM derating >2× is required and switching frequency < 30 kHz; avoid in high-frequency SMPS |
Compared with STTH1R04 and 1N4937G, RGP10GE-E3/93 delivers balanced performance: 150 ns trr supports typical 65–100 kHz flybacks without excessive loss, while 1.3 V VF and 400 V VRRM match common adapter and telecom input ranges-making it optimal for cost-sensitive, thermally constrained legacy designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for RGP10GE-E3/93?
The RGP10GE-E3/93 has a maximum junction temperature (TJ max) of +175 °C, verified per JEDEC JESD22-A103. This rating allows sustained operation in high-ambient environments such as enclosed power supplies or industrial control cabinets, provided thermal design maintains junction temperature below this limit using appropriate PCB copper area or airflow.
Is RGP10GE-E3/93 RoHS-compliant and lead-free?
Yes, RGP10GE-E3/93 is RoHS-compliant and lead-free, indicated by the "E3" suffix per Vishay's ordering nomenclature. The matte tin-plated leads meet J-STD-002 and JESD 22-B102 solderability standards, and the part passes JESD 201 Class 1A whisker testing, ensuring reliability in automated assembly processes.
What does the "G" in RGP10GE-E3/93 signify?
The "G" in RGP10GE-E3/93 denotes the 400 V VRRM rating within the RGP10x family. Vishay uses alphabetical suffixes to indicate voltage grades: A = 50 V, B = 100 V, D = 200 V, G = 400 V, J = 600 V, K = 800 V, M = 1000 V. Thus, RGP10GE-E3/93 is the 400 V variant with E3 RoHS packaging and /93 reel packaging code.
Can RGP10GE-E3/93 replace a 1N4007 in a power supply design?
RGP10GE-E3/93 can replace a 1N4007 only if the circuit operates below 400 V reverse voltage and benefits from faster recovery. While both share DO-41 packaging and 1.0 A IF(AV), the 1N4007 has VRRM = 1000 V and trr > 2 μs. Substituting RGP10GE-E3/93 in a 1000 V application risks catastrophic failure; use only where VRRM = 400 V is sufficient and faster switching improves efficiency or EMI.
What is the reverse recovery time (trr) specification for RGP10GE-E3/93?
The RGP10GE-E3/93 has a maximum reverse recovery time (trr) of 150 ns, measured at IF = 0.5 A, IR = 1.0 A, and Irr = 0.25 A per the Vishay datasheet (Doc. #88700). This value is confirmed across production lots and is critical for minimizing switching loss in high-frequency rectification circuits such as those found in modern AC/DC adapters and telecom power modules.
