Product details
Overview
RS1MLH from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 1000V, 0.8A fast recovery surface-mount rectifier in Sub SMA package, featuring 500 ns reverse recovery time, 1.3 V max forward voltage at 0.8 A, and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive-grade reliability-used in snubber networks and freewheeling paths in high-voltage DC-DC converters.
For engineers reviewing the RS1MLH datasheet, RS1MLH pinout, RS1MLH application, or RS1MLH equivalent, key selection criteria include peak reverse voltage (1000 V), surge current capability (30 A), junction-to-lead thermal resistance (32 °C/W), moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1), and compliance with AEC-Q101 for under-hood automotive use.
Technical Context
The RS1MLH employs a single-die, glass-passivated silicon junction optimized for fast switching in high-voltage, low-current rectification. Its 500 ns trr and 10 pF junction capacitance support efficient operation in 50–500 kHz switching topologies where reverse recovery loss must be minimized.
Designed for surface-mount assembly with matte tin-plated leads (J-STD-002 compliant) and UL 94V-0 molding compound, the RS1MLH operates across –55°C to +150°C junction temperature range and meets JESD201 Class 2 whisker resistance requirements.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar fast recovery rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH1R06 | 600 V VRRM, 1 A IF, 150 ns trr, SMA package | Limited to ≤600 V systems; faster recovery but lower voltage margin | Prefer when higher current (1 A) and tighter trr (<200 ns) outweigh voltage requirement |
| SB1100 | 1000 V VRRM, 1 A IF, 500 ns trr, SMA package | Higher IF rating but larger SMA footprint and no AEC-Q101 qualification | Select when board space allows SMA and automotive qualification is not required |
Compared with STTH1R06 and SB1100, the RS1MLH uniquely combines 1000 V rating, AEC-Q101 compliance, and Sub SMA compactness-making it optimal for space- and reliability-critical automotive DC-DC stages where voltage margin and qualification are non-negotiable.

FAQ
What is the maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM) of the RS1MLH?
The RS1MLH has a VRRM of 1000 V, verified per Taiwan Semiconductor's A2103 datasheet revision. This rating allows the RS1MLH to safely block reverse voltages up to 1000 V in continuous operation, making it suitable for high-voltage DC-DC converters and automotive load-dump protection circuits where transient spikes exceed 800 V. The RS1MLH maintains this rating across its full operating temperature range.
Is the RS1MLH qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, the RS1MLH is AEC-Q101 qualified, as explicitly stated in the Taiwan Semiconductor datasheet. This qualification confirms that the RS1MLH has passed stress tests including high-temperature operating life (HTOL), temperature cycling (TC), and highly accelerated stress test (HAST)-ensuring reliability in automotive under-hood environments. The RS1MLH is commonly deployed in automotive lighting and engine control units.
What is the reverse recovery time (trr) of the RS1MLH and how is it measured?
The RS1MLH has a reverse recovery time (trr) of 500 ns, measured under conditions of IF = 0.5 A, IR = 1.0 A, and Irr = 0.25 A, per the official datasheet. This parameter reflects the time required for the device to transition from conduction to blocking state, directly impacting switching losses in high-frequency converters. The RS1MLH's 500 ns trr is consistent across its rated temperature range and contributes to reduced EMI in snubber and freewheeling applications.
Does the RS1MLH have a halogen-free and RoHS-compliant construction?
Yes, the RS1MLH is both halogen-free per IEC 61249-2-21 and RoHS compliant, as confirmed in the Taiwan Semiconductor product documentation. Its molding compound contains no brominated flame retardants or chlorine-based additives, and lead content is below RoHS thresholds. These attributes make the RS1MLH suitable for environmentally regulated industrial and automotive production programs requiring full material declarations.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to lead (RθJL) for the RS1MLH?
The RS1MLH has a typical junction-to-lead thermal resistance (RθJL) of 32 °C/W, enabling efficient heat transfer from the die to the PCB copper via the cathode and anode leads. This value is measured under standardized JEDEC conditions and supports thermal design in compact layouts where forced airflow is absent. For reliable operation, the RS1MLH's RθJL allows direct copper pour attachment without additional heatsinking in most automotive and industrial applications.
