Product details
Overview
RS1MLS from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 1000V, 1.2A fast recovery surface-mount rectifier in SOD-123HE package, featuring 300 ns reverse recovery time, 50 A surge capability, and 175°C maximum junction temperature. It serves as a primary output rectifier in high-voltage DC-DC converters for industrial power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the RS1MLS datasheet, RS1MLS pinout, RS1MLS application, or RS1MLS equivalent, key selection criteria include VRRM = 1000 V, IF = 1.2 A, trr = 300 ns, RθJA = 80 °C/W, and SOD-123HE mechanical compatibility with automated placement.
Technical Context
The RS1MLS operates as a single-die, unidirectional silicon rectifier optimized for switching-mode power conversion where high peak reverse voltage and fast recovery are required to minimize switching losses. Its 1000 V VRRM rating enables use in 800 V DC bus systems, while the 300 ns trr supports operation up to ~500 kHz in hard-switched topologies.
Thermally, the device uses a matte tin-plated SOD-123HE leadframe with RθJL = 20 °C/W, enabling efficient heat transfer to PCB copper. The 175°C TJMAX and J-STD-020 Level 1 moisture sensitivity support reflow-compatible manufacturing without baking.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 1000 V - Withstands 1000 V repetitive reverse voltage, suitable for 800 V DC-link applications with safety margin. |
| IF | 1.2 A continuous - Rated average forward current at TA = 75°C on FR-4 PCB with 10 mm² copper pad. |
| trr | 300 ns - Measured at IF = 0.5 A, IR = 1.0 A, Irr = 0.25 A; enables reduced switching loss in SMPS. |
| VF | ≤1.3 V @ 1.2 A - Forward voltage drop directly impacts conduction loss and thermal design in high-current paths. |
| RθJA | 80 °C/W - Junction-to-ambient thermal resistance defines maximum power dissipation (PD ≈ 1.25 W at TA = 75°C). |
| IFSM | 50 A - Non-repetitive surge rating allows handling of inrush or fault currents without failure. |
| TJMAX | 175 °C - Maximum junction temperature permits operation in high-ambient industrial environments. |
Pinout & Package

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-voltage fast recovery rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vishay VS-1N5819HM3/85A | VRRM = 40 V, IF = 1 A, trr = 40 ns - Lower voltage, faster but not rated for >100 V. | Not suitable for 1000 V systems; limited to low-voltage DC-DC or signal clamping. | Select only if VRRM < 60 V is sufficient and ultra-fast recovery is prioritized over voltage rating. |
| ON Semiconductor MUR120RLG | VRRM = 200 V, IF = 1 A, trr = 75 ns - Higher speed but insufficient voltage margin for 800+ V buses. | Applicable in 100–200 V SMPS; cannot replace RS1MLS in high-voltage industrial converters. | Use where 200 V rating suffices and faster trr improves efficiency; not a drop-in substitute for RS1MLS. |
Compared with VS-1N5819HM3/85A and MUR120RLG, RS1MLS uniquely delivers 1000 V blocking capability with 1.2 A current and 300 ns recovery-enabling direct use in 800 V DC-link rectification where alternatives fail on voltage rating.

FAQ
What is the maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM) for RS1MLS?
The RS1MLS has a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 1000 V, as confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table of the E2304 datasheet. This rating applies under standard test conditions (TA = 25°C) and defines the highest reverse voltage the device can block repeatedly without breakdown. Engineers must ensure system transients remain within this limit plus appropriate derating margin when using RS1MLS in actual designs.
Does RS1MLS have a specified reverse recovery time (trr)?
Yes, RS1MLS has a specified reverse recovery time of 300 ns, measured under conditions of IF = 0.5 A, IR = 1.0 A, and Irr = 0.25 A. This value is published in the Electrical Specifications section of the E2304 datasheet and reflects the device's performance in high-frequency switching applications. The trr directly influences switching loss and EMI behavior in SMPS circuits using RS1MLS.
What package type does RS1MLS use, and is it compatible with automated assembly?
RS1MLS uses the SOD-123HE surface-mount package, which features matte tin-plated leads and complies with J-STD-002 solderability standards. The package is explicitly noted as "ideal for automated placement" in the datasheet features list. Its dimensions, polarity marking (cathode band), and moisture sensitivity level (J-STD-020 Level 1) confirm full compatibility with standard SMT reflow processes without pre-baking.
What is the forward voltage (VF) of RS1MLS at rated current?
The forward voltage of RS1MLS is ≤1.3 V at IF = 1.2 A and TJ = 25°C, per the Electrical Specifications table in the E2304 datasheet. This maximum value represents worst-case conduction loss under nominal operating conditions. Actual VF will decrease at lower temperatures and increase slightly at higher junction temperatures, impacting thermal design and efficiency calculations for RS1MLS in power supply applications.
Is RS1MLS RoHS-compliant and halogen-free?
Yes, RS1MLS is both RoHS-compliant and halogen-free, as stated in the FEATURES section of the E2304 datasheet. These attributes meet global environmental regulations including EU RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and IEC 61249-2-21 for halogen content. This makes RS1MLS suitable for export-oriented industrial and consumer electronics where material compliance is mandatory for market access.
