Product details
Overview
RS1MLSH from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 1000V, 1.2A fast recovery surface-mount rectifier in SOD-123HE package, designed for high-efficiency DC-DC conversion and automotive snubber circuits with 300 ns reverse recovery time and 50 A surge capability.
For engineers reviewing the RS1MLSH datasheet, RS1MLSH pinout, RS1MLSH application, or RS1MLSH equivalent, key selection factors include its 1000 V repetitive peak reverse voltage, 1.3 V max forward voltage at 1.2 A, AEC-Q101 qualification, SOD-123HE thermal performance (RθJA = 80 °C/W), and cathode-band polarity marking.
Technical Context
The RS1MLSH is a single-die, silicon planar fast recovery rectifier optimized for high-voltage switching applications where low conduction loss and controlled reverse recovery are critical. Its 1000 V VRRM, 300 ns trr, and 50 A IFSM support robust operation in automotive lighting and DC-DC converters under transient stress.
Thermally, it delivers RθJL = 20 °C/W to lead and operates up to +175 °C junction temperature. The SOD-123HE package features matte tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002 and JESD 201 Class 2 whisker resistance.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 1000 V - supports primary-side rectification in 800 V bus systems without derating |
| IF | 1.2 A continuous - suitable for low-to-medium power DC-DC stages (e.g., 12–48 V outputs) |
| IFSM | 50 A (8.3 ms) - withstands inrush and fault currents in automotive load dumps |
| trr | 300 ns - minimizes switching losses and EMI in 100–500 kHz SMPS designs |
| VF max | 1.3 V @ 1.2 A - reduces conduction loss vs. standard recovery diodes (typ. >1.7 V) |
| TJ max | +175 °C - enables operation in under-hood automotive environments |
| RθJA | 80 °C/W - defines thermal limit for PCB copper area design in SMT layouts |
Pinout & Package
SOD-123HE surface-mount package with cathode-indicated band; compact footprint (2.60 × 1.40 mm), 0.022 g weight, UL 94V-0 molding compound, and matte tin-plated leads solderable per J-STD-002.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |

Applications
| Automotive LED Headlamp Driver | Industrial DC-DC Converter Output Rectifier |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: High-brightness LED arrays powered from buck-boost converters in headlamp modules. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Output rectifier handling 1.2 A continuous current with fast turn-off to suppress voltage spikes during PWM dimming. Use Value: 1000 V VRRM provides margin against transients; 300 ns trr prevents cross-conduction loss in synchronous rectifier-assisted topologies. | Use Scenario: Secondary-side rectification in isolated 24 V input, 5 V/3 A industrial SMPS. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Fast recovery diode in flyback or forward converter output stage. Use Value: 1.3 V VF max ensures <1.6 W conduction loss at full load; SOD-123HE footprint allows dense board layout. |
| Automotive Snubber Network | On-Board Charger (OBC) Auxiliary Supply |
Use Scenario: RC snubber across MOSFETs/IGBTs in 400 V traction inverter gate drivers. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Clamp diode absorbing turn-off energy with minimal reverse recovery tail. Use Value: 300 ns trr limits snubber dissipation; 1000 V rating covers worst-case VDS overshoot in 650 V devices. | Use Scenario: Auxiliary 12 V supply derived from main OBC DC link for control circuitry. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Input rectifier stepping down 400–800 V DC link to intermediate bus. Use Value: AEC-Q101 qualification ensures lifetime reliability; +175 °C TJ max supports operation near heat-generating power modules. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar fast recovery rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH1L06S | 600 V VRRM, 1.05 A IF, 75 ns trr, SOD-123 package | Limited to ≤600 V systems; faster recovery but lower voltage rating | Select when ultra-fast recovery (<100 ns) is prioritized over voltage margin |
| RB055LAM-40 | 40 V VRRM, 5 A IF, 30 ns trr, SOD-123FL package | Low-voltage, high-current use only; not suitable for 1000 V applications | Use only in ≤40 V auxiliary rails where surge immunity is secondary |
Compared with STTH1L06S and RB055LAM-40, the RS1MLSH uniquely balances 1000 V blocking, 1.2 A current, and 300 ns recovery for automotive and industrial HV DC-DC-neither alternative meets all three requirements simultaneously.

FAQ
What is the maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of the RS1MLSH?
The RS1MLSH has a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM) of 1000 V, verified per Taiwan Semiconductor's B2304 datasheet revision. This rating allows safe operation in 800 V nominal bus systems with sufficient margin for transients. The RS1MLSH is the highest-voltage variant in the RS1xLSH series, distinct from RS1JLSH (600 V) and RS1KLSH (800 V).
Is the RS1MLSH qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, the RS1MLSH is AEC-Q101 qualified, confirming its suitability for automotive applications including engine control units, body electronics, and lighting systems. This qualification covers stress tests such as temperature cycling, high-temperature reverse bias, and unbiased highly accelerated stress testing-specifically validated for the RS1MLSH device marking code RMLS.
What package type does the RS1MLSH use, and what are its key mechanical attributes?
The RS1MLSH uses the SOD-123HE surface-mount package, measuring 2.60 mm × 1.40 mm with 0.022 g mass. Key attributes include UL 94V-0 flammability-rated molding compound, matte tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002, and cathode polarity indicated by a visible band. Its RθJL is 20 °C/W, enabling efficient heat transfer to the PCB pad.
What is the forward voltage drop of the RS1MLSH at rated current?
The RS1MLSH exhibits a maximum forward voltage (VF) of 1.3 V at 1.2 A and 25 °C junction temperature, per the electrical specifications table in the official datasheet. This value is measured under pulse conditions (PW = 0.3 ms) and represents worst-case conduction loss-critical for calculating thermal rise in continuous-duty applications like automotive DC-DC converters.
Does the RS1MLSH have a specified reverse recovery time, and how is it measured?
Yes, the RS1MLSH has a maximum reverse recovery time (trr) of 300 ns, measured under conditions of IF = 0.5 A, IR = 1.0 A, and IRR = 0.25 A, per the test circuit shown in Figure 6 of the datasheet. This parameter directly impacts switching loss and EMI in high-frequency power supplies, making it essential for evaluating performance in 100–500 kHz SMPS designs.
