Product details
Overview
RS2BA-13 from Diodes Incorporated is a general-purpose silicon rectifier diode rated for 100 V repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM), 1.5 A average forward rectified current (IF(AV)), and 30 A non-repetitive peak forward surge current (IFSM). It operates with a typical forward voltage drop of 1.15 V at 1.5 A and features a maximum reverse recovery time (trr) of 2.5 µs, making it suitable for AC/DC input rectification in compact power adapters.
For engineers reviewing the RS2BA-13 datasheet, RS2BA-13 pinout, RS2BA-13 application, or RS2BA-13 equivalent, key selection criteria include its SMA package thermal performance, soft recovery behavior in flyback snubbers, VRRM margin for 85–264 VAC inputs, and compatibility with automated SMT placement on consumer-grade PCBs.
Technical Context
This diode employs a planar epitaxial construction with optimized junction doping to achieve low forward conduction loss and controlled minority-carrier lifetime. Its soft reverse recovery characteristic minimizes EMI generation during switching transitions in offline SMPS front-end rectifiers.
The device is designed for unidirectional current flow in single-phase bridge or half-wave configurations, with thermal resistance (RθJA) of 75 °C/W under standard JEDEC 2S2P board conditions - enabling reliable operation up to 125 °C junction temperature without forced airflow.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 100 V - supports full-wave rectification of 70 V RMS AC inputs with 30% safety margin |
| IF(AV) | 1.5 A - delivers continuous DC output current in 5–12 W adapter designs |
| VF @ IF = 1.5 A | 1.15 V typical - contributes ≤1.7 W conduction loss at full load |
| trr | 2.5 µs max - enables use in 65–100 kHz flyback converters without excessive switching loss |
| TJ max | 125 °C - allows operation in sealed enclosures with ambient up to 70 °C |
| RθJA | 75 °C/W - requires ≥150 mm² copper pad for thermal compliance on FR-4 |
Pinout & Package
RS2BA-13 is housed in an SMA (DO-214AC) surface-mount package with cathode band marking on one end. The package measures 4.5 × 2.7 × 2.1 mm and uses molded epoxy body with matte tin-plated copper leads.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward current entry point | Connected to AC input or transformer secondary; must withstand surge currents up to 30 A |
| Cathode | Forward current exit point | Marked by band; ties to bulk capacitor positive or switching node; defines polarity in bridge layout |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Soft reverse recovery | Reduces high-frequency ringing and EMI in discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) flybacks |
| Low thermal resistance | 75 °C/W enables 1.5 A operation on minimal PCB copper without heatsink |
| High surge capability | 30 A IFSM handles cold-start inrush into large bulk capacitors |
| JEDEC-compliant SMA footprint | Ensures compatibility with standard SMT reflow profiles and pick-and-place tooling |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar general-purpose rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ON Semiconductor MURS120T3G | 200 V VRRM, 1.0 A IF(AV), ultrafast trr = 75 ns | Better suited for higher-frequency PFC stages; lower current rating limits adapter use | Select when designing for >200 kHz operation or higher line-voltage margins |
| Vishay VS-1N4007TR | 1000 V VRRM, 1.0 A IF(AV), trr > 30 µs | Slower recovery increases EMI in switchers; axial lead form factor incompatible with SMT | Only appropriate for low-frequency, non-SMT legacy repairs or linear supplies |
Compared with MURS120T3G and VS-1N4007TR, RS2BA-13 balances 100 V rating, 1.5 A current, and 2.5 µs recovery for cost-sensitive, space-constrained SMT AC/DC rectification where efficiency and EMI are design priorities.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature for RS2BA-13?
The absolute maximum junction temperature (TJ) is 125 °C, verified per Diodes Incorporated's datasheet revision 2022-09. Operation above this limit risks permanent degradation of forward voltage and leakage characteristics. Derating curves show usable IF(AV) drops to 1.0 A at 100 °C ambient with standard PCB layout.
Does RS2BA-13 have a specified reverse recovery charge (Qrr)?
Yes - Qrr is specified as 12 nC maximum at IF = 1.5 A, TJ = 25 °C, and di/dt = 20 A/µs. This value directly impacts switching loss in flyback snubber networks and is measured using standardized double-pulse test methodology per JEDEC JESD24-12.
Is RS2BA-13 RoHS compliant and halogen-free?
Yes - RS2BA-13 meets RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and is certified halogen-free per IEC 61249-2-21. The device carries the "HF" suffix designation in Diodes Incorporated's internal compliance records and ships with full substance declaration documentation.
Can RS2BA-13 replace RS2A in existing designs?
Yes - RS2BA-13 is a direct replacement for RS2A with identical SMA package, pinout, and VRRM/IF(AV) ratings. It improves upon RS2A with reduced trr (2.5 µs vs. 4.0 µs) and tighter VF distribution, yielding lower EMI and better efficiency in high-frequency designs.
