Product details
Overview
RS2GA-13-F from Diodes Incorporated is a surface-mount fast recovery rectifier diode in SMA package, rated for 400 V peak repetitive reverse voltage (VRRM), 1.5 A average rectified output current (IO), and 150 ns reverse recovery time (trr). It features glass passivated die construction, 50 A non-repetitive surge capability, and RoHS-compliant lead-free plating - deployed in AC/DC front-end rectification stages of industrial power supplies and LED drivers.
For engineers reviewing the RS2GA-13-F datasheet, RS2GA-13-F pinout, RS2GA-13-F application, or RS2GA-13-F equivalent, key selection criteria include VRRM rating, trr performance under 1.5 A forward conduction, thermal resistance (RθJT = 20 °C/W), and compatibility with automated SMT assembly on FR-4 PCBs with defined pad layouts.
Technical Context
This device operates as a unidirectional silicon PN junction rectifier optimized for high-frequency switching applications. Its fast recovery time (150 ns) enables reduced switching losses in 50–100 kHz SMPS topologies, while the glass passivation ensures stable leakage performance across -65°C to +150°C operating range.
The SMA package provides low thermal resistance (20 °C/W junction-to-terminal) when mounted on 5.0 mm² copper pads, supporting continuous 1.5 A conduction at terminal temperatures up to 120°C per derating curve. Polarity is marked by cathode band on the body.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 400 V - Withstands 400 V peak reverse voltage without breakdown; suitable for 277 VAC input rectification with safety margin. |
| IO | 1.5 A - Maximum average forward current at TT = 120°C; defines continuous power handling in thermally managed layouts. |
| trr | 150 ns - Measured at IF = 0.5 A, IR = 1.0 A, Irr = 0.25 A; enables efficient operation in medium-frequency SMPS. |
| VFM | 1.3 V @ 1.5 A - Forward voltage drop determines conduction loss (1.95 W max at full load); impacts thermal design and efficiency. |
| IFSM | 50 A - Non-repetitive surge rating for 8.3 ms half-sine; withstands inrush currents in capacitive-input supplies. |
| RθJT | 20 °C/W - Junction-to-terminal thermal resistance with specified 5.0 mm² copper pad; critical for thermal simulation and heatsinking. |
Pinout & Package
Package: SMA (DO-214AC), molded plastic body with matte tin-plated terminals, cathode indicated by band. Weight ≈ 0.065 g. UL 94V-0 rated.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |

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 | VRRM = 600 V, trr = 110 ns, IO = 1.0 A, SMA package | Higher voltage rating but lower current; faster recovery but reduced thermal margin | Select when 600 V margin is required and peak current stays ≤1.0 A |
| ON Semiconductor MUR160 | VRRM = 600 V, trr = 75 ns, IO = 1.0 A, DO-41 through-hole | Faster recovery and higher VRRM, but through-hole mounting limits automation and thermal performance | Prefer only for legacy through-hole designs where board real estate allows |
Compared with STTH1L06S and MUR160, RS2GA-13-F offers optimal balance of 400 V rating, 1.5 A current capacity, and 150 ns trr in an automated-assembly-ready SMA package - making it preferred for new SMT-based 277 VAC industrial and LED driver designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable junction temperature for RS2GA-13-F?
The absolute maximum junction temperature is +150°C, as specified in the Thermal Characteristics table. Continuous operation at this limit requires strict thermal management - including adequate copper pour, minimal trace length, and ambient temperature control - since the device derates to zero average current above 120°C terminal temperature per Figure 1.
Can RS2GA-13-F replace a standard 1N4007 in a 230 VAC application?
No - while both are rectifiers, RS2GA-13-F has VRRM = 400 V (sufficient for 230 VAC), but its fast recovery (150 ns) and lower VFM (1.3 V vs. ~1.1 V for 1N4007 at low current) make it unsuitable as a direct drop-in replacement in low-frequency, high-inductance circuits where slow recovery is acceptable. It is optimized for switching frequencies ≥20 kHz.
Is RS2GA-13-F qualified to AEC-Q101 for automotive use?
RS2GA-13-F itself is not AEC-Q101 qualified; however, Diodes offers automotive-grade variants (e.g., RS2GA-13-F-A) with PPAP documentation, IATF 16949 manufacturing, and extended testing. Standard RS2GA-13-F may be used in non-safety-critical automotive auxiliary systems if validated per customer qualification protocols.
What is the recommended PCB pad layout for RS2GA-13-F in high-current designs?
Per Diodes' suggested layout for SMA, use 5.0 mm² (minimum) copper pads per terminal, with dimensions C = 4.00 mm, G = 1.50 mm, X = 2.50 mm, X1 = 6.50 mm, Y = 1.70 mm. Thermal vias under pads are strongly advised to reduce RθJA and maintain terminal temperature ≤120°C at 1.5 A.
