Product details
Overview
RS2KA-13-F from Diodes Incorporated is a 1.5A surface-mount fast recovery rectifier with 800V peak repetitive reverse voltage (VRRM), 1.3V forward voltage (VFM) at 1.5A, and 250ns reverse recovery time (trr), designed for high-efficiency AC/DC front-end rectification in offline power supplies and LED drivers.
For engineers reviewing the RS2KA-13-F datasheet, RS2KA-13-F pinout, RS2KA-13-F application, or RS2KA-13-F equivalent, key selection criteria include its 800V blocking capability, 50A non-repetitive surge rating, SMA package thermal resistance (20°C/W), and suitability for automated SMT assembly in industrial and consumer power converters.
Technical Context
This device operates as a unidirectional silicon PN junction rectifier optimized for fast switching in line-frequency and quasi-resonant topologies. Its glass-passivated die construction ensures stable performance under thermal cycling and humidity stress, while the cathode-band polarity marking enables reliable orientation during automated placement.
The 250ns reverse recovery time supports reduced switching losses in flyback and boost PFC stages, and its 30pF typical junction capacitance minimizes high-frequency noise coupling in EMI-sensitive designs. Rated for -65°C to +150°C operation, it meets industrial temperature requirements without derating up to 120°C terminal temperature.
Key Specifications

Applications
| AC/DC Adapter Input Stage | LED Driver Bulk Rectification |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Universal-input (90–264VAC) 12W adapter with flyback topology and no active PFC. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary-side uncontrolled rectifier converting AC line to pulsating DC before bulk capacitor. Use Value: 800V VRRM provides 2× safety margin over 264VAC peak (373V), and 250ns trr limits switching loss during zero-crossing transitions. | Use Scenario: Constant-current LED driver for street lighting operating from 220VAC mains. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Bridge rectifier input stage feeding buck converter with 400V-rated electrolytic capacitor. Use Value: 1.3V VFM reduces conduction loss by 18% vs. 1N4007, improving thermal margin at 1.5A continuous load. |
| Industrial Power Supply Input | UPS Line-Conditioning Circuit |
Use Scenario: 24V/2A industrial SMPS with wide ambient range (-40°C to +85°C). IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Input rectifier in dual-stage design with MOV and X-cap filtering prior to PFC controller. Use Value: -65°C to +150°C operating range ensures startup at low temperature and sustained operation under enclosure heating. | Use Scenario: Online UPS with automatic bypass and line-interactive topology. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Rectifier in auxiliary power supply that remains active during battery mode to sustain control logic. Use Value: 50A IFSM withstands generator-sourced surges and utility switching transients without failure. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar fast recovery rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH1L08S | 800V VRRM, 1A IO, 150ns trr, TO-277 package | Lower current rating requires parallel use for 1.5A loads; faster recovery suits higher-frequency designs | Select when board space allows larger TO-277 footprint and trr <200ns is critical |
| ON Semiconductor MUR160 | 600V VRRM, 1A IO, 75ns trr, DO-41 through-hole | Insufficient voltage rating for universal-input AC/DC; not SMT-compatible | Only suitable for 115VAC-only or low-voltage DC-DC input stages with through-hole assembly |
Compared with STTH1L08S and MUR160, RS2KA-13-F uniquely balances 1.5A current, 800V rating, SMA SMT compatibility, and 250ns recovery-making it optimal for cost-sensitive, space-constrained industrial and consumer AC/DC converters where 600V alternatives risk overstress and 1A devices require derating.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable PCB pad temperature during reflow soldering for RS2KA-13-F?
The RS2KA-13-F is rated for Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 per J-STD-020, meaning it may be exposed to unlimited floor life and withstand peak reflow temperatures up to 260°C for 10 seconds. Its molded plastic package and matte tin plating are qualified for standard lead-free reflow profiles without delamination or solderability degradation.
Does RS2KA-13-F meet AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive use?
No-RS2KA-13-F is not AEC-Q101 qualified. The datasheet explicitly states that automotive-grade versions require specific change control, PPAP capability, and IATF 16949 manufacturing; this part is intended for industrial and commercial applications only. For automotive use, Diodes offers the RS2KHE3_A/H variant with full AEC-Q101 certification.
How does the 20°C/W thermal resistance translate to real-world PCB layout?
RθJT = 20°C/W assumes mounting on a 5.0 mm² copper pad (0.013 mm thick). To achieve this, designers must use the recommended SMA pad layout (C = 4.00 mm, G = 1.50 mm, X = 2.50 mm) with at least two thermal vias per pad connected to inner-layer ground planes, avoiding excessive solder mask coverage over thermal pads.
Can RS2KA-13-F replace RS2MA-13-F in an existing design?
Yes-RS2KA-13-F (800V) and RS2MA-13-F (1000V) share identical SMA package, pinout, thermal characteristics, and forward voltage. Substituting RS2KA-13-F for RS2MA-13-F is safe if the circuit's peak reverse voltage never exceeds 800V; however, doing so reduces voltage margin by 200V, which may compromise reliability in high-line or surge-prone environments.
