Product details
Overview
RS2MA-T from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 1000 V, 2 A fast recovery surface-mount rectifier in DO-214AC (SMA) package, featuring 500 ns reverse recovery time, 1.03 V forward voltage at 2 A/25°C, and 10 pF junction capacitance. It serves as a primary AC/DC input rectifier in high-voltage switching power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the RS2MA-T datasheet, RS2MA-T pinout, RS2MA-T application, or RS2MA-T equivalent, key selection criteria include peak reverse voltage rating, thermal resistance (RθJL = 14 °C/W), surge current capability (IFSM = 50 A), and low leakage (<5 µA @ 25°C).
Technical Context
The RS2MA-T employs a single-die, glass-passivated PN junction optimized for fast recovery in high-frequency switching topologies. Its 1000 V VRRM and 500 ns trr enable use in PFC stages and offline SMPS where voltage margin and switching loss are critical.
Thermal performance is defined with RθJL = 14 °C/W and RθJA = 86 °C/W on a 5 mm × 5 mm Cu pad, supporting continuous 2 A operation up to 150 °C junction temperature under proper PCB layout.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar fast recovery rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH2R06 | 600 V VRRM, 2 A, 60 ns trr, TO-220AC package | Lower voltage rating; requires redesign for 1000 V systems; higher thermal mass but no SMT compatibility | Select when ultra-fast recovery (<100 ns) is prioritized over voltage rating and board space |
| ES2J | 600 V VRRM, 2 A, 35 ns trr, DO-214AC (SMA) package | Same footprint but insufficient VRRM for 1000 V designs; better for 230 VAC-derived 400 V bus | Choose only if system maximum reverse voltage remains ≤600 V and faster trr justifies reduced margin |
Compared with STTH2R06 and ES2J, the RS2MA-T uniquely delivers 1000 V blocking capability in an SMT DO-214AC package with balanced 500 ns recovery-enabling compact, high-voltage front-end designs without through-hole compromises or voltage derating.

FAQ
What is the maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage rating for RS2MA-T?
The RS2MA-T has a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM) of 1000 V, verified per TSC D2111 datasheet Section "Absolute Maximum Ratings." This rating applies under standard test conditions (TA = 25°C) and defines the highest transient reverse voltage the device can block repeatedly without breakdown. Designers should maintain ≥20% margin below this value in final layouts to accommodate line surges and ringing.
Does RS2MA-T support automated SMT assembly?
Yes, RS2MA-T is qualified for automated surface-mount placement per its DO-214AC (SMA) package and matte tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002 solderability requirements. Its moisture sensitivity level is rated Level 1 (unlimited floor life at ≤30°C/85% RH), eliminating bake requirements prior to reflow. The cathode band marking ensures consistent orientation during vision-guided placement.
What is the reverse recovery time (trr) of RS2MA-T and how is it measured?
The RS2MA-T has a reverse recovery time (trr) of 500 ns, measured under conditions of IF = 0.5 A, IR = 1.0 A, and IRR = 0.25 A per TSC D2111 datasheet Section "Electrical Specifications." This parameter reflects the time required for minority carriers to clear the junction after forward conduction, directly impacting switching loss and EMI in high-frequency converters.
Is RS2MA-T RoHS and halogen-free compliant?
Yes, RS2MA-T is RoHS compliant and halogen-free per IEC 61249-2-21, as confirmed in the "Features" section of the TSC D2111 datasheet. The molding compound meets UL 94V-0 flammability rating, and all materials are subject to TSC's substance restriction policy, making it suitable for consumer, industrial, and automotive-qualified power supply designs.
What thermal resistance values apply to RS2MA-T in standard PCB mounting?
When mounted on a standard 5 mm × 5 mm copper pad per JEDEC test board guidelines, RS2MA-T exhibits RθJL = 14 °C/W (junction-to-lead), RθJC = 23 °C/W (junction-to-case), and RθJA = 86 °C/W (junction-to-ambient). These values enable accurate thermal modeling for 2 A continuous operation up to 150 °C junction temperature in well-designed layouts.
