Product details
Overview
S1AB-13 from Diodes Incorporated is a surface-mount, glass-passivated general-purpose silicon rectifier diode in SMB package, rated for 100 V peak repetitive reverse voltage (VRRM), 1.0 A average forward current (IO) at 100°C terminal temperature, and 30 A non-repetitive surge current (IFSM). It delivers low forward voltage drop (≤1.1 V @ 1.0 A) and fast recovery (trr ≤ 3.0 μs), making it suitable for AC/DC input rectification in compact power supplies and DC-DC converter front-ends.
For engineers reviewing the S1AB-13 datasheet, S1AB-13 pinout, S1AB-13 application, or S1AB-13 equivalent, key selection criteria include its SMB footprint compatibility, thermal resistance (RθJT = 30 °C/W), reverse leakage performance (≤5.0 μA @ 25°C), and RoHS-compliant lead-free matte tin plating - all critical for high-volume, thermally constrained industrial and consumer power designs.
Technical Context
This SMB-packaged rectifier operates as a unidirectional current-conducting device in single-phase, half-wave configurations with resistive or inductive loads. Its glass-passivated die construction ensures stable junction integrity under thermal cycling and humidity exposure, while the 30 A surge rating supports transient line-event tolerance without derating in standard 60 Hz mains applications.
The device exhibits typical reverse recovery time of 1.8 μs (max 3.0 μs) under defined test conditions (IF = 0.5 A, IR = 1.0 A, IRR = 0.25 A), and junction-to-terminal thermal resistance of 30 °C/W when mounted on 5.0 mm² copper pads - enabling predictable thermal design in PCB-limited space.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 100 V - Maximum peak reverse voltage the diode blocks reliably without breakdown; defines safe AC input voltage headroom. |
| IO @ TT=100°C | 1.0 A - Continuous forward current capability with 100°C terminal temperature; sets minimum heatsinking requirement. |
| VFM @ IF=1.0A | ≤1.1 V - Forward voltage drop at rated current; directly impacts conduction loss and thermal load in rectifier stage. |
| IFSM (8.3ms) | 30 A - Non-repetitive surge current handling; enables robustness against inrush and lightning-induced transients. |
| trr | ≤3.0 μs - Reverse recovery time; limits switching losses and EMI generation in higher-frequency rectification. |
| RθJT | 30 °C/W - Junction-to-terminal thermal resistance; used to calculate junction temperature rise above PCB pad temperature. |
| IRM @ 25°C | ≤5.0 μA - Peak reverse leakage at rated blocking voltage and room temperature; affects standby power in offline converters. |
Pinout & Package
S1AB-13 uses the SMB (DO-214AA) surface-mount plastic package with cathode band polarity marking. The two-terminal device has no internal connections beyond anode and cathode; mounting requires compliant solder profile per MIL-STD-202, Method 208.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward current entry point | Connected to AC source or transformer secondary; must withstand full surge current and reverse voltage stress. |
| Cathode | Forward current exit point | Marked by band; ties to output capacitor or downstream regulator; carries full load current and defines output reference node. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Glass passivated die | Eliminates need for hermetic sealing while maintaining >1000-hour HAST reliability; reduces cost vs. ceramic-packaged alternatives. |
| Lead-free matte tin plating | Enables Pb-free reflow assembly without solderability degradation; complies with RoHS 2 (2011/65/EU) and JEDEC J-STD-020 Level 1 moisture sensitivity. |
| UL 94V-0 molded plastic case | Provides flame-retardant housing essential for safety-certified power adapters and industrial equipment enclosures. |
| Low RθJT (30 °C/W) | Allows direct thermal coupling to PCB copper; eliminates need for discrete heatsinks in <5 W output applications. |
Applications
| AC/DC Wall Adapters | USB Power Delivery Modules |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Rectifying 50/60 Hz AC input after transformer step-down in Class II isolated power supplies. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: General-purpose rectifier converting AC to pulsating DC prior to bulk capacitance filtering.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary-side rectifier in flyback-derived auxiliary supply; handles intermittent surges from relay coil back-EMF. Use Value: 30 A IFSM rating absorbs inductive kick without failure; glass passivation ensures long-term stability in humid industrial environments. | Use Scenario: Bridge rectification in constant-current LED drivers for commercial lighting fixtures. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: One leg of full-wave bridge converting AC line to DC bus for buck/boost LED controller IC. Use Value: Fast trr (≤3.0 μs) reduces switching noise coupled into sensitive current-sense paths; RoHS/Green compliance meets EU lighting directives. |
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 MMBD7000LT1G | Lower VRRM (100 V same), but lower IO (200 mA), smaller SOT-23 package, higher VFM (1.25 V @ 100 mA). | Not suitable for 1 A continuous loads; limited to signal-level or low-power bias applications. | Select only if space is critical and current demand is ≤200 mA. |
| Vishay VS-1N4007TR | Higher VRRM (1000 V), axial lead DO-41 package, same 1 A IO, higher VFM (1.1 V @ 30 mA), no RoHS/Green compliance. | Requires through-hole assembly and larger board area; unsuitable for automated SMT lines. | Choose only for legacy repair or high-voltage legacy designs where SMB footprint is not required. |
Compared with MMBD7000LT1G and VS-1N4007TR, S1AB-13 uniquely balances 1 A current capability, SMB SMT compatibility, RoHS/Green compliance, and 100 V blocking in a single industry-standard package - making it optimal for new-design, high-volume, thermally constrained AC/DC conversion.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature for S1AB-13?
The S1AB-13 has an operating junction and storage temperature range of –65°C to +150°C. Its 1.0 A average forward current rating is specified at a terminal temperature of +100°C, meaning the PCB copper pad must be maintained at or below this temperature under full load to meet datasheet performance guarantees.
Is S1AB-13 compatible with lead-free reflow processes?
Yes. S1AB-13 features matte tin lead-free plating and is qualified per JEDEC J-STD-020 Level 1 moisture sensitivity. It supports standard Pb-free reflow profiles up to 260°C peak temperature, with no pre-bake required, and meets MIL-STD-202, Method 208 solderability requirements.
How does S1AB-13 differ from S1A-13?
S1AB-13 uses the larger SMB (DO-214AA) package with higher thermal mass and 30 °C/W RθJT, while S1A-13 uses the smaller SMA (DO-214AC) package with 40 °C/W RθJT. Both share identical electrical ratings (100 V VRRM, 1.0 A IO), but S1AB-13 offers better thermal performance and surge handling due to its larger copper interface area.
Can S1AB-13 be used in full-wave bridge configurations?
Yes. S1AB-13 is commonly used as one quadrant in discrete full-wave bridge rectifiers. Its 100 V VRRM rating supports use in 120 VAC applications (peak ~170 V) only when paired with appropriate voltage derating or snubbing; for 230 VAC systems, S1J-13 (600 V) or higher-rated variants are recommended.
