Product details
Overview
S1KLS from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 1.2A, 800V repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM) standard surface-mount silicon rectifier diode in SOD-123HE package, designed for high-efficiency DC/DC conversion and switching-mode power supplies where compact size, low forward voltage (≤1.3 V at 1.2 A), and 50 A surge capability are critical.
For engineers reviewing the S1KLS datasheet, S1KLS pinout, S1KLS application, or S1KLS equivalent, key selection factors include its 800 V VRRM, 1.2 A average forward current rating, SOD-123HE thermal performance (RθJA = 86 °C/W), and cathode-band polarity marking for reliable automated placement in high-volume PCB assembly.
Technical Context
The S1KLS is a single-die, planar-passivated silicon PN junction rectifier optimized for fast recovery and low conduction loss in medium-voltage SMPS front-end and output stages. Its 800 V VRRM and 50 A IFSM support robust operation under transient overvoltage and inrush conditions.
Thermal design is enabled by its SOD-123HE package with matte tin-plated leads and 46 °C/W junction-to-lead resistance, validated on 5 mm × 5 mm Cu pad test board per JESD 51-3. Reverse leakage remains ≤5 µA at 25 °C and ≤150 µA at 125 °C under rated VR.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 800 V - Maximum non-repetitive reverse voltage the device blocks without breakdown; defines usable input voltage range in AC/DC and DC/DC converters. |
| IF | 1.2 A - Continuous average forward current at TA = 25 °C; sets steady-state power handling in rectification paths. |
| IFSM | 50 A - Peak non-repetitive surge current (8.3 ms half-sine); enables survival during cold-start or short-circuit transients. |
| VF | ≤1.3 V @ 1.2 A, 25 °C - Forward voltage drop directly impacts conduction loss and thermal rise in high-current paths. |
| TJ max | +175 °C - Maximum junction temperature; supports operation in thermally constrained industrial and automotive under-hood environments. |
| RθJA | 86 °C/W - Junction-to-ambient thermal resistance on standard PCB; determines required copper area and airflow for thermal management. |
Pinout & Package
Package: SOD-123HE - Surface-mount plastic package with gull-wing leads, UL 94V-0 molding compound, moisture sensitivity level 1, and cathode band polarity indicator. Weight: 0.022 g.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward current entry point | Connected to lower-potential side of AC source or switch node; must be routed with adequate current-carrying trace width. |
| Cathode | Forward current exit point | Marked by visible band; connects to output capacitor or load return; polarity error causes open-circuit failure. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| High surge current capability | 50 A IFSM enables reliable operation during line surges and inrush events without derating. |
| Low forward voltage | VF ≤ 1.3 V at full rated current reduces conduction loss and improves system efficiency in 12–48 V output rails. |
| Compact SOD-123HE footprint | Enables high-density layout in space-constrained DC/DC modules and adapter PCBs without sacrificing thermal performance. |
| Moisture sensitivity level 1 | Eliminates bake requirements prior to reflow, reducing manufacturing cost and cycle time in automated SMT lines. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar rectifier diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ON Semiconductor MUR120SFT1G | 200 V VRRM, 1.2 A IF, faster recovery (~75 ns), TO-277 package | Lower voltage rating limits use to <200 V circuits; faster recovery suits higher-frequency topologies | Select when operating frequency exceeds 100 kHz and voltage stress is ≤200 V. |
| Vishay VS-1N4007-M3/54 | 1000 V VRRM, 1 A IF, DO-41 through-hole, 30 A IFSM | Lower current rating and through-hole mounting restrict use to low-density, low-volume, or legacy designs | Choose only for prototyping or replacement in existing DO-41 layouts where SMD is not feasible. |
Compared with MUR120SFT1G and VS-1N4007-M3/54, the S1KLS uniquely balances 800 V blocking, 1.2 A continuous current, SOD-123HE surface-mount compatibility, and industrial-grade thermal specs-making it optimal for modern, high-density, medium-voltage SMPS designs requiring no layout compromise.

FAQ
What is the maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM) for the S1KLS?
The S1KLS has a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM) of 800 V, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This value is fixed for the S1KLS variant within the S1DLS–S1MLS series and defines the highest reverse-biased voltage the diode can block continuously without breakdown. It is verified per JEDEC test conditions and applies at TA = 25 °C.
Does the S1KLS have a specified forward voltage (VF) at full rated current?
Yes, the S1KLS has a maximum forward voltage (VF) of 1.3 V at IF = 1.2 A and TJ = 25 °C, per the Electrical Specifications table. This value is measured under pulsed conditions (PW = 0.3 ms) and represents the worst-case conduction loss under nominal load, critical for thermal and efficiency calculations in the S1KLS application.
What package type is used for the S1KLS, and what are its key mechanical attributes?
The S1KLS uses the SOD-123HE surface-mount package, featuring matte tin-plated gull-wing leads compliant with J-STD-002, UL 94V-0 molding compound, polarity indicated by a cathode band, and a weight of approximately 0.022 g. Its dimensions and pad layout are standardized per TSC's Package Outline Drawings, enabling direct integration into automated SMT lines.
Is the S1KLS RoHS and halogen-free compliant?
Yes, the S1KLS is RoHS compliant and halogen-free per IEC 61249-2-21, as explicitly stated in the FEATURES section of the official documentation. These compliance statements apply specifically to the S1KLS variant and are verified through material declarations and third-party testing per TSC's quality assurance process.
What is the peak forward surge current (IFSM) rating for the S1KLS, and under what condition is it defined?
The S1KLS has a peak forward surge current (IFSM) rating of 50 A, defined for an 8.3 ms single half-sine wave superimposed on rated load, per the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This rating ensures the S1KLS can survive common power-line transients and inrush currents without degradation, provided junction temperature remains within limits during the event.
