Product details
Overview
S5JBH from Taiwan Semiconductor is a surface-mount silicon rectifier diode rated for 600 V repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM), 5 A average forward current (IF), and 200 A non-repetitive surge current (IFSM) at 25°C, with a maximum forward voltage of 1.1 V at 5 A and 25°C - used in automotive DC-DC converters and freewheeling paths.
For engineers reviewing the S5JBH datasheet, S5JBH pinout, S5JBH application, or S5JBH equivalent, key selection criteria include its DO-214AA (SMB) package, AEC-Q101 qualification, glass-passivated junction, 150°C max junction temperature, and 13°C/W junction-to-lead thermal resistance for thermal design validation.
Technical Context
The S5JBH is a single-die, unidirectional silicon rectifier optimized for high-reliability automotive and industrial power conversion. Its glass-passivated junction ensures stable reverse leakage (<10 µA at 25°C, <250 µA at 125°C) and robust surge handling (540 A at 1.0 ms, 25°C).
Thermally, it delivers RθJL = 13°C/W and RθJA = 47°C/W in standard SMB mounting, enabling efficient heat transfer to PCB copper or heatsink leads without auxiliary cooling in moderate-power applications.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 600 V - defines maximum allowable reverse-biased blocking voltage in continuous operation |
| IF | 5 A - maximum average forward current under specified thermal conditions (TA ≤ 75°C) |
| IFSM (8.3 ms) | 200 A - peak non-repetitive surge current capability for line-frequency transient protection |
| VF @ 5 A, 25°C | ≤1.1 V - low conduction loss critical for efficiency in 12 V/24 V automotive DC-DC stages |
| IR @ 600 V, 25°C | ≤10 µA - minimal leakage ensures stable snubber and hold-up performance |
| TJ max | +150°C - enables operation in under-hood environments per AEC-Q101 stress requirements |
| CJ @ 4 V, 1 MHz | 40 pF - low junction capacitance minimizes switching noise in high-frequency freewheeling |
Pinout & Package
Package: DO-214AA (SMB), surface-mount, single-anode/single-cathode configuration; cathode indicated by molded band; matte tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002 solderability.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (Lead 1) | Forward current entry point | Connected to lower-potential side (e.g., switch node or ground return) in freewheeling or rectification path |
| Cathode (Lead 2) | Forward current exit / reverse-blocking terminal | Connected to higher-potential rail; polarity band identifies this terminal for correct PCB placement |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q101 qualified | Validated for automotive-grade reliability including temperature cycling, HTRB, and ESD testing per stress test plan |
| Glass-passivated junction | Eliminates moisture-induced degradation and improves long-term reverse leakage stability vs. epoxy-passivated alternatives |
| Low VF (≤1.1 V @ 5 A) | Reduces conduction losses by ~15% compared to legacy 1.3 V rectifiers at same current, improving system efficiency |
| Junction-to-lead RθJL = 13°C/W | Enables direct thermal coupling to PCB copper pour or metal-core substrate without thermal vias in many 5–10 W designs |
| Moisture sensitivity level 1 | No bake preconditioning required before reflow, simplifying SMT assembly and reducing process risk |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar rectifier diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vishay VS-5EWH06-M3 | VRRM = 600 V, IF = 5 A, VF = 1.15 V (max), RθJA = 50°C/W, same DO-214AA package | Higher VF increases conduction loss; slightly higher thermal resistance limits power density | Acceptable where margin exists in thermal budget and efficiency targets allow +0.05 V VF penalty |
| ON Semiconductor MUR560G | VRRM = 600 V, IF = 5 A, VF = 1.15 V (typ), ultrafast recovery (trr = 75 ns), RθJA = 55°C/W | Faster recovery reduces switching noise but adds cost; higher RθJA requires more PCB copper | Preferred only when EMI reduction is critical and thermal layout can accommodate higher RθJA |
Compared with VS-5EWH06-M3 and MUR560G, the S5JBH offers lower thermal resistance (13°C/W RθJL) and tighter VF control (≤1.1 V), making it optimal for space-constrained automotive modules where board-level heat spreading is limited and efficiency margins are narrow.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for the S5JBH?
The S5JBH has a maximum junction temperature (TJ) rating of +150°C, validated per AEC-Q101 stress testing. This allows reliable operation in under-hood automotive environments and thermally dense industrial PCB layouts. The S5JBH must be mounted on adequate copper area to maintain junction temperature within this limit during 5 A continuous conduction.
Is the S5JBH pin-compatible with other parts in the S5GBH–S5MBH family?
Yes - all S5GBH, S5JBH, S5KBH, and S5MBH share identical DO-214AA (SMB) package dimensions, lead finish, polarity marking, and mechanical footprint. Only VRRM differs (400 V to 1000 V), so S5JBH may be substituted for S5GBH or S5KBH only if 600 V blocking suffices and thermal design accounts for identical RθJL = 13°C/W.
Does the S5JBH have a specified reverse recovery time (trr)?
No - the official S5JBH datasheet does not specify reverse recovery time. It is characterized as a general-purpose rectifier, not an ultrafast or soft-recovery device. For applications requiring trr < 100 ns, engineers should verify switching behavior empirically or select a dedicated ultrafast rectifier such as the ON Semiconductor MUR560G instead of relying on S5JBH.
What does the marking code "S5JB" on the S5JBH device indicate?
The marking code "S5JB" laser-etched on the S5JBH body identifies the specific variant within the S5x family: "S5" denotes the series, "J" corresponds to 600 V VRRM, and "B" indicates the DO-214AA (SMB) package. This matches the ordering code S5JBH and confirms correct voltage grade and packaging upon visual inspection.
How is the S5JBH protected against moisture during reflow soldering?
The S5JBH is rated Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) 1 per J-STD-020, meaning it may be stored indefinitely at ≤30°C/60% RH and subjected to standard Pb-free reflow profiles (peak ≤260°C) without baking. This eliminates pre-reflow drying steps, reducing SMT line complexity and preventing delamination risk associated with over-baking.
