Product details
Overview
S5J M6G from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 5 A, 600 V surface-mount silicon rectifier diode in DO-214AB (SMC) package, featuring low forward voltage drop (≤1.15 V at 5 A, 25°C), high surge current capability (100 A, 8.3 ms), and junction temperature rating up to +150°C. It serves as a primary output rectifier in offline AC/DC power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the S5J M6G datasheet, S5J M6G pinout, S5J M6G application, or S5J M6G equivalent, key selection criteria include repetitive peak reverse voltage (600 V), thermal resistance (RθJL = 13 °C/W), reverse recovery time (1500 ns), and moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1).
Technical Context
The S5J M6G is a single-die, glass-passivated standard recovery rectifier optimized for switching-mode power conversion. Its 600 V VRRM and 100 A IFSM support robust operation under transient overloads in universal-input SMPS designs.
With RθJA = 47 °C/W and RθJL = 13 °C/W, it enables efficient heat transfer to PCB copper or heatsink via cathode lead. Reverse recovery time of 1500 ns reflects its standard-recovery behavior-suitable for <100 kHz topologies where soft recovery is not required.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 600 V - Withstands peak reverse voltage in 400 V DC bus applications with 50% safety margin |
| IF | 5 A continuous - Supports output stages delivering up to ~60 W at 12 V with adequate heatsinking |
| IFSM | 100 A (8.3 ms) - Survives inrush and short-circuit events without bond-wire fusing |
| VF | ≤1.15 V @ 5 A, 25°C - Limits conduction loss to ≤5.75 W at full load, reducing thermal stress |
| trr | 1500 ns - Compatible with flyback and forward converters operating below 100 kHz switching frequency |
| RθJL | 13 °C/W - Enables direct thermal path from die to PCB pad, critical for compact SMC layouts |
| MSL Level | Level 1 (per J-STD-020) - No bake requirement prior to reflow; compatible with standard SMT assembly |
Pinout & Package
DO-214AB (SMC) package: molded plastic case with matte tin-plated leads, cathode band marking, UL 94V-0 rated compound, and 0.210 g typical weight.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Input terminal for forward conduction | Connected to transformer secondary or switch node; carries full load current during on-state |
| Cathode | Output terminal for forward conduction | Connected to output capacitor and load; serves as primary thermal conduction path to PCB |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Glass-passivated junction | Enhances long-term reliability under humidity and bias stress; eliminates need for conformal coating in industrial environments |
| Low VF (≤1.15 V) | Reduces power dissipation by ~15% vs. legacy 1.3 V rectifiers at 5 A, improving efficiency in 12–24 V output rails |
| Junction-to-lead thermal resistance (13 °C/W) | Allows >70% of heat to be conducted through cathode lead to PCB copper, enabling smaller heatsinks |
| MSL Level 1 rating | Eliminates pre-bake step in manufacturing, reducing SMT line downtime and handling risk |
| Halogen-free (IEC 61249-2-21) | Meets RoHS and IPC-1752A reporting requirements for green electronics compliance |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH5L06S | VRRM = 600 V, IF = 5 A, trr = 75 ns (ultrafast), VF = 1.7 V @ 5 A | Better suited for >200 kHz PFC or resonant topologies requiring fast recovery | Choose STTH5L06S only if trr < 100 ns is mandatory; accept higher conduction loss. |
| ON Semi MUR560 | VRRM = 600 V, IF = 5 A, trr = 75 ns, VF = 1.75 V, RθJA = 50 °C/W | Higher VF and worse thermal resistance reduce efficiency in thermally constrained layouts | Select MUR560 only if ultrafast recovery is prioritized over thermal performance and efficiency. |
Compared with STTH5L06S and MUR560, the S5J M6G trades faster recovery for lower forward loss and superior thermal conduction-making it optimal for cost-sensitive, medium-frequency (<100 kHz), high-efficiency SMPS where thermal management is critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for the S5J M6G?
The S5J M6G has a maximum junction temperature (TJ) rating of +150°C, verified per absolute maximum ratings table. This allows reliable operation in enclosed industrial power supplies where ambient temperatures reach 70°C and power dissipation is managed via PCB copper area. The S5J M6G must be derated above 25°C ambient per the forward current derating curve in the datasheet.
Does the S5J M6G have a halogen-free construction?
Yes, the S5J M6G uses halogen-free molding compound compliant with IEC 61249-2-21, confirmed in the "Features" section of the official Taiwan Semiconductor datasheet (Version F2102). This supports environmental compliance for export to EU, Japan, and other regulated markets without requiring material declarations beyond standard RoHS reporting.
What is the reverse recovery time (trr) specification for the S5J M6G?
The S5J M6G has a reverse recovery time (trr) of 1500 ns, measured under IF = 0.5 A, IR = 1.0 A, and Irr = 0.25 A conditions. This value is specified in the Electrical Specifications table and confirms its classification as a standard-recovery rectifier-appropriate for flyback and forward converters operating below 100 kHz, not high-frequency resonant topologies.
Is the S5J M6G suitable for automated SMT placement?
Yes, the S5J M6G is explicitly designed for automated placement, as stated in the "Features" list. Its DO-214AB (SMC) package, matte tin-plated leads, and MSL Level 1 rating ensure compatibility with standard pick-and-place machines and reflow profiles without pre-baking, supporting high-yield, high-volume manufacturing.
How is polarity indicated on the S5J M6G package?
Polarity on the S5J M6G is indicated by a visible cathode band printed on the body of the DO-214AB (SMC) package. This band aligns with the cathode terminal, which must be connected toward the positive output side of the circuit. The marking diagram in the datasheet confirms "P/N = Marking Code" and shows the band adjacent to the "S5J" laser marking.
