Product details
Overview
SE20FJ-M3/I from Vishay General Semiconductor is a surface-mount standard rectifier diode in the eSMP® Series, configured as a single silicon junction device with 600 V maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM), 2.0 A average forward current (IF(AV)), and 0.85 V forward voltage at 2.0 A and 125 °C. It is used for power line polarity protection in automotive, industrial, and commercial DC power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the SE20FJ-M3/I datasheet, SE20FJ-M3/I pinout, SE20FJ-M3/I application, or SE20FJ-M3/I equivalent, key selection factors include its DO-219AB (SMF) package compatibility, AEC-Q101 qualification path (via HM3 suffix), low thermal resistance (RθJM = 20 °C/W), and 175 °C maximum junction temperature capability.
Technical Context
This device implements an oxide planar chip junction structure enabling low forward voltage drop and low leakage current. Its 920 ns typical reverse recovery time (trr) and 13 pF junction capacitance at 4.0 V/1 MHz support moderate-speed switching in non-resonant rectification circuits.
Designed for wave and reflow soldering, it meets J-STD-020 MSL Level 1 and JESD 201 Class 2 whisker test requirements. The matte tin-plated terminals and halogen-free, RoHS-compliant molding compound align with automotive and industrial reliability standards.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar standard rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vishay SE20FJHM3/I | AEC-Q101 qualified; identical electrical specs and DO-219AB package | Required for automotive production; same layout but different qualification status | Select SE20FJHM3/I when automotive PPAP compliance is mandatory |
| ON Semiconductor MUR220SFT1G | Higher VRRM (200 V), faster trr (75 ns), TO-220AC package | Not surface-mount; requires heatsink for 2 A operation; suited for higher-frequency SMPS | Choose only if faster recovery and higher surge rating outweigh SMT and footprint constraints |
Compared with SE20FJ-M3/I, SE20FJHM3/I adds AEC-Q101 qualification without electrical or mechanical change, while MUR220SFT1G trades SMT compatibility and thermal efficiency for ultrafast recovery-making it unsuitable for drop-in replacement but viable where speed dominates layout priorities.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for SE20FJ-M3/I?
The SE20FJ-M3/I has a maximum junction temperature (TJ) rating of +175 °C, verified per Vishay's thermal characterization data. This allows sustained operation in high-ambient environments such as under-hood automotive locations or enclosed industrial power supplies. Derating curves confirm usable current capacity up to this limit when mounted on the specified 10 mm × 10 mm copper pad. SE20FJ-M3/I maintains parameter stability within spec across its full -55 °C to +175 °C operating range.
Is SE20FJ-M3/I AEC-Q101 qualified?
No, SE20FJ-M3/I is not AEC-Q101 qualified. The HM3 suffix variant (e.g., SE20FJHM3/I) carries the AEC-Q101 qualification. SE20FJ-M3/I shares identical electrical and mechanical specifications-including DO-219AB package, VRRM = 600 V, and IF(AV) = 2.0 A-but lacks the extended stress testing required for automotive qualification. SE20FJ-M3/I remains suitable for industrial and commercial applications where AEC-Q101 is not mandated.
What does the "I" suffix mean in SE20FJ-M3/I?
The "I" suffix in SE20FJ-M3/I denotes the packaging configuration: 13-inch diameter plastic tape and reel, with a base quantity of 10,000 units per reel. This contrasts with the "H" suffix (e.g., SE20FJ-M3/H), which indicates a 7-inch reel containing 3,000 units. Both share identical device die, SMF (DO-219AB) package, and halogen-free/RoHS-compliant construction. SE20FJ-M3/I is optimized for high-volume SMT line feeding.
How does SE20FJ-M3/I compare to SE20FD-M3/I and SE20FG-M3/I?
SE20FJ-M3/I differs from SE20FD-M3/I and SE20FG-M3/I solely in maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage: SE20FJ-M3/I is rated at 600 V, SE20FG-M3/I at 400 V, and SE20FD-M3/I at 200 V. All three share identical package (DO-219AB), thermal characteristics (RθJA = 130 °C/W), forward voltage (0.85 V @ 2.0 A, 125 °C), and reverse leakage (100 μA @ 125 °C). SE20FJ-M3/I is selected when higher input voltage isolation or safety margin is required in the application design.
What is the reverse recovery time (trr) of SE20FJ-M3/I and its design implication?
The SE20FJ-M3/I has a typical reverse recovery time (trr) of 920 ns under IF = 0.5 A, IR = 1.0 A, and Irr = 0.25 A test conditions. This value reflects moderate-speed recovery suitable for line-frequency and low-to-mid frequency (<100 kHz) switching applications such as basic flyback converters or choke-input filters. It is not intended for high-frequency ZVS or resonant topologies where sub-100 ns recovery is required. SE20FJ-M3/I's trr contributes directly to switching loss and EMI profile in hard-switched designs.
