Product details
Overview
SF12G B0G from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 1A, 100V super fast recovery rectifier diode in DO-204AL (DO-41) package, featuring 35ns reverse recovery time, 0.95V forward voltage at 1A/25°C, and 30A surge capability - used in DC-DC converters and switching-mode power supplies for efficient freewheeling and output rectification.
For engineers reviewing the SF12G B0G datasheet, SF12G B0G pinout, SF12G B0G application, or SF12G B0G equivalent, key selection criteria include VRRM = 100 V, IF = 1 A, trr = 35 ns, VF = 0.95 V, and DO-41 mechanical compatibility in high-frequency power conversion designs.
Technical Context
The SF12G B0G implements a single-die silicon PN junction optimized for super-fast switching with low stored charge, enabling reduced switching losses in high-frequency SMPS topologies. Its 35 ns reverse recovery time and 20 °C/W junction-to-lead thermal resistance support reliable operation under repetitive surge conditions up to 30 A (8.3 ms half-sine).
Designed for unidirectional conduction, it features a cathode-banded polarity marking, pure tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002, and UL 94V-0 mold compound - meeting automotive-grade reliability per AEC-Q101 when ordered with 'H' suffix (not applicable to B0G variant).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 100 V - maximum repetitive reverse voltage before breakdown; sets upper limit for circuit blocking capability |
| IF | 1 A - continuous average forward current rating at TA = 75°C; defines steady-state power handling |
| trr | 35 ns - measured at IF = 0.5 A, IR = 1.0 A, Irr = 0.25 A; enables operation up to ~3 MHz switching frequencies |
| VF | 0.95 V @ 1 A, 25°C - forward voltage drop directly impacts conduction loss and thermal rise in output stage |
| RθJL | 20 °C/W - junction-to-lead thermal resistance; determines temperature rise above lead temperature under 1 A DC load |
| IFSM | 30 A - non-repetitive peak surge current (8.3 ms half-sine); supports inrush and fault-current tolerance |
Pinout & Package
DO-204AL (DO-41) axial-leaded package with cathode indicated by a painted band on the body; leads are pure tin-plated, solderable per J-STD-002, and meet JESD 201 Class 2 whisker resistance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward current entry point | Connected to lower-potential node (e.g., switch node in buck converter); must withstand 30 A surge |
| Cathode | Forward current exit / reverse-blocking terminal | Marked by band; connects to output rail; blocks 100 V reverse bias during off-state |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Super fast recovery | trr = 35 ns enables high-frequency operation (>1 MHz) with minimal switching loss |
| Low forward voltage | VF = 0.95 V @ 1 A reduces conduction loss and improves efficiency in 12–48 V output stages |
| High surge robustness | IFSM = 30 A supports startup surges and transient overloads without failure |
| Thermally efficient package | RθJL = 20 °C/W allows direct heat transfer to PCB copper or heatsink via lead frame |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar super fast rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH1R010U (STMicroelectronics) | VRRM = 100 V, trr = 30 ns, VF = 0.92 V @ 1 A - slightly faster and lower VF, but DO-204AL package identical | Same footprint and function; preferred where <5 ns trr reduction justifies sourcing change | Select STTH1R010U if optimizing for lowest possible switching loss in >500 kHz designs |
| ES1B (ON Semiconductor) | VRRM = 100 V, trr = 35 ns, VF = 0.98 V @ 1 A - nearly identical timing, +0.03 V higher VF, same DO-41 package | Drop-in replacement with no layout change; suited for cost-sensitive industrial BOMs | Choose ES1B when prioritizing second-source availability and qualification continuity over marginal VF gain |
Compared with STTH1R010U and ES1B, the SF12G B0G offers balanced performance: identical trr to ES1B but lower VF, and slightly higher VF than STTH1R010U while maintaining Taiwan Semiconductor's process consistency and traceable green compound (G-marked).

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for SF12G B0G?
The SF12G B0G has a maximum junction temperature (TJ) of +150°C, with an operating range from –55°C to +150°C. This rating allows reliable use in enclosed power supplies and industrial environments where ambient temperatures exceed 70°C, provided thermal design accounts for RθJL = 20°C/W and appropriate PCB copper area is allocated for heat dissipation. The SF12G B0G must not exceed this limit during continuous or surge operation.
Does SF12G B0G meet AEC-Q101 automotive qualification?
No, SF12G B0G does not meet AEC-Q101 qualification. The 'B0G' suffix indicates standard commercial-grade packaging (green compound, ammo box packing), whereas AEC-Q101 qualification requires the 'H' suffix (e.g., SF12GH). Only variants explicitly marked with 'H' undergo stress testing per AEC-Q101 Rev D; SF12G B0G is rated for industrial and consumer applications only.
What is the reverse leakage current specification for SF12G B0G at elevated temperature?
At TJ = 125°C and rated reverse voltage (100 V), the SF12G B0G exhibits a maximum reverse leakage current (IR) of 100 µA, per pulse test (PW = 30 ms). At 25°C, IR is limited to 5 µA. This low leakage ensures minimal standby power loss in battery-backed or energy-sensitive systems using the SF12G B0G as a hold-up or isolation diode.
Can SF12G B0G be used as a direct replacement for 1N4934 in existing designs?
Yes, SF12G B0G is a functional upgrade to 1N4934: both are DO-41 packaged 100 V/1 A fast rectifiers, but SF12G B0G offers trr = 35 ns vs. 1N4934's 200 ns, and VF = 0.95 V vs. ~1.1 V. No PCB changes are needed due to identical pinout and dimensions; however, improved switching speed may require re-evaluation of snubber networks in high-dV/dt circuits using the SF12G B0G.
What does the 'B0G' suffix mean in SF12G B0G ordering code?
The 'B0G' suffix in SF12G B0G denotes packaging and environmental compliance: 'B' indicates tape-and-reel packaging (5,000 pcs/reel), '0' is a placeholder, and 'G' specifies halogen-free, RoHS-compliant green molding compound per IEC 61249-2-21. It is distinct from 'H' (AEC-Q101 qualified) or 'A0G' (ammo box packing). The SF12G B0G is supplied in 5,000-unit reels with J-STD-002 solderable leads.
