Product details
Overview
SF12G R0G 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 current rating. It serves as a freewheeling or output rectifier in high-frequency switching power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the SF12G R0G datasheet, SF12G R0G pinout, SF12G R0G application, or SF12G R0G equivalent, key selection criteria include VRRM = 100 V, IF = 1 A, trr = 35 ns, VF = 0.95 V, and thermal resistance RθJL = 20 °C/W - all critical for efficiency and reliability in DC-DC converters and SMPS designs.
Technical Context
The SF12G R0G is a single-die, planar junction silicon rectifier optimized for high-speed switching. Its super fast recovery (trr ≤ 35 ns) minimizes switching losses in 50–500 kHz converters, while low VF reduces conduction loss under continuous 1A DC load.
Designed for surface-mount compatible through-hole assembly, it uses pure tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002 and meets JESD201 Class 2 whisker resistance. The DO-204AL package supports 150°C maximum junction temperature and UL 94V-0 molding compound.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 100 V - Maximum repetitive reverse voltage; defines safe blocking capability in 12–48V output rectification stages |
| IF | 1 A - Continuous forward current rating; supports steady-state operation in compact DC-DC modules without forced cooling |
| trr | 35 ns - Reverse recovery time; enables efficient operation up to ~500 kHz switching frequency with minimal tail current loss |
| VF | 0.95 V @ 1A, 25°C - Low forward voltage drop; reduces power dissipation to ≤0.95 W at full rated DC current |
| RθJL | 20 °C/W - Junction-to-lead thermal resistance; allows direct PCB copper pad heat sinking for thermal management |
| IFSM | 30 A - Non-repetitive surge current (8.3 ms); withstands startup inrush and transient overloads in industrial SMPS |
| CJ | 20 pF @ 1 MHz, 4 V - Junction capacitance; contributes to low EMI in high-dv/dt switching nodes |
Pinout & Package
DO-204AL (DO-41) axial lead package with cathode band marking; leads are pure tin-plated, solderable per J-STD-002, and meet JESD201 Class 2 whisker resistance. Weight: 0.350 g.

Applications
| DC-DC Converter Output Rectification | Switching Mode Power Supply Freewheeling |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Used as secondary-side rectifier in isolated flyback or forward converters delivering 5–24V at ≤1A. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Unidirectional current valve converting high-frequency AC from transformer secondary into regulated DC output. Use Value: 35 ns trr and 0.95 V VF jointly reduce total power loss by ≥0.3 W vs. standard fast rectifiers at 100 kHz, improving thermal margin. | Use Scenario: Placed across inductive loads (e.g., solenoids, relay coils, motor windings) in 24–48V industrial control systems. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Provides low-impedance path for inductor current decay during switch-off, preventing voltage spikes. Use Value: 100 V VRRM safely clamps transients up to 80 V peak; 30 A IFSM handles repeated inductive kick energy without degradation. |
| AC-DC Adapter Secondary Rectification | LED Driver Constant-Current Loop |
Use Scenario: Rectifies transformer output in compact wall adapters (e.g., 12V/1A for routers or IoT gateways). IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Converts high-frequency transformer AC into smoothed DC before linear or buck regulation. Use Value: DO-204AL footprint enables cost-effective through-hole assembly; 0.35 g weight supports lightweight portable design requirements. | Use Scenario: Serves as freewheeling diode in buck-based LED drivers powering 10–20 W architectural lighting arrays. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Maintains continuous LED current during PWM dimming cycles by recirculating inductor energy. Use Value: 20 pF CJ limits capacitive coupling noise into sensitive current-sense paths, preserving dimming linearity. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar super fast rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH1R01AP | VRRM = 100 V, trr = 25 ns, VF = 0.97 V @ 1A - slightly faster but higher VF; DO-41 package | Optimized for ultra-high-frequency (>1 MHz) resonant converters where trr dominates loss | Select when minimizing reverse recovery charge is prioritized over forward conduction loss |
| ON Semi MUR110E | VRRM = 100 V, trr = 50 ns, VF = 0.92 V @ 1A - slower recovery but lowest VF; same DO-41 package | Better suited for lower-frequency (<100 kHz) SMPS where conduction loss dominates | Select when thermal budget is constrained and switching frequency is ≤60 kHz |
Compared with STTH1R01AP and MUR110E, the SF12G R0G delivers balanced performance: its 35 ns trr and 0.95 V VF make it optimal for 100–300 kHz industrial DC-DC converters where both switching and conduction losses must be jointly minimized without package change.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for SF12G R0G?
The SF12G R0G has a maximum junction temperature (TJ) of +150°C, verified per absolute maximum ratings in the official Taiwan Semiconductor datasheet Version H2104. This rating enables reliable operation in enclosed industrial enclosures or under moderate airflow, provided thermal design respects RθJL = 20°C/W and RθJA = 80°C/W limits. Derating curves confirm 1A continuous current is sustainable up to 100°C ambient with adequate copper pour.
Does SF12G R0G have AEC-Q101 qualification?
The base SF12G R0G is not AEC-Q101 qualified; however, the pin-identical variant SF12GH (with 'H' suffix) is fully AEC-Q101 qualified per Version H2104 documentation. SF12G R0G shares identical electrical and thermal specifications with SF12GH but lacks the automotive-grade stress test validation required for under-hood use. For non-automotive industrial applications, SF12G R0G remains fully suitable.
What is the reverse recovery time (trr) specification for SF12G R0G?
The SF12G R0G has a maximum reverse recovery time (trr) of 35 ns, measured under conditions IF = 0.5 A, IR = 1.0 A, and Irr = 0.25 A, as specified in the Electrical Specifications table of the Taiwan Semiconductor datasheet. This value is confirmed across the SF11G–SF14G subgroup and enables efficient operation in switching power supplies operating up to 500 kHz without excessive switching loss or EMI generation.
Is SF12G R0G RoHS and halogen-free compliant?
Yes, SF12G R0G is RoHS compliant and halogen-free per IEC 61249-2-21, as explicitly stated in the FEATURES section of the Taiwan Semiconductor datasheet. The molding compound contains no brominated or chlorinated flame retardants, and lead content is below 1000 ppm. This compliance supports export to EU, China, and other regulated markets requiring full substance declarations.
What does the 'R0G' suffix indicate in SF12G R0G?
The 'R0G' suffix in SF12G R0G denotes packaging and environmental compliance: 'R0' indicates tape-and-reel packaging (5,000 pcs per reel), and 'G' signifies green (halogen-free) compound per IEC 61249-2-21. This matches the ordering code structure defined in the datasheet's ORDERING INFORMATION section, where SF1xG = standard green version in tape-and-reel, distinct from SF1xG A0G (ammo box) or SF1xGH (AEC-Q101 qualified).
