Product details
Overview
SF17GHR0G from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 500 V, 1 A super fast recovery rectifier diode in DO-204AL (DO-41) package, featuring 1.70 V forward voltage at 1 A and 35 ns reverse recovery time, used in freewheeling paths and DC-DC converter secondary-side rectification.
For engineers reviewing the SF17GHR0G datasheet, SF17GHR0G pinout, SF17GHR0G application, or SF17GHR0G equivalent, key selection criteria include peak reverse voltage rating (500 V), low VF for thermal efficiency, fast trr for high-frequency switching, and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive-grade reliability.
Technical Context
This single-die silicon rectifier operates with a maximum junction temperature of 150 °C and exhibits 10 pF junction capacitance at 1 MHz and 4.0 V reverse bias. Its 35 ns reverse recovery time enables use in 100–500 kHz switching topologies.
The device supports 30 A non-repetitive surge current (8.3 ms half-sine) and achieves 20 °C/W junction-to-lead thermal resistance, enabling direct PCB trace heat sinking without auxiliary heatsinking in moderate-power applications.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 500 V - Withstands up to 500 V repetitive reverse voltage without breakdown, suitable for 380 VAC input-derived DC bus systems. |
| IF | 1 A continuous - Rated average forward current defines steady-state conduction capability in continuous conduction mode (CCM) operation. |
| VF @ 1 A, 25°C | 1.70 V - Forward voltage drop directly determines conduction loss (1.7 W at 1 A), impacting thermal design and efficiency. |
| trr | 35 ns - Fast reverse recovery minimizes switching loss and EMI in high-frequency SMPS designs above 100 kHz. |
| RθJL | 20 °C/W - Junction-to-lead thermal resistance enables reliable thermal transfer to PCB copper, supporting >0.8 A derated current at 70 °C ambient. |
| IR @ 500 V, 25°C | 5 µA - Low leakage ensures minimal standby power loss and stable voltage hold-up in hold-off circuits. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar super fast rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vishay VS-1EFH05-M3/54 | Same DO-41 package, 500 V VRRM, but VF = 1.75 V @ 1 A and trr = 50 ns. | Higher VF increases conduction loss; slower trr may require snubber in >200 kHz designs. | Acceptable where margin exists in thermal budget and switching frequency ≤150 kHz. |
| ON Semiconductor MUR150G | DO-41, 50 V lower VRRM (450 V), VF = 1.25 V @ 1 A, trr = 35 ns, not AEC-Q101 qualified. | Limited to 350 VAC-derived systems; lacks automotive qualification. | Preferred for cost-sensitive industrial supplies without automotive compliance requirement. |
Compared with VS-1EFH05-M3/54 and MUR150G, SF17GHR0G delivers tighter VF consistency (1.70 V), guaranteed AEC-Q101 compliance, and optimized trr/CJ trade-off for 200–500 kHz automotive and industrial SMPS, making it the preferred choice where reliability and high-frequency efficiency are jointly critical.

FAQ
What is the peak repetitive reverse voltage rating of SF17GHR0G?
The SF17GHR0G has a peak repetitive reverse voltage (VRRM) rating of 500 V. This value is confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table of the official Taiwan Semiconductor datasheet (Version H2104). It defines the maximum reverse-biased voltage the diode can block repeatedly without avalanche breakdown, making SF17GHR0G suitable for 400 V DC bus applications with safety margin.
Is SF17GHR0G qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, SF17GHR0G is AEC-Q101 qualified, as indicated by the "H" suffix in its ordering code and explicitly stated in the FEATURES section of the datasheet. This qualification covers stress tests including temperature cycling, high-temperature reverse bias (HTRB), and electrostatic discharge (ESD), confirming suitability for automotive underhood and powertrain-adjacent systems.
What is the forward voltage drop of SF17GHR0G at rated current?
The forward voltage (VF) of SF17GHR0G is 1.70 V at IF = 1 A and TJ = 25 °C, per the Electrical Specifications table. This value is measured under pulsed conditions (PW = 0.3 ms) and represents typical conduction loss behavior; actual VF rises with junction temperature and current, reaching ~1.95 V at 125 °C.
Does SF17GHR0G have a specified reverse recovery time?
Yes, SF17GHR0G has a maximum reverse recovery time (trr) of 35 ns, tested at IF = 0.5 A, IR = 1.0 A, and Irr = 0.25 A. This parameter is documented in the Electrical Specifications table and confirms its classification as a super fast rectifier, enabling efficient operation in switching power supplies operating up to 500 kHz.
What package type does SF17GHR0G use?
SF17GHR0G uses the DO-204AL (DO-41) axial-leaded package, as confirmed in the Mechanical Data and Ordering Information sections. The package features pure tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002, UL 94V-0 molding compound, and cathode polarity indicated by a band on the body - all consistent across the SF1xG family.
