Product details
Overview
SF17GHR1G 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 for freewheeling and switching-mode power supply output rectification.
For engineers reviewing the SF17GHR1G datasheet, SF17GHR1G pinout, SF17GHR1G application, or SF17GHR1G equivalent, key selection criteria include peak repetitive reverse voltage (500 V), surge current rating (30 A), junction-to-lead thermal resistance (20 °C/W), AEC-Q101 qualification status, and low leakage (5 µA @ 25°C).
Technical Context
This device is a single-die, planar passivated silicon rectifier optimized for high-frequency switching applications. Its 35 ns trr and 10 pF junction capacitance enable efficient operation in DC-DC converters up to several hundred kHz.
The SF17GHR1G operates with a maximum junction temperature of 150°C and exhibits stable reverse leakage-5 µA at 25°C and 100 µA at 125°C-supporting reliable performance in automotive under-hood environments where thermal stress is significant.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar super fast rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH1R06 | Same VRRM (600 V), slightly higher VF (1.75 V @ 1 A), trr = 30 ns, TO-220AC package | Higher thermal mass but requires mounting hardware; not axial-leaded | Select when board-level heatsinking is impractical and higher surge robustness is needed |
| ON Semi MUR105 | 50 V lower VRRM (450 V), identical DO-41 package, VF = 1.7 V, trr = 35 ns, non-AEC-Q101 | Lacks automotive qualification; suitable only for commercial/industrial use | Choose for cost-sensitive non-automotive designs where 450 V margin suffices |
Compared with STTH1R06 and MUR105, the SF17GHR1G uniquely combines AEC-Q101 qualification, DO-41 form factor, and 500 V rating-making it the only drop-in solution for space-constrained automotive power rails requiring validated reliability.

FAQ
What is the peak repetitive reverse voltage rating of SF17GHR1G?
The SF17GHR1G has a peak repetitive reverse voltage (VRRM) rating of 500 V. This value is specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table and confirmed across all electrical test conditions in the datasheet. It defines the maximum reverse-biased voltage the device can block repeatedly without breakdown. Designers should maintain at least 20% derating margin-e.g., limit applied VR to ≤400 V-for long-term reliability in harsh environments.
Is SF17GHR1G qualified to AEC-Q101 standards?
Yes, SF17GHR1G is AEC-Q101 qualified. The "H" suffix in the part number denotes qualification, and the datasheet explicitly lists AEC-Q101 qualification under FEATURES. Test reports cover HTGB, HTRB, temperature cycling, and whisker resistance per JESD201 Class 2. This makes SF17GHR1G suitable for automotive powertrain and chassis applications where component reliability is critical.
What is the forward voltage drop of SF17GHR1G at 1 A and 25°C?
The forward voltage drop (VF) of SF17GHR1G is 1.70 V at IF = 1 A and TJ = 25°C, as stated in the Electrical Specifications table. This value is measured under pulsed conditions (PW = 0.3 ms) to avoid self-heating. At elevated junction temperatures (e.g., 125°C), VF decreases slightly (~1.55 V), which must be considered in thermal design and loss calculations.
Does SF17GHR1G have a defined reverse recovery time?
Yes, SF17GHR1G 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 critical for minimizing switching losses in high-frequency converters. The datasheet confirms this value applies to SF17G and SF18G variants, and it is verified across production lots per TSC's quality protocol.
What package type does SF17GHR1G use, and what are its mechanical features?
SF17GHR1G uses the DO-204AL (DO-41) axial package. Key mechanical features include pure tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002, UL 94V-0 molding compound, cathode polarity indicated by a band, and a typical weight of 0.350 g. The package outline dimensions and marking diagram are provided in the datasheet's Package Outline Dimensions section (Version H2104, Page 5).
