Product details
Overview
SF2004PTH from Taiwan Semiconductor is a dual-die, positive-center-tap superfast rectifier in TO-247AD package, rated for 200 V repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM), 20 A average forward current (IF), and 35 ns reverse recovery time (trr). It delivers low forward voltage (1.100 V at 20 A, 25°C) and high efficiency in DC–DC converters and snubber circuits.
For engineers reviewing the SF2004PTH datasheet, SF2004PTH pinout, SF2004PTH application, or SF2004PTH equivalent, key selection factors include its AEC-Q101 qualification, dual-die center-tap configuration, thermal resistance of 2.5°C/W, and compatibility with high-frequency switching topologies requiring fast recovery and low conduction loss.
Technical Context
The SF2004PTH integrates two identical silicon die in a single TO-247AD package with shared cathode and isolated anodes-enabling center-tapped full-wave rectification without external wiring. Its glass-passivated junctions ensure robustness against moisture and contamination.
Designed for high-efficiency power conversion, it supports operation up to 150°C junction temperature, exhibits 10 µA max reverse leakage at 25°C, and maintains stable capacitance (175 pF typical) across 1 MHz at 4 V reverse bias-critical for EMI control in SMPS designs.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar superfast rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH2002CT | 200 V VRRM, 20 A IF, 35 ns trr, TO-247 package, but single-die dual-anode (not center-tap); higher VF (1.25 V @ 20 A). | Requires external center-tap wiring or transformer redesign; less compact layout. | Select when board-level flexibility outweighs integration benefit and thermal margin permits higher VF. |
| IXYS MUR2020CT | 200 V VRRM, 20 A IF, 30 ns trr, TO-247 package, center-tap, AEC-Q101 qualified; slightly faster but higher cost. | Direct functional replacement with improved speed; same footprint and mounting. | Choose when <5 ns trr reduction justifies premium pricing in noise-sensitive or ultra-high-frequency designs. |
Compared with STTH2002CT and IXYS MUR2020CT, the SF2004PTH offers optimal balance of integrated center-tap convenience, AEC-Q101 compliance, and thermally efficient TO-247AD packaging-making it preferred for space-constrained automotive and industrial power supplies where layout simplicity and reliability are prioritized.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for the SF2004PTH?
The SF2004PTH has a maximum junction temperature (TJ) of +150°C, verified per absolute maximum ratings in the official datasheet. This rating allows reliable operation in under-hood automotive environments and high-ambient industrial enclosures. Thermal design must maintain case-to-ambient conditions within limits using the specified 2.5°C/W junction-to-case resistance. The SF2004PTH must not exceed this limit during steady-state or transient operation.
Is the SF2004PTH pin-compatible with other parts in the SF200xPT series?
Yes-the SF2004PTH shares identical TO-247AD package dimensions, pinout (A1/A2/K), and mounting specifications with all SF2001PT through SF2008PT variants. Voltage rating differences (50–600 V) do not affect physical compatibility. Engineers may substitute within the series for prototyping or BOM optimization, provided electrical parameters like VRRM and VF meet circuit requirements. The SF2004PTH retains full mechanical interchangeability.
Does the SF2004PTH require derating at elevated ambient temperatures?
Yes-the SF2004PTH must be derated linearly above 25°C ambient per its forward current derating curve. At 100°C case temperature, its average forward current drops to approximately 12 A. Derating ensures junction temperature remains ≤150°C. Designers must calculate total thermal resistance (RθJA) and apply appropriate heatsinking. The SF2004PTH datasheet provides exact derating values in Figure 1.
What does the "H" suffix in SF2004PTH signify?
The "H" suffix in SF2004PTH indicates full AEC-Q101 qualification-verified through stress testing including HTSL, TC, UHAST, and mechanical shock per automotive reliability standards. This distinguishes it from non-H variants (e.g., SF2004PT), which lack automotive qualification. The SF2004PTH is approved for use in automotive powertrain and body electronics where extended temperature cycling and long-term reliability are mandatory.
How does the SF2004PTH compare to standard fast recovery diodes in switching performance?
The SF2004PTH achieves 35 ns reverse recovery time (trr), significantly faster than standard fast recovery diodes (typically 50–100 ns). This reduces switching losses, voltage overshoot, and EMI generation in high-frequency converters. Its 175 pF junction capacitance and low stored charge further improve dynamic behavior. In practical use, the SF2004PTH enables cleaner waveforms and higher efficiency in 100–500 kHz SMPS designs compared to legacy alternatives.
