Product details
Overview
SF20JG-T from Diodes Incorporated is a 2.0A, 600V peak repetitive reverse voltage super-fast glass passivated rectifier diode in DO-15 package, with 35ns reverse recovery time, 0.95V forward voltage at 2.0A, and 10µA reverse leakage at 25°C, used in high-efficiency AC/DC front-end rectification for industrial power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the SF20JG-T datasheet, SF20JG-T pinout, SF20JG-T application, or SF20JG-T equivalent, key selection criteria include VRRM=600V, trr=35ns, VFM=0.95V @2A, IRM=10µA @25°C, and DO-15 thermal resistance RθJA=40°C/W for thermal design validation.
Technical Context
This super-fast rectifier employs glass passivated die construction to achieve low reverse leakage and stable switching performance under repetitive surge conditions. Its 35ns reverse recovery time and 60A non-repetitive peak surge rating support high-frequency, high-reliability rectification in offline SMPS and UPS systems.
The device operates across –65°C to +150°C junction temperature range and exhibits 75pF typical junction capacitance at 1MHz/4V reverse bias - critical for EMI-sensitive flyback and PFC stage designs where capacitive coupling must be minimized.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 600 V - Maximum peak reverse voltage the diode blocks without breakdown; defines maximum AC input voltage compatibility (e.g., 400V DC bus or 280V RMS line). |
| IO @ 75°C | 2.0 A - Average forward current derated to ambient 75°C; requires heatsinking or airflow if operating near full load at higher ambient. |
| VFM @ 2.0A | 0.95 V - Forward voltage drop at rated DC output current; directly impacts conduction loss (1.9W dissipation at 2A) and thermal design. |
| trr | 35 ns - Reverse recovery time measured at IF=0.5A, IR=1.0A, Irr=0.25A; enables operation up to ~3–5 MHz switching frequencies before excessive switching loss dominates. |
| IRM @ 25°C | 10 µA - Peak reverse leakage at rated DC blocking voltage and room temperature; ensures minimal standby power loss in high-impedance hold-up circuits. |
| RθJA | 40 °C/W - Junction-to-ambient thermal resistance in standard DO-15 mounting (leads at ambient, 9.5mm from case); sets baseline for PCB copper area and thermal relief requirements. |
Pinout & Package
DO-15 axial-leaded plastic package with cathode band marking; lead finish is matte tin, solderable per MIL-STD-202 Method 208; weight ≈0.35 g; UL 94V-0 flammability rating.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (unmarked end) | Forward current entry node | Connected to AC input or transformer secondary; must withstand 60A surge during cold-start inrush. |
| Cathode (banded end) | Forward current exit node | Drives bulk capacitor or downstream converter; polarity reversal causes immediate failure in bridge configurations. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Glass passivated die | Enables stable 10µA IRM at 25°C and 100µA at 100°C - critical for long-term reliability in thermally cycled industrial environments. |
| Super-fast 35ns trr | Reduces switching loss by >40% vs. standard fast recovery diodes (e.g., 150ns), improving efficiency in 100–300 kHz SMPS designs. |
| 60A IFSM rating | Supports single-cycle surge tolerance for 230VAC cold-start with 2× line voltage peaks, eliminating need for external NTC inrush limiters. |
| DO-15 RoHS-compliant packaging | Tin-plated leads meet J-STD-020C Level 1 moisture sensitivity and MIL-STD-202 solderability - suitable for wave and reflow assembly without baking. |
Applications
| Industrial Switch-Mode Power Supplies | Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS) |
|---|---|

Use Value: 40°C/W RθJA allows direct mounting on aluminum chassis without heatsink, simplifying mechanical layout in compact drives. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar super-fast rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH2R06 | VRRM=600V, trr=35ns, VFM=1.15V @2A, DO-15, but 100µA IRM @25°C (10× higher leakage) | Higher leakage limits use in low-power standby circuits; same surge rating and thermal resistance | Select when cost priority outweighs leakage-critical low-noise applications |
| ES2J (ON Semiconductor) | VRRM=600V, trr=35ns, VFM=0.95V @2A, same DO-15 package, but RθJA=50°C/W (25% worse thermal performance) | Requires larger copper pour or forced air cooling above 1.5A continuous load | Prefer only if STTH2R06 is unavailable and thermal margin >15°C exists in layout |
Compared with STTH2R06 and ES2J, SF20JG-T delivers lowest combination of forward voltage (0.95V), reverse leakage (10µA), and thermal resistance (40°C/W), making it optimal for space-constrained, high-efficiency industrial rectifiers where thermal headroom and standby loss are critical.

FAQ
Is SF20JG-T still in production or actively supported?
No - SF20JG-T is officially obsolete and discontinued per Diodes Incorporated's DS24013 Rev. 4 (February 2015). No replacement part is designated. Aetrix Electronics maintains limited legacy stock for design continuity and repair, with full traceability and date-code verification.
Can SF20JG-T be substituted with SF20HG-T in the same PCB footprint?
Yes - both share identical DO-15 package, cathode band polarity, and pinout. SF20HG-T has VRRM=500V (vs. 600V), otherwise identical trr, VFM, and thermal specs. Substitution is safe only if system peak reverse voltage remains ≤500V.
What is the maximum allowable PCB trace width for 2.0A continuous current in SF20JG-T?
For 2.0A at 75°C ambient, IPC-2221 recommends ≥1.0mm (40 mil) internal trace width with 1oz copper and 10°C temperature rise. External traces require ≥0.7mm (28 mil) with solder mask-defined thermal relief to maintain RθJA ≤40°C/W.
Does SF20JG-T meet automotive AEC-Q101 qualification?
No - SF20JG-T is not AEC-Q101 qualified. It is rated for industrial temperature range (–65°C to +150°C) and intended for commercial/industrial power applications. Automotive designs require AEC-Q101-certified alternatives such as DFLS260Q or SB260-E3/54.
