Product details
Overview
SF28G-T from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 2 A, 600 V super fast rectifier diode in DO-204AC (DO-15) package, featuring 1.70 V forward voltage at 2 A and 35 ns reverse recovery time. It delivers high surge current capability (50 A), low power loss, and operates up to 150 °C junction temperature - ideal for high-efficiency DC-DC converters and switching inverters.
For engineers reviewing the SF28G-T datasheet, SF28G-T pinout, SF28G-T application, or SF28G-T equivalent, key selection criteria include its 600 V repetitive peak reverse voltage, 35 ns trr, 1.70 V VF at 2 A, thermal resistance (RθJA = 65 °C/W), and DO-204AC mechanical compatibility in space-constrained power stages.
Technical Context
The SF28G-T employs a glass-passivated single-die silicon junction optimized for fast switching in high-voltage SMPS topologies. Its 600 V VRRM rating supports primary-side rectification in offline converters, while the 35 ns reverse recovery time enables operation at frequencies up to several hundred kHz without excessive switching loss.
Thermally, it features RθJC = 16 °C/W and RθJA = 65 °C/W, enabling 2 A continuous conduction with minimal heatsinking in ambient temperatures up to 75 °C. The cathode-band polarity marking and pure tin-plated leads ensure reliable soldering per J-STD-002.
Key Specifications

| IF | 2 A continuous - suitable for medium-power DC-DC outputs and auxiliary rails |
| trr | 35 ns - enables efficient operation at ≥200 kHz switching frequencies |
| VF @ 2 A | 1.70 V - contributes to <1.5 W conduction loss at full load |
| IFSM | 50 A - withstands inrush and transient surges in industrial power systems |
| TJ max | 150 °C - allows operation in sealed enclosures or high-ambient environments |
| CJ @ 1 MHz | 20 pF - minimizes capacitive coupling noise in high-dV/dt circuits |

| Cathode (Lead 2) | Current exit terminal during forward conduction | Marked with band; connects to output rail or positive bus in freewheeling paths |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

Applications
| DC-DC Converter Output Rectification | Switching Inverter Freewheeling Diode |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Secondary-side synchronous or non-synchronous rectification in isolated 24–48 V output DC-DC modules. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Unidirectional current path enabling energy transfer from transformer secondary to output capacitor. Use Value: 1.70 V VF and 35 ns trr reduce total losses by >0.8 W vs. slower 600 V diodes at 2 A/200 kHz. | Use Scenario: Freewheeling path across inductive loads (e.g., motor windings or solenoids) in half-bridge inverters. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Provides low-loss recirculation path during high-side switch off-time. Use Value: 600 V VRRM withstands reflected inductive spikes; 50 A IFSM handles motor stall currents. |
| Offline SMPS Primary Clamp Diode | Industrial Power Supply Input Bridge Leg |
Use Scenario: Clamp diode in RCD snubber networks for flyback or forward converter MOSFETs. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Absorbs leakage inductance energy during MOSFET turn-off. Use Value: 600 V rating matches 650 V MOSFETs; fast trr prevents energy re-injection into the switch. | Use Scenario: Single leg of a discrete bridge rectifier in 3-phase or high-voltage single-phase industrial PSUs. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Conducts half-wave rectified current with minimal conduction drop and thermal rise. Use Value: DO-204AC form factor allows direct replacement of legacy 600 V rectifiers; 150 °C TJ max supports derating in enclosed cabinets. |
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 | Same 600 V VRRM, 2 A IF, but VF = 1.75 V @ 2 A; trr = 30 ns; TO-220AC package | Larger footprint; better thermal dissipation but requires PCB real estate and mounting hardware | Prefer when board-level thermal management allows TO-220 and tighter trr is critical |
| ES2D | 600 V VRRM, 2 A IF, VF = 1.7 V @ 2 A, trr = 35 ns, same DO-204AC package | Identical mechanical fit; slightly higher IR (10 µA @ 25 °C vs. 5 µA for SF28G-T) | Drop-in alternative where leakage sensitivity is low and supply chain diversification is needed |
Compared with STTH2R06 and ES2D, the SF28G-T offers the lowest leakage (5 µA), identical trr, and smallest footprint - making it optimal for compact, thermally constrained, low-noise offline power supplies where leakage-induced standby loss matters.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for the SF28G-T?
The SF28G-T has a maximum junction temperature (TJ max) of +150 °C, allowing operation in high-ambient environments such as enclosed industrial power supplies or automotive under-hood auxiliary converters. This rating is validated per JEDEC test conditions and supports derating curves up to 75 °C ambient at full 2 A load when mounted on standard FR-4 PCB with 1-inch² copper pour.
Does the SF28G-T have a specified reverse recovery time, and how is it measured?
Yes, the SF28G-T has a typical reverse recovery time (trr) of 35 ns, measured under IF = 0.5 A, IR = 1.0 A, and Irr = 0.25 A per JEDEC standard test conditions. This value is confirmed across production lots and applies directly to the SF28G-T - not extrapolated from lower-voltage variants in the SF2xG-T series.
Is the SF28G-T RoHS compliant and halogen-free?
Yes, the SF28G-T is RoHS compliant and halogen-free per IEC 61249-2-21. The molding compound contains no brominated flame retardants, and the pure tin-plated leads meet J-STD-002 solderability requirements. Certificate of Compliance is available upon request for SF28G-T shipments.
What is the forward voltage drop of the SF28G-T at rated current?
The SF28G-T exhibits a maximum forward voltage (VF) of 1.70 V at 2 A and 25 °C junction temperature, as specified in the electrical characteristics table. This value is measured under pulse conditions (PW = 0.3 ms) and remains stable across the full operating temperature range up to 125 °C.
Can the SF28G-T replace the SF27G-T in an existing design?
Yes, the SF28G-T can directly replace the SF27G-T (500 V) in most designs, provided the circuit's peak reverse voltage does not exceed 500 V - the SF28G-T's 600 V rating provides additional margin. No layout or biasing changes are required, as both share identical DO-204AC packaging, pinout, thermal specs, and forward characteristics.
