Product details
Overview
SF30JG-T from Diodes Incorporated is a 3.0A, 600V super-fast glass passivated rectifier diode in DO-201AD package, featuring 35ns reverse recovery time, 0.95V forward voltage at 3.0A, and 125A non-repetitive peak surge current. It serves as primary-side output rectifier in offline SMPS, PFC stages, and DC-DC converters requiring high efficiency and low switching loss.
For engineers reviewing the SF30JG-T datasheet, SF30JG-T pinout, SF30JG-T application, or SF30JG-T equivalent, key selection criteria include VRRM = 600V, IO = 3.0A @ TA = 55°C, trr = 35ns, VF = 0.95V @ 3.0A, and DO-201AD thermal resistance of 32°C/W - critical for flyback and boost converter thermal design.
Technical Context
This super-fast rectifier uses diffused junction construction and glass passivation to achieve low reverse leakage (5.0µA @ 25°C) and stable performance across -65°C to +150°C operating range. Its 35ns reverse recovery time enables high-frequency operation up to 100kHz in hard-switched topologies without excessive switching loss.
The device is rated for 600V peak repetitive reverse voltage with 420V RMS rating, and exhibits 75pF typical junction capacitance at 4V reverse bias and 1MHz - supporting fast transient response in snubberless designs and reducing EMI generation in compact power supplies.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 600 V - Withstands 600V peak reverse voltage in bridge or single-phase rectification without breakdown. |
| IO | 3.0 A @ TA = 55°C - Sustains continuous average forward current under standard heatsink-free PCB mounting conditions. |
| trr | 35 ns - Enables efficient operation in 50–100 kHz SMPS with minimal reverse recovery loss and reduced diode-induced ringing. |
| VF | 0.95 V @ IF = 3.0 A - Low conduction loss improves system efficiency, especially in high-current secondary-side rectification. |
| IFSM | 125 A @ 8.3 ms - Handles inrush and overload transients in AC-DC adapters and industrial power supplies without failure. |
| RθJA | 32 °C/W - Junction-to-ambient thermal resistance defines required PCB copper area (≥1.5 cm² 2oz Cu) for safe operation at full load. |
Pinout & Package
DO-201AD axial-leaded plastic package with cathode band marking; two-terminal device (anode and cathode), lead finish: matte tin, RoHS-compliant, UL 94V-0 rated molding compound.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward current entry point | Connected to lower-potential side (e.g., transformer secondary center-tap or switch node in synchronous rectifier topology). |
| Cathode | Forward current exit / reverse blocking terminal | Marked with band; connects to output rail or positive bus; blocks 600V reverse voltage during off-state. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Glass passivated die | Prevents moisture ingress and surface contamination, ensuring long-term reliability in humid or industrial environments. |
| Diffused junction | Provides soft reverse recovery characteristic and reduces EMI compared to abrupt-junction fast rectifiers. |
| 125A surge rating | Supports cold-start inrush and line-voltage transients without parametric shift or catastrophic failure. |
| Low IR (5.0 µA) | Minimizes standby power loss in energy-efficient adapters meeting DOE Level VI and EU CoC Tier 2 requirements. |
Applications
| AC-DC Adapter Output Rectification | Boost PFC Stage Diode |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar super-fast rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH3L06S | Same 600V VRRM, but 3.0A IO rated at TA = 75°C; trr = 45ns; higher VF = 1.15V @ 3A. | Higher thermal derating margin but increased conduction loss; better suited for forced-air-cooled systems. | Select when ambient exceeds 55°C and airflow is available; avoid in sealed, convection-only enclosures. |
| ES3J | 600V VRRM, 3.0A IO @ 55°C, trr = 35ns, but VF = 1.30V @ 3A and RθJA = 40°C/W. | Higher forward drop and worse thermal resistance limit usable current in compact PCB layouts. | Acceptable only in cost-sensitive, low-efficiency designs where 0.35V extra VF loss is tolerable. |
Compared with STTH3L06S and ES3J, SF30JG-T delivers the lowest VF (0.95V) and best thermal resistance (32°C/W) among 600V/3A super-fast rectifiers in DO-201AD, making it optimal for space-constrained, natural-convection-powered SMPS.

FAQ
Is SF30JG-T suitable for new designs?
No - Diodes Incorporated explicitly marks SF30JG-T as "NOT RECOMMENDED FOR NEW DESIGN" in its official datasheet (DS37836 Rev. 1–3). It remains available for legacy production and repair, but engineers should evaluate modern alternatives like the DFLS360 or SB360 for new projects requiring improved efficiency or extended lifecycle support.
What is the maximum allowable junction temperature for SF30JG-T?
The absolute maximum junction temperature is +150°C, with storage temperature matching that range (–65°C to +150°C). Derating begins above 55°C ambient: Figure 1 shows linear current reduction to zero at +150°C ambient, implying safe operation up to ~125°C junction under typical PCB thermal conditions with 32°C/W RθJA.
Does SF30JG-T have a specified avalanche rating?
No - the datasheet does not specify unclamped inductive switching (UIS) or avalanche energy rating. The device is designed for clamped or resistive-inductive loads per standard rectifier test conditions; use external TVS or RC snubbers if subjected to inductive turn-off stress.
Can SF30JG-T replace SF30FG-T in an existing design?
Yes - both share identical DO-201AD package, pinout, and thermal characteristics, differing only in VRRM (600V vs. 300V) and trr (35ns vs. 50ns). SF30JG-T offers higher voltage margin and faster recovery, but verify layout clearance and snubber tuning due to reduced reverse recovery tail.
