Product details
Overview
SF31GHR0G from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 3A, 50V AEC-Q101-qualified super fast rectifier diode in DO-201AD package, featuring 0.95V forward voltage at 3A/25°C, 35ns reverse recovery time, and 125A surge capability - used in automotive DC-DC converters and switching inverters requiring high reliability and low conduction loss.
For engineers reviewing the SF31GHR0G datasheet, SF31GHR0G pinout, SF31GHR0G application, or SF31GHR0G equivalent, key selection criteria include repetitive peak reverse voltage (50V), junction-to-lead thermal resistance (10°C/W), AEC-Q101 qualification status, and DO-201AD mechanical compatibility with standard through-hole reflow or wave soldering processes.
Technical Context
This device is a single-die, silicon planar super fast recovery rectifier optimized for high-frequency switching applications. Its 35ns trr and low VF enable reduced switching losses in SMPS topologies operating up to several hundred kHz.
The DO-201AD package provides robust thermal performance (RθJL = 10°C/W) and meets UL 94V-0 flammability rating, while pure tin-plated leads ensure J-STD-002 solderability and JESD201 Class 2 whisker resistance - critical for automotive under-hood environments.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| IF (Avg) | 3 A - continuous forward current rating defines maximum steady-state power handling in DC-DC output stages |
| VRRM | 50 V - peak reverse blocking voltage sets minimum input/output voltage margin in buck or flyback designs |
| trr | 35 ns - reverse recovery time directly impacts switching loss and EMI in hard-switched converters |
| VF @ 3A, 25°C | 0.95 V - low forward voltage reduces conduction loss and thermal stress at rated load |
| IFSM (8.3ms) | 125 A - non-repetitive surge rating supports inrush current tolerance during startup or fault conditions |
| RθJL | 10 °C/W - junction-to-lead thermal resistance enables direct PCB copper pour heat sinking without heatsink |
| Junction Temp Range | –55°C to +150°C - extended temperature range supports operation in automotive engine compartments |
Pinout & Package
DO-201AD package: axial-leaded, molded plastic case with cathode band marking; lead material is pure tin-plated copper, compliant with J-STD-002 solderability and JESD201 Class 2 whisker requirements.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward current entry point | Connected to lower-potential node (e.g., switch node in synchronous rectification or transformer secondary) |
| Cathode | Forward current exit / reverse blocking terminal | Marked by band; ties to output rail or filter capacitor positive; blocks reverse voltage up to 50V |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q101 qualified | Validated for automotive-grade reliability including temperature cycling, HTRB, and UHAST per AEC standard |
| Super fast recovery (trr ≤ 35 ns) | Enables efficient operation in 100–500 kHz switching converters without excessive switching loss or ringing |
| Low VF (0.95 V @ 3A) | Reduces power dissipation by ~15% vs. standard fast rectifiers, lowering thermal design burden |
| DO-201AD mechanical robustness | UL 94V-0 molding compound and 1.10g mass support vibration resistance and thermal mass stability in automotive mounting |
| Halogen-free & RoHS compliant | Meets IEC 61249-2-21 and EU RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU for environmentally constrained supply chains |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar super fast rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH3L05S | 50V VRRM, 3A IF, 30ns trr, TO-220AC package (not DO-201AD) | Higher thermal mass but requires different footprint and mounting; no AEC-Q101 qualification | Preferred where higher surge margin or heatsink attachment is needed, not for space-constrained automotive PCBs |
| ON Semi MUR305 | 50V VRRM, 3A IF, 35ns trr, DO-201AD package, no AEC-Q101 | Same mechanical fit and electrical specs but lacks automotive qualification and halogen-free compliance | Acceptable for industrial non-automotive use where cost is prioritized over qualification and environmental compliance |
Compared with STTH3L05S and MUR305, SF31GHR0G uniquely combines DO-201AD form factor, AEC-Q101 qualification, halogen-free construction, and 0.95V VF - making it the only drop-in solution for automotive-grade 50V rectification where footprint, reliability, and regulatory compliance are jointly required.

FAQ
What does the "H" and "R0G" suffix mean in SF31GHR0G?
The "H" denotes AEC-Q101 qualification per the ordering code table in the SF31G–SF38G datasheet. "R0G" indicates green (halogen-free) molding compound compliant with IEC 61249-2-21. SF31GHR0G is therefore the AEC-Q101-qualified, halogen-free version of the SF31G 50V super fast rectifier in DO-201AD package.
Is SF31GHR0G pin-compatible with standard DO-201AD rectifiers like 1N5408?
Yes - SF31GHR0G uses the standard DO-201AD outline with anode and cathode leads spaced per JEDEC DO-201AD dimensions. However, unlike 1N5408 (a general-purpose rectifier with ~2μs trr), SF31GHR0G is a super fast device (35ns trr) and must be substituted only where fast recovery is required and thermal limits permit.
What is the maximum allowable PCB pad size for SF31GHR0G in reflow soldering?
Taiwan Semiconductor specifies no explicit pad size limit, but recommends using standard DO-201AD land patterns per IPC-7351B (e.g., 2.5mm lead spacing, 1.5mm pad width). Thermal relief is advised for cathode/anode pads to prevent tombstoning; SF31GHR0G's 1.10g mass and tin-plated leads support both wave and reflow processes per J-STD-002.
Does SF31GHR0G require derating at elevated ambient temperatures?
Yes - the forward current rating drops linearly above 75°C ambient per the derating curve in the datasheet. At 100°C ambient, SF31GHR0G is rated for ~2.2A average forward current. This derating is enforced by its 150°C max junction temperature and 35°C/W RθJA; proper copper pour area is essential to maintain safe TJ in SF31GHR0G applications.
Can SF31GHR0G replace SF31G in existing designs?
Yes - SF31GHR0G is a direct replacement for SF31G with identical electrical specs and DO-201AD packaging. The "HR0G" variant adds AEC-Q101 qualification and halogen-free construction, so it may be used in all SF31G applications while enabling automotive qualification and RoHS/halogen compliance without layout or thermal changes.
