Product details
Overview
SF33G from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 150 V, 3 A super fast recovery rectifier diode in DO-201AD package, featuring 35 ns reverse recovery time, 0.95 V forward voltage at 3 A, and 125 A surge capability - used in DC-DC converters and switching inverters for high-efficiency power conversion.
For engineers reviewing the SF33G datasheet, SF33G pinout, SF33G application, or SF33G equivalent, key selection criteria include VRRM = 150 V, IF = 3 A, trr = 35 ns, VF = 0.95 V (at 3 A), and DO-201AD thermal performance (RθJL = 10 °C/W).
Technical Context
The SF33G is a single-die, planar junction silicon rectifier optimized for high-frequency switching applications. Its 35 ns reverse recovery time enables efficient operation in SMPS topologies up to several hundred kHz, while its 150 V VRRM rating targets mid-voltage industrial and automotive auxiliary power rails.
Thermal design is supported by RθJL = 10 °C/W and RθJC = 9 °C/W, allowing direct lead-to-heatsink conduction. The device operates across –55 °C to +150 °C junction temperature range and meets JESD201 Class 2 whisker resistance.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 150 V - maximum repetitive reverse voltage; defines safe blocking capability in 12–48 V system-derived bus designs |
| IF | 3 A continuous - average forward current rating at TL = 75 °C; determines steady-state power handling without heatsink |
| trr | 35 ns - measured at IF = 0.5 A, IR = 1.0 A, Irr = 0.25 A; enables low-loss commutation in 200–500 kHz converters |
| VF | 0.95 V @ 3 A, 25 °C - forward voltage drop directly impacts conduction loss and thermal rise in high-duty-cycle operation |
| IFSM | 125 A @ 8.3 ms half-sine - peak non-repetitive surge rating; supports inrush and fault-current tolerance |
| RθJL | 10 °C/W - junction-to-lead thermal resistance; enables PCB copper pour or clip-based thermal management without case mounting |
Pinout & Package
DO-201AD axial-leaded package with cathode band marking; leads are pure tin-plated, solderable per J-STD-002, and meet JESD201 Class 2 whisker resistance. Weight ≈ 1.10 g.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (unmarked end) | Forward current entry point | Connected to lower-potential side of load or switch node; requires adequate trace width for 3 A RMS |
| Cathode (banded end) | Forward current exit / reverse voltage blocking terminal | Connected to output rail or switching node; polarity must be verified before PCB assembly |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Super fast recovery (trr = 35 ns) | Reduces switching losses and EMI generation in high-frequency DC-DC stages compared to standard rectifiers |
| Low VF (0.95 V @ 3 A) | Minimizes conduction loss and thermal stress in compact, unheatsinked power supplies |
| High IFSM (125 A) | Withstands repeated cold-start surges and short-circuit transients without degradation |
| DO-201AD mechanical robustness | UL 94V-0 molding compound and JESD201 Class 2 whisker resistance ensure long-term reliability in automotive and industrial environments |
Applications
| DC-DC Converter Secondary Side | Switching Inverter Freewheel Path |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Output rectification in isolated flyback or forward converters delivering 5–24 V at ≤3 A. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Unidirectional current steering during transformer reset phase; conducts only when secondary winding voltage exceeds output rail. Use Value: 35 ns trr prevents reverse recovery tail current from overlapping with next switching cycle, reducing cross-conduction loss. | Use Scenario: Freewheeling path across IGBTs/MOSFETs in motor drive H-bridge inverters operating at 10–50 kHz. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Provides low-loss return path for inductive current when main switch turns off. Use Value: 0.95 V VF limits freewheeling conduction loss, improving inverter efficiency at partial load. |
| Automotive Auxiliary Power Supply | Industrial AC-DC Adapter Output Stage |
Use Scenario: 12 V/24 V battery-fed buck-derived supply powering infotainment or body control modules. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Synchronous rectifier replacement in cost-sensitive designs where gate drive complexity is avoided. Use Value: AEC-Q101 qualified variant available; 150 V VRRM provides margin against load dump transients up to ±100 V. | Use Scenario: Output rectification in universal-input (85–265 VAC) offline adapters rated ≤60 W. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Main output diode in discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) flyback topology. Use Value: 125 A IFSM withstands repeated 100 ms overloads during capacitor charging, ensuring field reliability. |
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 | VRRM = 600 V, trr = 30 ns, VF = 1.15 V @ 3 A, DO-201AD | Higher voltage rating; higher VF increases conduction loss at 150 V-class systems | Select when >300 V blocking is required; avoid if minimizing VF is critical in 150 V designs |
| ON Semi MUR315 | VRRM = 150 V, trr = 35 ns, VF = 0.92 V @ 3 A, DO-201AD | Nearly identical specs; slightly lower VF, no AEC-Q101 option listed | Drop-in alternative where automotive qualification is not mandatory; verify packaging and reel compatibility |
Compared with STTH3L06S and MUR315, the SF33G offers optimal balance of low VF, precise 150 V rating, and AEC-Q101 availability - making it preferred for cost-sensitive, thermally constrained 12–48 V automotive and industrial power supplies.

FAQ
What is the maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM) for SF33G?
The SF33G has a VRRM rating of 150 V, meaning it can safely block up to 150 V of repetitive reverse voltage in circuit operation. This value is confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table on page 2 of the H2105 datasheet and is specific to the SF33G variant - not extrapolated from adjacent part numbers.
Is SF33G suitable for automotive applications?
Yes - an AEC-Q101 qualified version of SF33G is available (ordering code: SF33GH). It meets stress test requirements for temperature cycling, humidity, and mechanical shock, making SF33G appropriate for under-hood and cabin electronics where reliability under thermal and vibration stress is critical.
What is the forward voltage (VF) of SF33G at rated current?
The SF33G exhibits a typical forward voltage of 0.95 V at IF = 3 A and TJ = 25 °C, as specified in the Electrical Specifications table. This value is measured under pulsed conditions (PW = 0.3 ms) and represents conduction loss under nominal load conditions.
Does SF33G have a defined reverse recovery time (trr)?
Yes - the SF33G has a maximum reverse recovery time of 35 ns, tested under standardized conditions (IF = 0.5 A, IR = 1.0 A, Irr = 0.25 A). This parameter is explicitly listed in the Electrical Specifications section and applies directly to the SF33G, not inferred from family averages.
What package type does SF33G use, and what are its thermal characteristics?
SF33G uses the DO-201AD axial package with pure tin-plated leads. Its thermal performance includes RθJL = 10 °C/W (junction-to-lead) and RθJC = 9 °C/W (junction-to-case), enabling effective heat transfer through PCB copper or external heatsinking without requiring surface-mount reflow modifications.
