Product details
Overview
SF34G A0G from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 3A, 200V super fast recovery rectifier diode in DO-201AD package, featuring 35ns reverse recovery time, 0.95V forward voltage at 3A/25°C, and 125A surge capability - deployed in DC-DC converter freewheeling paths for high-efficiency power conversion.
For engineers reviewing the SF34G A0G datasheet, SF34G A0G pinout, SF34G A0G application, or SF34G A0G equivalent, key selection criteria include VRRM=200V, trr=35ns, VF=0.95V @3A, RθJL=10°C/W, and DO-201AD mechanical compatibility with automated through-hole assembly.
Technical Context
This single-die silicon rectifier uses epitaxial planar construction to achieve fast switching with low stored charge. Its 35ns reverse recovery time (IF=0.5A, IR=1.0A, Irr=0.25A) enables operation in high-frequency SMPS topologies up to several hundred kHz.
Thermal performance is defined by RθJL=10°C/W and RθJA=35°C/W, supporting continuous 3A conduction at ≤75°C ambient when mounted on standard copper land patterns. The cathode band polarity marking ensures unambiguous PCB orientation during manual or automated placement.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 200 V - Maximum repetitive reverse voltage; sets upper limit for off-state blocking in flyback/freewheeling circuits |
| IF | 3 A - Continuous average forward current; defines steady-state thermal design basis at TA ≤ 75°C |
| IFSM | 125 A - Non-repetitive surge rating; supports inrush and transient overload without failure |
| trr | 35 ns - Reverse recovery time; determines switching loss and EMI profile in >100 kHz converters |
| VF | 0.95 V @ 3A, 25°C - Forward voltage drop; directly impacts conduction loss and thermal rise under load |
| RθJL | 10 °C/W - Junction-to-lead thermal resistance; enables accurate thermal modeling using lead temperature as proxy |
| CJ | 80 pF @ 1MHz, VR=4V - Junction capacitance; affects high-frequency noise coupling and snubber design |
Pinout & Package
DO-201AD axial-leaded package with cathode indicated by a painted band; leads are pure tin-plated, J-STD-002 solderable, and meet JESD201 Class 2 whisker resistance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (unbanded end) | Forward current entry point | Connected to switch node or inductor output in freewheeling path; requires thermal relief pad for heat dissipation |
| Cathode (banded end) | Forward current exit / reverse blocking terminal | Connected to output rail or ground return; polarity must match schematic symbol to prevent reverse breakdown |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar super fast rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH3L02S (STMicroelectronics) | VRRM=200V, IF=3A, trr=30ns, VF=0.92V @3A, SOD-123FL package | Surface-mount only; requires reflow-compatible layout and lacks axial lead mechanical robustness | Preferred for space-constrained PCBs where automated SMT is available and thermal mass is limited |
| ES3D (ON Semiconductor) | VRRM=200V, IF=3A, trr=35ns, VF=0.97V @3A, DO-204AL (DO-41) package | Same speed and rating but larger DO-41 body; 1.5g weight vs. SF34G A0G's 1.1g | Used where legacy DO-41 footprint exists and higher surge margin (IFSM=150A) is prioritized over weight or size |
Compared with STTH3L02S and ES3D, SF34G A0G offers optimal balance of axial-mount reliability, 1.1g lightweight construction, and verified 35ns trr performance in through-hole power stages - especially where mechanical shock resistance and wave-solder compatibility are required.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for SF34G A0G?
The SF34G A0G has a maximum junction temperature (TJ MAX) of +150°C, validated across its full operating range. This rating allows reliable operation in enclosed industrial enclosures with ambient temperatures up to +75°C when mounted on standard 1-inch² copper land pattern per JEDEC 51-3. Derating curves in the SF34G A0G datasheet confirm 3A continuous current is sustainable at TJ ≤ 150°C.
Does SF34G A0G meet automotive qualification standards?
The SF34G A0G itself is not AEC-Q101 qualified; however, the pin-compatible SF34GH variant (same DO-201AD package, identical electrical specs) is fully AEC-Q101 certified. For automotive applications requiring qualification, SF34GH must be specified - SF34G A0G is intended for industrial and commercial power supplies where AEC-Q101 is not mandated.
What is the reverse leakage current specification for SF34G A0G at elevated temperature?
At TJ = 125°C and rated VRRM = 200V, the SF34G A0G exhibits a maximum reverse leakage current (IR) of 100 µA, measured under pulse conditions (PW = 30ms). At 25°C, IR is ≤5 µA. This low leakage supports stable operation in high-impedance feedback networks and minimizes standby power loss in always-on systems.
How does the junction capacitance of SF34G A0G affect EMI in high-frequency designs?
SF34G A0G has a typical junction capacitance (CJ) of 80 pF at 1MHz and VR = 4V. In 200–500 kHz SMPS designs, this value contributes to high-frequency common-mode noise coupling across the transformer barrier. Layout best practices - such as minimizing loop area and adding RC snubbers - are recommended to suppress ringing caused by CJ interacting with circuit stray inductance.
Is SF34G A0G compatible with lead-free wave soldering processes?
Yes, SF34G A0G features pure tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002 and rated for lead-free wave soldering (peak temperature ≤ 260°C, 10s max). Its DO-201AD molding compound meets UL 94V-0 flammability rating, and the device passes JESD201 Class 2 whisker testing - ensuring long-term solder joint integrity in RoHS-compliant manufacturing lines.
