Product details
Overview
SF65G from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 400V, 6A super fast recovery rectifier diode in DO-201AD package, featuring 35ns reverse recovery time, 1.300V forward voltage at 6A/25°C, and 150A surge capability - deployed in high-frequency DC-DC converters and switching inverters requiring low conduction loss and fast commutation.
For engineers reviewing the SF65G datasheet, SF65G pinout, SF65G application, or SF65G equivalent, key selection criteria include VRRM = 400V, IF = 6A, trr = 35ns, VF = 1.300V (6A, 25°C), and thermal resistance RθJL = 5°C/W - critical for thermal design in compact power stages.
Technical Context
The SF65G employs a single-die silicon PN junction optimized for super-fast recovery (trr ≤ 35ns), enabling efficient operation in 50–500 kHz switching topologies. Its 400V VRRM rating and 150A IFSM support robust handling of transient overcurrents in flyback and forward converters.
Thermally, the DO-201AD package delivers RθJL = 5°C/W and RθJA = 40°C/W, allowing sustained 6A average current with moderate heatsinking. Junction capacitance is 50pF at 4V, minimizing capacitive switching losses in high-dv/dt environments.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 400 V - Maximum repetitive reverse voltage before breakdown; sets upper limit for circuit blocking voltage in SMPS output stages. |
| IF | 6 A - Continuous average forward current at TA = 75°C; defines steady-state power delivery capacity. |
| trr | 35 ns - Reverse recovery time under IF = 0.5A, IR = 1.0A, Irr = 0.25A; enables high-frequency switching with minimal turn-off loss. |
| VF | 1.300 V @ 6A, 25°C - Forward voltage drop; directly determines conduction loss (Pcond ≈ 7.8W at full load). |
| CJ | 50 pF @ 1MHz, 4V - Junction capacitance; impacts EMI generation and snubber sizing in hard-switched converters. |
| RθJL | 5 °C/W - Junction-to-lead thermal resistance; enables direct thermal coupling to PCB copper or heatsink via lead frame. |
Pinout & Package
DO-201AD package: axial-leaded, molded plastic case with cathode band marking; leads are pure tin-plated, J-STD-002 solderable; polarity indicated by cathode band; weight ≈ 1.20g.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (unmarked end) | Forward current entry point | Connected to lower-potential node (e.g., switch node in freewheeling path); must handle 6A continuous and 150A surge. |
| Cathode (banded end) | Forward current exit / reverse blocking terminal | Connected to higher-potential rail (e.g., output capacitor positive); withstands 400V reverse bias and controls recovery behavior. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Super-fast recovery (trr ≤ 35ns) | Reduces turn-off switching loss and EMI in 100–500 kHz converters, improving efficiency over standard fast rectifiers. |
| Low forward voltage (1.300 V @ 6A) | Lowers conduction loss by ~15% vs. comparable 400V rectifiers with VF > 1.45V, extending thermal margin in space-constrained designs. |
| High surge rating (IFSM = 150A) | Withstands inrush and fault currents without degradation, supporting reliable operation in unregulated input or overload conditions. |
| DO-201AD with RθJL = 5°C/W | Enables direct thermal transfer from die to PCB copper or external heatsink via leads, simplifying thermal management vs. SMD alternatives. |
Applications
| DC-DC Converter Output Rectification | Switching Inverter Freewheeling |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar super fast rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH6L04 | VRRM = 400V, IF = 6A, trr = 35ns, VF = 1.35V @ 6A - slightly higher VF, same DO-201AD package | Identical mounting and thermal interface; marginally higher conduction loss at full load | Preferred where STMicroelectronics supply chain alignment is required; verify layout compatibility with identical footprint. |
| ES6D | VRRM = 400V, IF = 6A, trr = 35ns, VF = 1.25V @ 6A - lower VF, same DO-201AD package | Same mechanical fit; offers 50mV lower forward drop, improving light-load efficiency | Consider when optimizing for minimum conduction loss; confirm RoHS/halogen-free compliance matches SF65G requirements. |
Compared with STTH6L04 and ES6D, the SF65G provides identical 400V/6A/35ns performance with a balanced VF of 1.300V - making it a thermally robust choice for industrial SMPS where consistent surge tolerance and JEDEC-compliant lead finish are prioritized.

FAQ
What is the maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM) for SF65G?
The SF65G has a VRRM of 400 V, confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table for the SF65G row. This value defines the highest reverse voltage the device can block repeatedly without breakdown and is validated under standard test conditions per JESD22-A114.
What is the forward voltage (VF) of SF65G at rated current and temperature?
The SF65G exhibits a maximum forward voltage of 1.300 V at 6 A forward current and 25°C junction temperature, as specified in the Electrical Specifications table. This parameter is measured under pulsed conditions (PW = 0.3 ms) to avoid self-heating effects.
Is SF65G qualified to AEC-Q101 standards?
The base SF65G part is not AEC-Q101 qualified; however, the variant SF65GH - explicitly marked with "H" in the ordering code - is AEC-Q101 qualified. This distinction is defined in the Ordering Information section, where "H" denotes qualification status.
What package type does SF65G use, and what are its key mechanical properties?
SF65G uses the DO-201AD package: axial-leaded, UL 94V-0 molded compound, pure tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002, and cathode polarity marked by a band. Its weight is approximately 1.20 g, and it meets JESD201 Class 2 whisker resistance.
What is the reverse recovery time (trr) specification for SF65G, and under what test conditions?
The SF65G has a maximum reverse recovery time of 35 ns, measured under the conditions IF = 0.5 A, IR = 1.0 A, and Irr = 0.25 A, as stated in the Electrical Specifications table. This value reflects performance at room temperature and is critical for high-frequency switching efficiency.
