Product details
Overview
SF802G from Taiwan Semiconductor is an 8A, 100V super fast rectifier diode in TO-220AB package, featuring 35ns reverse recovery time, 0.975V forward voltage at 4A/25°C, and 125A surge current capability. It serves as a freewheeling or output rectifier in high-frequency switching power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the SF802G datasheet, SF802G pinout, SF802G application, or SF802G equivalent, key selection criteria include VRRM = 100 V, IF = 8 A, trr = 35 ns, RθJC = 3 °C/W, and TO-220AB thermal/mechanical compatibility with heatsink mounting.
Technical Context
The SF802G integrates dual die configuration in a single TO-220AB package, enabling high-current handling while maintaining low conduction loss. Its super fast recovery (trr ≤ 35 ns) and low VF (0.975 V @ 4 A, 25°C) reduce switching losses in DC–DC converters operating above 50 kHz.
Thermally, it delivers RθJC = 3 °C/W and supports continuous operation up to TJ = 150°C. The device meets JESD201 Class 2 whisker resistance and uses matte tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002 solderability standards.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar super fast rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH8L06D (STMicroelectronics) | VRRM = 600 V, trr = 30 ns, VF = 1.15 V @ 8 A - Higher voltage rating, faster recovery, but higher VF | Preferred in 400–600 V PFC stages; less optimal for 100 V output rectification due to excess voltage margin and higher conduction loss | Select when >300 V blocking or <30 ns trr is required; verify thermal fit for same IF in TO-220AC package |
| VS-8EWH06FN-M3 (Vishay) | VRRM = 600 V, trr = 32 ns, VF = 1.05 V @ 8 A - Similar speed, slightly higher VF, AEC-Q101 qualified as standard | Better suited for automotive under-hood DC–DC where AEC-Q101 compliance is mandatory; not cost-optimized for industrial 100 V systems | Choose for automotive-grade deployments requiring zero additional qualification; otherwise, SF802G offers lower VF and cost advantage in non-automotive use |
Compared with STTH8L06D and VS-8EWH06FN-M3, the SF802G provides the lowest forward voltage (0.975 V) at its rated 100 V VRRM, delivering superior conduction efficiency in 100 V bus applications-without over-specifying voltage rating or paying premium for automotive qualification.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for the SF802G?
The SF802G has a maximum junction temperature (TJ) of +150°C, verified per absolute maximum ratings in the official Taiwan Semiconductor datasheet Version I2104. This rating enables reliable operation in enclosed industrial power supplies with ambient temperatures up to 85°C when properly heatsinked. Derating curves confirm 8 A continuous current is sustainable at case temperatures ≤100°C.
Is the SF802G pin-compatible with other devices in the SF801G–SF808G series?
Yes, all SF801G–SF808G devices share identical TO-220AB package dimensions, pinout, and terminal assignments-including center-tab cathode, left-anode, right-cathode configuration. The SF802G maintains full mechanical and thermal compatibility across the series, allowing voltage-tier upgrades (e.g., SF802G → SF804G) without PCB changes.
Does the SF802G meet automotive qualification standards?
The base SF802G is not AEC-Q101 qualified; however, the variant SF802GH is explicitly qualified to AEC-Q101. Per Taiwan Semiconductor's ordering information, only parts suffixed with "H" (e.g., SF802GH) undergo automotive stress testing including temperature cycling, HTRB, and ESD. Standard SF802G is intended for industrial and commercial applications.
What is the reverse recovery time (trr) test condition for the SF802G?
The SF802G reverse recovery time is specified as trr ≤ 35 ns under conditions: IF = 0.5 A, IR = 1.0 A, and Irr = 0.25 A, per the Electrical Specifications table in the I2104 datasheet. This standardized test reflects real-world switching behavior in hard-commutated converters and validates suitability for 100–500 kHz operation.
How does the dual-die structure of the SF802G impact thermal performance?
The SF802G's dual-die construction distributes current and heat across two silicon dies within one TO-220AB package, maintaining RθJC = 3 °C/W-identical to single-die equivalents. This architecture improves current sharing reliability and reduces localized hot-spot risk without compromising thermal resistance, making it especially valuable in high-duty-cycle freewheeling applications.
