Product details
Overview
SF803G from Taiwan Semiconductor is an 8A, 150V repetitive peak reverse voltage super fast rectifier diode in TO-220AB package, featuring 35ns reverse recovery time, 0.975V forward voltage at 4A/25°C, and dual-die configuration for high-current freewheeling and DC-DC converter applications.
For engineers reviewing the SF803G datasheet, SF803G pinout, SF803G application, or SF803G equivalent, key selection criteria include VRRM = 150V, IF = 8A, trr = 35ns, RθJC = 3°C/W, and AEC-Q101 qualification availability (SF803GH variant), critical for automotive power supply and industrial switching-mode design validation.
Technical Context
The SF803G employs a super fast recovery epitaxial structure optimized for low conduction loss and minimal switching tail current. Its 150V VRRM, 125A IFSM, and 35ns trr enable efficient operation in high-frequency flyback and forward converters up to several hundred kHz.
Thermally, the TO-220AB package delivers 3°C/W junction-to-case resistance with matte tin-plated leads compliant to J-STD-002. The dual-die configuration supports symmetrical current sharing and enhanced surge robustness without external paralleling.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 150 V - Maximum non-repetitive reverse blocking voltage; defines safe operating range in 12–48V DC-DC output stages |
| IF | 8 A - Continuous average forward current at case temperature ≤75°C; supports 10W–25W power conversion without forced cooling |
| trr | 35 ns - Reverse recovery time under IF = 0.5A, IR = 1.0A, Irr = 0.25A; enables <500 kHz switching with low EMI and diode switching loss |
| VF | 0.975 V @ 4A, 25°C - Low forward voltage drop per die; reduces conduction loss to ~3.9W at 8A full-load in dual-die parallel mode |
| CJ | 70 pF @ 1MHz, 4V - Junction capacitance per diode; limits high-frequency displacement current and ringing in snubberless designs |
| RθJC | 3 °C/W - Thermal resistance from junction to case; allows 42W max power dissipation before reaching 150°C TJ with 25°C heatsink |
Pinout & Package
TO-220AB package: 3-terminal through-hole outline with isolated tab (cathode-connected tab), matte tin-plated leads, UL 94V-0 molding compound, and polarity marked on device body.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Tab (center) | Cathode (electrically connected) | Provides primary thermal path to heatsink; must be electrically isolated unless circuit requires common-cathode configuration |
| Lead 1 (left) | Anode | Input terminal for forward conduction; connects to switching node in freewheeling or output rectification paths |
| Lead 2 (right) | Anode | Second anode terminal for dual-die configuration; enables independent routing or parallel connection with Lead 1 |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Super fast recovery (trr = 35 ns) | Reduces switching losses and EMI in high-frequency SMPS, enabling compact magnetics and smaller output filters |
| Dual-die configuration | Provides redundancy and current-sharing capability; improves reliability over single-die 8A diodes in high-surge environments |
| Low VF (0.975 V @ 4A) | Lowers conduction loss by ≥15% vs. standard fast rectifiers, directly improving efficiency in 12V–48V output rails |
| AEC-Q101 qualification option (SF803GH) | Validates robustness for automotive under-hood applications including engine control and ADAS power supplies |
| RoHS + halogen-free (IEC 61249-2-21) | Meets global environmental compliance requirements for industrial and consumer electronics manufacturing |
Applications
| DC-DC Converters | Switching Inverters |

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 = 600V, IF = 8A, trr = 35ns, TO-220AC package (single anode) | Higher voltage rating but no dual-anode configuration; lower surge rating (IFSM = 100A) | Preferred where higher reverse margin is needed and dual-anode routing is unnecessary |
| VS-8EWH06FN-M3 (Vishay) | VRRM = 600V, IF = 8A, trr = 25ns, TO-220AC, AEC-Q101 qualified | Faster recovery but single-die; lacks dual-anode flexibility and has higher VF (1.15V @ 4A) | Selected when ultra-low trr dominates over conduction loss and layout symmetry |
Compared with STTH8L06D and VS-8EWH06FN-M3, the SF803G offers unique dual-anode terminals and lower VF at 150V rating-ideal for space-constrained, thermally demanding 24–48V freewheeling where layout symmetry and thermal coupling matter.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for the SF803G?
The SF803G has a maximum junction temperature (TJ) of +150°C, verified per absolute maximum ratings in the official Taiwan Semiconductor datasheet Version I2104. This rating applies across the full operating range and supports reliable operation in under-hood automotive and high-ambient industrial environments when mounted to an appropriate heatsink. Derating curves confirm usable current down to −55°C storage temperature.
Does the SF803G have AEC-Q101 qualification?
The base SF803G is not AEC-Q101 qualified; however, the SF803GH variant-identical in electrical and thermal specifications-is explicitly qualified per AEC-Q101. The "H" suffix denotes qualification, and both versions share the same TO-220AB package, marking code, and mechanical data. Designers targeting automotive applications must specify SF803GH to ensure compliance.
How does the dual-die configuration of the SF803G affect PCB layout?
The SF803G's dual-anode configuration (Leads 1 and 2) allows symmetrical current splitting or independent routing to separate power domains. Unlike single-anode TO-220 rectifiers, this eliminates need for external paralleling and reduces loop inductance when both anodes feed adjacent switching nodes. Layout must maintain equal trace length and thermal coupling to avoid current imbalance above 5A.
What is the reverse recovery time test condition for the SF803G?
The SF803G reverse recovery time (trr) of 35ns is measured under standardized conditions: IF = 0.5A, IR = 1.0A, Irr = 0.25A, with specified pulse waveforms per JEDEC guidelines. This value is typical-not guaranteed-and applies at TA = 25°C; actual trr increases slightly at elevated junction temperatures but remains ≤50ns up to TJ = 125°C.
Is the SF803G pin-compatible with other TO-220AB rectifiers?
Yes-the SF803G uses industry-standard TO-220AB mechanical dimensions and lead spacing (1.5mm pitch, 2.54mm row spacing), making it physically compatible with all TO-220AB sockets and footprints. However, its dual-anode pinout differs from conventional single-anode TO-220AB rectifiers (e.g., STTH8L06D), so schematic symbol and netlist assignment must reflect Leads 1 and 2 as independent anodes, not redundant pins.
