Product details
Overview
SFAS802GH from Taiwan Semiconductor is an AEC-Q101-qualified super fast surface-mount rectifier in TO-263AB (D2PAK) package, rated for 100 V repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM), 8 A average forward current (IF), and 125 A non-repetitive surge current (IFSM). It delivers low forward voltage (0.95 V at 8 A, 25°C) and ultra-fast reverse recovery (35 ns), making it suitable for automotive DC-DC converters and freewheeling circuits.
For engineers reviewing the SFAS802GH datasheet, SFAS802GH pinout, SFAS802GH application, or SFAS802GH equivalent, key selection criteria include its AEC-Q101 qualification, 100 V VRRM, 0.95 V VF at full load, 35 ns trr, and TO-263AB thermal performance (RθJC = 2.2°C/W).
Technical Context
The SFAS802GH uses a glass-passivated silicon junction to achieve high reliability under automotive thermal cycling and humidity stress. Its single-die configuration and TO-263AB package support high-power density mounting with low thermal resistance to heatsink.
Designed for high-efficiency switching applications, it combines low conduction loss (VF = 0.95 V) and minimal switching loss (trr = 35 ns, CJ = 80 pF), enabling operation in 100 kHz–500 kHz DC-DC topologies without excessive snubber losses.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 100 V - Maximum blocking voltage in reverse bias; defines usable input range in 12 V/24 V automotive DC-DC stages |
| IF | 8 A continuous - Sustains full-load current at TC ≤ 115°C without derating; supports compact heatsink designs |
| VF | 0.95 V @ 8 A, 25°C - Reduces conduction loss to ~7.6 W per device; critical for thermal management in sealed enclosures |
| trr | 35 ns - Limits reverse recovery charge (Qrr ≈ 17.5 nC), minimizing EMI and diode-induced switching loss |
| RθJC | 2.2°C/W - Enables direct heatsink mounting; allows 110°C junction rise with only 242 W/m² case-to-heatsink interface power density |
| IFSM | 125 A @ 8.3 ms - Withstands cold-crank surges and load-dump transients common in 12 V vehicle electrical systems |
| Junction Temp | -55°C to +150°C - Fully operational across automotive ambient (-40°C to +125°C) with 25°C safety margin |
Pinout & Package
TO-263AB (D2PAK) package with three terminals: Anode (pin 1), Cathode (pin 2), and exposed thermal pad (pin 3, electrically connected to cathode). Matte tin-plated leads meet J-STD-002 solderability; polarity marked on top surface.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Input terminal for forward conduction path | Connects to switched node or inductive source; must withstand full IF and IFSM current density |
| Cathode | Output terminal for forward conduction path | Electrically tied to thermal pad; requires low-inductance PCB copper pour for EMI control and thermal dissipation |
| Thermal Pad | Heatsink interface and cathode extension | Provides primary thermal path to PCB; minimum 200 mm² copper area recommended for RθJA ≤ 40°C/W |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q101 qualified | Validated for automotive powertrain and body electronics per stress test requirements (HTOL, TC, HAST, UHST) |
| Glass-passivated junction | Eliminates moisture ingress risk at chip edges; extends lifetime under 85°C/85% RH bias conditions |
| Low VF (0.95 V) | Reduces power loss by ≥15% vs. standard fast rectifiers at 8 A, directly lowering system thermal load |
| 35 ns trr | Enables higher-frequency operation without added snubber losses; compatible with synchronous rectification timing windows |
| Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 | Zero bake requirement before reflow; supports standard SMT assembly without dry-pack handling |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar super fast rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vishay VS-8EWH10FN-M3 | Same VRRM (100 V), IF (8 A), but higher VF (1.15 V) and slower trr (50 ns); TO-263AB package | Higher conduction loss increases thermal load in sealed enclosures; less suitable for >200 kHz operation | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs efficiency and EMI targets |
| ON Semiconductor MUR8100CT | Dual common-cathode die in TO-220AC; VRRM = 100 V, IF = 8 A per diode, VF = 1.25 V, trr = 75 ns | Requires dual-layout routing; larger footprint and higher RθJA; not AEC-Q101 qualified | Select only for non-automotive industrial use where qualification is not required |
Compared with VS-8EWH10FN-M3 and MUR8100CT, the SFAS802GH provides superior efficiency (0.95 V vs. ≥1.15 V), faster switching (35 ns vs. ≥50 ns), and automotive qualification-critical for thermally constrained, high-reliability vehicle subsystems.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for SFAS802GH?
The SFAS802GH has a maximum junction temperature (TJ) of +150°C, verified per AEC-Q101 stress testing. This rating allows operation in under-hood environments up to +125°C ambient with appropriate thermal design. Derating begins above TC = 115°C per the forward current derating curve in the official datasheet. The SFAS802GH maintains full 8 A IF capability below this threshold.
Is SFAS802GH pin-compatible with other devices in the SFAS80xGH family?
Yes, all SFAS80xGH devices-including SFAS802GH-share identical TO-263AB (D2PAK) mechanical dimensions, pinout, and thermal pad layout. Voltage ratings differ (50 V to 600 V), but PCB footprint, solder stencil, and assembly process are fully interchangeable. The SFAS802GH marking code "SFAS802G" is laser-etched on the top surface for visual identification.
Does SFAS802GH require special handling for moisture sensitivity?
No. The SFAS802GH is rated Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (MSL-1) per J-STD-020, meaning it can be stored indefinitely at ≤30°C/60% RH and placed directly into reflow without baking. This eliminates dry-pack requirements and simplifies SMT line integration. The SFAS802GH's matte tin-plated leads also comply with J-STD-002 for solderability assurance.
What is the reverse recovery time (trr) test condition for SFAS802GH?
The SFAS802GH reverse recovery time is measured at IF = 0.5 A, IR = 1.0 A, and IRR = 0.25 A, per JEDEC standard test circuit (Fig.6 in the datasheet). The typical trr is 35 ns, with no maximum specified-indicating consistent performance across production lots. This value applies directly to the SFAS802GH and is validated across its full operating temperature range.
Can SFAS802GH be used in non-automotive applications?
Yes, the SFAS802GH is suitable for industrial and consumer power supplies where high efficiency and fast switching are needed. Its 100 V VRRM, 8 A IF, and 35 ns trr make it effective in 48 V telecom rectifiers, server VRMs, and high-brightness LED drivers. While AEC-Q101 qualification adds robustness, the SFAS802GH's core specs remain fully applicable outside automotive contexts.
