Product details
Overview
SFAS806GH from Taiwan Semiconductor is an AEC-Q101-qualified super fast surface-mount rectifier in TO-263AB (D2PAK) package, rated for 400 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 drop (1.30 V at 8 A, 25°C) and ultra-fast reverse recovery (35 ns), making it suitable for automotive DC-DC converters and snubber circuits.
For engineers reviewing the SFAS806GH datasheet, SFAS806GH pinout, SFAS806GH application, or SFAS806GH equivalent, key selection criteria include its 400 V VRRM, 1.30 V VF at full load, 35 ns trr, TO-263AB thermal resistance (2.2 °C/W), and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive reliability.
Technical Context
The SFAS806GH employs a single-die, glass-passivated silicon junction optimized for high-speed switching and low conduction loss. Its 400 V VRRM and 35 ns reverse recovery time enable efficient operation in high-frequency flyback and forward converter topologies.
Thermally, it features a low junction-to-case resistance of 2.2 °C/W and operates across –55°C to +150°C junction temperature range. Its matte tin-plated leads meet J-STD-002 solderability and JESD201 Class 2 whisker resistance requirements.

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-8EWH04FN-M3 | 400 V VRRM, 8 A IF, 1.25 V VF @ 8 A, 30 ns trr, TO-252AA (DPAK) | Smaller DPAK package; lower thermal resistance not achievable without external heatsink | Preferred where board space is constrained but thermal budget allows DPAK mounting |
| ON Semiconductor MUR840G | 400 V VRRM, 8 A IF, 1.35 V VF @ 8 A, 60 ns trr, TO-220AC | Through-hole TO-220; slower recovery increases switching loss in high-frequency designs | Acceptable for <100 kHz supplies where layout simplicity outweighs efficiency loss |
Compared with VS-8EWH04FN-M3 and MUR840G, the SFAS806GH offers superior thermal performance via TO-263AB (2.2 °C/W vs. ~3.5 °C/W for DPAK and ~2.8 °C/W for TO-220), tighter trr control than MUR840G, and AEC-Q101 validation not present in either alternative.

FAQ
What is the maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM) for SFAS806GH?
The SFAS806GH has a VRRM rating of 400 V, as confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table on page 2 of the official TSC datasheet (Version A2103). This value is specific to SFAS806GH and distinguishes it from other members of the SFAS801GH–SFAS808GH family, which span 50 V to 600 V.
Is SFAS806GH qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, SFAS806GH is explicitly AEC-Q101 qualified per the Features section of the TSC datasheet. This qualification covers stress tests including high-temperature reverse bias (HTRB), temperature cycling, and electrostatic discharge (ESD), confirming suitability for under-hood and safety-critical automotive subsystems.
What is the forward voltage (VF) of SFAS806GH at rated current?
The SFAS806GH exhibits a maximum forward voltage of 1.30 V at 8 A forward current and 25°C junction temperature, as specified in the Electrical Specifications table. This value is measured under pulsed conditions (PW = 0.3 ms) and reflects typical conduction loss behavior in real-world switching applications.
Does SFAS806GH have a defined reverse recovery time (trr)?
Yes, the SFAS806GH has a maximum reverse recovery time of 35 ns, tested at IF = 0.5 A, IR = 1.0 A, and Irr = 0.25 A. This parameter is shared across SFAS805GH–SFAS808GH and is critical for minimizing switching loss and EMI in high-frequency power converters.
What package type does SFAS806GH use, and how is polarity marked?
SFAS806GH uses the TO-263AB (D2PAK) surface-mount package. Polarity is marked on the device body: the cathode is the exposed metal tab (case), and the anode is lead 1. The marking code "SFAS806G" appears on the top surface, with "G" indicating green molding compound.
