Product details
Overview
SFF502G from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 5A, 100V super fast rectifier diode in ITO-220AB package, featuring 35ns reverse recovery time, 0.98V forward voltage at 2.5A/25°C, and 70A surge capability - used in DC-DC converters and switching inverters for high-efficiency power conversion.
For engineers reviewing the SFF502G datasheet, SFF502G pinout, SFF502G application, or SFF502G equivalent, key selection criteria include VRRM = 100 V, IF = 5 A, trr = 35 ns, RθJC = 5.5 °C/W, and ITO-220AB thermal/mechanical compatibility with heatsink mounting.
Technical Context
The SFF502G integrates dual die configuration in a single ITO-220AB package, enabling high-current freewheeling paths with low conduction loss. Its super fast recovery (trr ≤ 35 ns) minimizes switching losses in high-frequency SMPS topologies operating up to several hundred kHz.
Thermally optimized with RθJC = 5.5 °C/W and rated for TJ up to +150°C, the device supports continuous operation under elevated ambient conditions when mounted with proper torque (≤0.56 N·m) on heatsinks.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 100 V - maximum repetitive reverse voltage before breakdown; defines safe blocking range in 100V bus applications |
| IF | 5 A - average forward current rating; supports continuous conduction mode in 5A-output DC-DC stages |
| trr | 35 ns - reverse recovery time at IF = 0.5 A, IR = 1.0 A, Irr = 0.25 A; enables efficient operation in ≥200 kHz switching converters |
| VF | 0.98 V @ 2.5 A, 25°C - low forward drop reduces conduction loss and thermal stress in high-duty-cycle designs |
| RθJC | 5.5 °C/W - junction-to-case thermal resistance; allows ~9 W power dissipation with 50°C case-to-ambient rise |
| IFSM | 70 A - non-repetitive surge current (8.3 ms half-sine); withstands startup inrush and transient overloads |
Pinout & Package
Package: ITO-220AB - insulated TO-220 variant with electrically isolated tab, UL 94V-0 molding compound, matte tin-plated leads, and 1.82 g mass. Mounting torque ≤ 0.56 N·m; polarity marked on device body.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (Lead 1) | Forward current entry point | Connected to input/high-side node in freewheeling or output rectification path |
| Cathode (Lead 2) | Forward current exit point | Connected to ground/common return or low-side switch node |
| Tab (Case) | Electrically isolated thermal path | Provides mechanical mounting and heat transfer without electrical connection; requires insulating washer if mounted to grounded heatsink |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Super fast recovery (trr) | 35 ns enables reduced switching loss and EMI in high-frequency SMPS (>200 kHz) |
| Low forward voltage (VF) | 0.98 V @ 2.5 A cuts conduction loss by ~15% vs. standard fast rectifiers at same current |
| Dual-die configuration | Single-package integration supports redundant or parallel paths without layout duplication |
| AEC-Q101 qualified option (SFF502GH) | Validated for automotive-grade reliability including temperature cycling and whisker resistance |
| UL Recognized (E-326243) | Meets safety requirements for end-equipment certification in industrial and consumer power supplies |
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH5L06 | VRRM = 600 V, trr = 35 ns, VF = 1.7 V @ 5 A - higher blocking but higher conduction loss | Used where 600 V isolation is required; less optimal for 100 V bus due to excess VRRM overhead | Select SFF502G when 100 V rating and lowest VF are prioritized in compact 5A designs |
| ON Semi MUR5100 | VRRM = 100 V, trr = 50 ns, VF = 1.15 V @ 5 A - slower recovery and higher VF than SFF502G | Acceptable in lower-frequency (<100 kHz) converters where EMI margin is relaxed | Choose SFF502G for designs demanding <35 ns trr and sub-1.0 V VF at 2.5 A |
Compared with STTH5L06 and MUR5100, the SFF502G delivers the lowest forward voltage (0.98 V) and matched 100 V rating among super fast rectifiers in ITO-220AB, making it optimal for thermally constrained, high-frequency 5A power stages where conduction and switching loss must both be minimized.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for the SFF502G?
The SFF502G has a maximum junction temperature (TJ) rating of +150°C, verified across its full operating range. This allows reliable operation in high-ambient environments such as enclosed industrial power supplies or under-hood automotive modules when properly heatsinked. Derating curves in the official datasheet confirm usable current capacity down to 25°C case temperature at full 5 A rating.
Is the SFF502G pin-compatible with other ITO-220AB rectifiers like the MUR5100?
Yes, the SFF502G uses the standard ITO-220AB footprint and lead configuration - Anode (Lead 1), Cathode (Lead 2), and electrically isolated tab - matching MUR5100, STTH5L06, and similar devices. Mechanical mounting, PCB pad layout, and heatsink interface are identical, enabling direct physical replacement without board rework.
Does the SFF502G meet automotive reliability standards?
The base SFF502G is not AEC-Q101 qualified, but the SFF502GH variant is fully AEC-Q101 certified per Version I2105 documentation. It passes temperature cycling, humidity testing, and whisker resistance per JESD201 Class 2 - making SFF502GH suitable for automotive infotainment, ADAS power rails, and body control modules.
What is the reverse recovery time test condition for the SFF502G?
The specified trr = 35 ns for the SFF502G is measured under standardized conditions: IF = 0.5 A, IR = 1.0 A, reverse recovery current Irr = 0.25 A, and TA = 25°C. This reflects real-world behavior in hard-switched converters and ensures consistent timing predictability during turn-off transitions.
How does the SFF502G's forward voltage compare to similar 100V rectifiers?
At 2.5 A and 25°C, the SFF502G delivers VF = 0.98 V - lower than MUR5100 (1.15 V) and significantly lower than STTH5L06 (1.7 V). This 0.17 V advantage reduces conduction loss by ~180 mW per diode at 2.5 A, directly improving efficiency and easing thermal management in dense power layouts.
