Product details
Overview
SFT17G from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 1 A, 500 V super fast recovery rectifier diode in TS-1 package, featuring 1.70 V forward voltage at 1 A and 35 ns reverse recovery time, designed for high-efficiency DC-DC converters and switching inverters requiring low conduction loss and fast switching.
For engineers reviewing the SFT17G datasheet, SFT17G pinout, SFT17G application, or SFT17G equivalent, key selection criteria include repetitive peak reverse voltage (500 V), surge current rating (30 A), junction temperature range (–55°C to +150°C), thermal resistance (100°C/W), and AEC-Q101 qualification availability via SFT17GH variant.
Technical Context
The SFT17G employs a single-die silicon planar junction structure optimized for super-fast recovery with controlled minority carrier lifetime. Its 35 ns trr and 10 pF junction capacitance at 4.0 V enable efficient operation in 100 kHz–500 kHz switching topologies.
Rated for 1 A average forward current and 30 A non-repetitive surge (8.3 ms half-sine), it maintains stable reverse leakage (<5 µA at 25°C, <100 µA at 125°C) across its –55°C to +150°C operating junction temperature range.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 500 V - supports DC bus voltages up to 350 VDC in boost/buck converters with 1.4× safety margin |
| IF(AV) | 1 A - continuous output current capability for compact 10–25 W power stages |
| VF @ 1 A, 25°C | 1.70 V - conduction loss of 1.7 W at full load, enabling thermally constrained designs |
| trr | 35 ns - minimizes switching losses and EMI in hard-switched SMPS above 100 kHz |
| RθJA | 100 °C/W - requires ≤ 75°C ambient or minimal copper area for safe 1 A operation without heatsink |
| IFSM | 30 A - withstands inrush and transient overloads typical in automotive cold-crank and industrial startup |
| CJ @ 4 V | 10 pF - reduces capacitive coupling noise in high dv/dt gate-drive or snubber circuits |
Pinout & Package
TS-1 package: molded epoxy case with pure tin-plated leads, cathode indicated by band, UL 94V-0 rated, 0.200 g mass, JESD201 Class 2 whisker compliant.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |

| Cathode | Current exit point during forward conduction; polarity marked by band | Connected to output rail or higher-potential node; defines unidirectional current path and blocking direction |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar super fast rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH1R06U (STMicroelectronics) | Same IF = 1 A, VRRM = 600 V, trr = 35 ns, but VF = 1.75 V @ 1 A; TO-220AC package (larger footprint, better thermal) | Preferred where board space allows and higher thermal margin is needed; not TS-1 drop-in | Select when thermal design requires lower junction temperature or legacy TO-220 layout exists |
| ES1D (ON Semiconductor) | VRRM = 200 V, IF = 1 A, trr = 35 ns, VF = 1.7 V @ 1 A; SMA package; no AEC-Q101 option | Limited to ≤140 VDC systems; unsuitable for 400–500 V bus applications | Choose only for cost-sensitive 24–48 V systems where 500 V standoff is unnecessary |
Compared with STTH1R06U and ES1D, the SFT17G uniquely balances 500 V rating, TS-1 compactness, and AEC-Q101 availability-making it optimal for space-constrained automotive and industrial 12–48 V output converters needing robust 500 V reverse blocking.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for SFT17G?
The SFT17G has a maximum junction temperature (TJ MAX) of +150°C, with an operating range from –55°C to +150°C. This rating enables reliable operation in under-hood automotive environments and enclosed industrial enclosures. Derating curves confirm 1 A average forward current is sustainable up to +75°C ambient when mounted on standard FR-4 PCB with minimal copper; the SFT17G datasheet provides exact derating factors per ambient temperature.
Is SFT17G pin-compatible with other devices in the SFT1xG series?
Yes, all SFT1xG devices-including SFT17G-share identical TS-1 package dimensions, pinout, and thermal pad layout. The only differences are VRRM (500 V for SFT17G), VF (1.70 V), and marking code. This allows direct substitution within the same voltage class during design iteration or BOM optimization without PCB changes.
Does SFT17G meet automotive qualification standards?
The base SFT17G is not AEC-Q101 qualified, but its variant SFT17GH is fully AEC-Q101 qualified and shares identical electrical specifications and TS-1 packaging. SFT17GH is intended for automotive power conversion modules, body electronics, and ADAS subsystems where stress testing per AEC-Q101 is mandatory.
What is the reverse recovery time (trr) test condition for SFT17G?
The SFT17G reverse recovery time is specified as 35 ns maximum under conditions of IF = 0.5 A, IR = 1.0 A, and Irr = 0.25 A, per JEDEC-standard test circuit. This value is measured at TA = 25°C and reflects performance in hard-switched topologies; actual trr increases slightly at elevated junction temperatures but remains ≤45 ns up to TJ = 125°C.
How does the junction capacitance of SFT17G affect high-frequency design?
The SFT17G exhibits 10 pF typical junction capacitance at VR = 4.0 V and 1 MHz, significantly lower than earlier-generation fast rectifiers. This low CJ reduces displacement current during high dv/dt transitions, minimizing EMI generation and gate-drive coupling in adjacent MOSFETs-critical in compact 300–500 kHz flyback or active-clamp forward converters where layout parasitics dominate noise behavior.
