Product details
Overview
SK22AHR3G from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 2 A, 20 V Schottky barrier surface-mount rectifier in DO-214AC (SMA) package, qualified to AEC-Q101, with 0.50 V forward voltage at 2 A and 25 °C, 50 A surge current capability, and junction temperature rating up to +125 °C. It serves as a low-loss freewheeling or reverse-battery protection diode in automotive lighting and DC/DC converters.
For engineers reviewing the SK22AHR3G datasheet, SK22AHR3G pinout, SK22AHR3G application, or SK22AHR3G equivalent, key selection criteria include its 20 V repetitive peak reverse voltage, 0.50 V typical VF at rated current, AEC-Q101 qualification, moisture sensitivity level 1, and DO-214AC mechanical compatibility for automated SMT placement.
Technical Context
The SK22AHR3G implements a single-die Schottky structure optimized for low forward voltage drop and fast switching, enabling high-efficiency operation in high-frequency DC/DC topologies. Its guard ring design enhances over-voltage robustness, while the matte tin-plated leads ensure solderability per J-STD-002.
Thermal performance is defined by a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance of 88 °C/W under standard PCB mounting conditions. The device operates across –55 °C to +125 °C junction temperature range and supports non-repetitive surge currents up to 50 A (8.3 ms half-sine).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 20 V - Maximum repetitive reverse blocking voltage; sets upper limit for safe operation in reverse-biased circuits. |
| IF | 2 A - Continuous average forward current rating; defines steady-state power handling capacity. |
| VF @ 2 A, 25 °C | 0.50 V max - Low conduction loss enables >90% efficiency in low-voltage power stages. |
| IFSM | 50 A - Peak non-repetitive surge current; withstands inrush and fault transients without failure. |
| TJ max | +125 °C - Maximum operating junction temperature; supports under-hood automotive environments. |
| RθJA | 88 °C/W - Thermal resistance determines required PCB copper area for thermal management. |
| MSL | Level 1 - No floor life limitation; suitable for standard reflow without dry-pack requirements. |
Pinout & Package
Package: DO-214AC (SMA), surface-mount plastic case with cathode band polarity indicator; dimensions per JEDEC DO-214AC, weight ≈0.070 g.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward current entry point | Connected to lower-potential node (e.g., switch node in buck converter); requires thermal pad connection for heat dissipation. |
| Cathode | Forward current exit / reverse-blocking terminal | Marked by band; ties to higher-potential rail (e.g., input bus); critical for reverse-battery protection orientation. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Validated for automotive-grade reliability including temperature cycling, HTRB, and ESD testing per stress test plan. |
| Guard ring structure | Improves edge termination robustness, raising dV/dt rating to 10,000 V/µs and reducing risk of avalanche-induced failure. |
| Low VF (0.50 V) | Reduces conduction loss by ~30% vs. comparable 20 V Si PN diodes, directly improving system efficiency in 5–12 V rails. |
| Moisture sensitivity level 1 | Eliminates bake requirements prior to reflow, streamlining high-volume SMT assembly without yield impact. |
| Halogen-free & RoHS compliant | Meets EU Directive 2011/65/EU and IPC-1752A reporting standards for green electronics manufacturing. |
Applications
| Automotive LED Lighting | 12 V DC/DC Buck Converter Output Rectification |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Reverse polarity protection in headlamp control modules exposed to battery jump-start events. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Standalone unidirectional blocking element placed between battery input and downstream regulator. Use Value: Withstands 50 A surge and blocks reverse current below 0.5 µA at 12 V, preventing damage during incorrect cable connection. | Use Scenario: Secondary-side rectification in 12 V → 5 V/3.3 V synchronous-buck-derived topology. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Freewheeling path during high-side MOSFET off-time; conducts continuous 2 A load current. Use Value: 0.50 V VF minimizes power loss (≤1 W at full load), reducing heatsink need and improving light-load efficiency. |
| Reverse Battery Protection in Infotainment Systems | Low-Voltage Industrial Sensor Power Supply |
Use Scenario: Input protection for 5 V microcontroller-based audio amplifiers powered from vehicle battery. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Series-connected anode-to-battery, cathode-to-system; blocks reverse current when battery terminals are swapped. Use Value: 20 V VRRM exceeds nominal 12 V system with margin for load dump spikes; <0.5 mA IR at 12 V ensures minimal standby drain. | Use Scenario: Input rectification for 3.3 V isolated DC/DC module powering RS-485 transceivers in factory automation nodes. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: AC-to-DC conversion stage feeding linear regulator; handles 2 A peak transient loads. Use Value: MSL Level 1 and –55 °C to +125 °C operation support unheated industrial enclosures with wide ambient swings. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Schottky rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SB220-TB | Same 20 V VRRM and 2 A IF, but VF = 0.55 V max at 2 A; no AEC-Q101 qualification. | Not approved for automotive use; limited to commercial/industrial environments. | Select SB220-TB only if AEC-Q101 compliance is not required and slightly higher VF is acceptable. |
| SS22 | 20 V VRRM, 2 A IF, VF = 0.52 V max; RoHS-compliant but MSL Level 2a (floor life 1 year). | Requires dry pack and bake before reflow if stored >1 year; unsuitable for long-term inventory without controls. | Choose SS22 only when supply chain logistics allow strict MSL handling and AEC-Q101 is optional. |
Compared with SK22AHR3G, SB220-TB lacks automotive qualification and has higher conduction loss, while SS22 introduces MSL handling complexity-making SK22AHR3G the optimal choice for automotive and high-reliability industrial designs requiring zero reflow risk and guaranteed qualification.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for SK22AHR3G?
The SK22AHR3G has a maximum junction temperature (TJ max) of +125 °C, validated per its AEC-Q101 qualification. This rating allows reliable operation in under-hood automotive environments and industrial enclosures without active cooling, provided thermal design meets the 88 °C/W RθJA limit under specified PCB conditions.
Is SK22AHR3G pin-compatible with other DO-214AC Schottky diodes?
Yes, SK22AHR3G uses the standard DO-214AC (SMA) package with anode and cathode terminals in the industry-standard configuration. Its physical footprint and solder pad layout match all JEDEC-compliant DO-214AC devices, enabling direct PCB replacement where electrical parameters align.
Does SK22AHR3G meet automotive reliability standards?
Yes, SK22AHR3G is fully AEC-Q101 qualified, having passed stress tests including high-temperature reverse bias (HTRB), temperature cycling, and electrostatic discharge (ESD) per the AEC-Q101-004 and -005 standards. This certification confirms suitability for automotive powertrain, body, and infotainment systems.
What is the forward voltage specification for SK22AHR3G at 2 A and 100 °C?
The SK22AHR3G datasheet does not specify VF at 100 °C and 2 A. However, based on typical Schottky behavior and curve data in Figure 4, VF increases approximately 0.05–0.08 V above the 25 °C value (0.50 V), yielding an estimated VF of 0.55–0.58 V at 100 °C and 2 A.
How is polarity indicated on the SK22AHR3G package?
Polarity on the SK22AHR3G is indicated by a visible cathode band printed on the molded plastic body of the DO-214AC (SMA) package. The banded end corresponds to the cathode terminal, and the opposite end is the anode-consistent with JEDEC DO-214AC mechanical drawing and marking diagram in the SK22AH–SK215AH datasheet.
