Product details
Overview
SK25AHR3G from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 2 A, 50 V Schottky barrier rectifier in DO-214AC (SMA) package, qualified to AEC-Q101, with VF = 0.70 V at 2 A and TJ = 25°C, IR ≤ 0.5 mA at VR = 50 V and TJ = 25°C, and IFSM = 50 A for 8.3 ms surge. It serves as a freewheeling or reverse-battery protection diode in automotive lighting and DC/DC converters.
For engineers reviewing the SK25AHR3G datasheet, SK25AHR3G pinout, SK25AHR3G application, or SK25AHR3G equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, thermal performance (RθJA = 88°C/W), AEC-Q101 qualification status, moisture sensitivity level (J-STD-020 Level 1), and real-world use context for automotive and industrial power conversion designs.
Technical Context
This Schottky rectifier uses a single-die construction with guard ring over-voltage protection and matte tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002 solderability. Its low forward voltage drop enables high efficiency in low-voltage, high-frequency switching applications.
The device operates across a junction temperature range of –55°C to +125°C (rated) or +150°C (with derating), supports 10,000 V/µs dV/dt, and delivers 20 mJ non-repetitive avalanche energy (ERSM) under L = 40 mH conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 50 V - Maximum repetitive reverse voltage; sets safe operating limit in reverse-biased blocking applications |
| IF | 2 A - Continuous average forward current; defines steady-state conduction capability at TA = 25°C |
| VF | 0.70 V @ 2 A, 25°C - Low forward drop reduces conduction loss and improves system efficiency |
| IR | ≤ 0.5 mA @ 50 V, 25°C - Low leakage preserves battery life in reverse-battery protection circuits |
| IFSM | 50 A @ 8.3 ms - Withstands short-duration inrush currents during power-up or fault events |
| RθJA | 88 °C/W - Thermal resistance from junction to ambient; informs heatsinking requirements for 2 A operation |
| TJ max | 125°C (rated), 150°C (derated) - Defines maximum allowable junction temperature for reliability |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Schottky rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SB250-E3/54 (Vishay) | Same 2 A / 50 V rating; VF = 0.72 V @ 2 A; RθJA = 90°C/W; JEDEC DO-214AC package | No AEC-Q101 qualification; rated for commercial/industrial only | Select when automotive qualification is not required and cost sensitivity is higher |
| SS25HE3/57T (Vishay) | 2 A / 50 V; VF = 0.75 V @ 2 A; RθJA = 85°C/W; AEC-Q101 qualified; same DO-214AC footprint | Slightly higher VF increases conduction loss; tighter IR spec (≤ 0.25 mA @ 50 V) | Prefer for ultra-low-leakage needs in battery-critical systems where 0.05 V VF penalty is acceptable |
Compared with SB250-E3/54 and SS25HE3/57T, SK25AHR3G offers balanced trade-offs: AEC-Q101 compliance like SS25HE3/57T but lower VF than both alternatives, making it optimal for thermally constrained automotive power stages requiring robust surge handling and low-loss conduction.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for SK25AHR3G?
The SK25AHR3G has a rated maximum junction temperature of +125°C and can operate up to +150°C with appropriate derating per the forward current derating curve. This specification enables reliable deployment in under-hood automotive environments where ambient temperatures exceed 85°C, provided thermal design accounts for its 88°C/W junction-to-ambient resistance.
Is SK25AHR3G qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, SK25AHR3G is AEC-Q101 qualified, meaning it has passed stress tests including high-temperature reverse bias, temperature cycling, and mechanical shock specific to automotive discrete semiconductors. This qualification confirms suitability for use in automotive lighting, body control modules, and infotainment power supplies where reliability under vibration and thermal cycling is mandatory.
What does the 'R3G' suffix indicate in SK25AHR3G?
The 'R3G' suffix in SK25AHR3G denotes tape-and-reel packaging (R3) and green (halogen-free) compound (G), per Taiwan Semiconductor's ordering nomenclature. It specifies 7,500 units per reel, RoHS-compliant, and J-STD-020 Level 1 moisture sensitivity-enabling direct placement without baking prior to reflow soldering.
How does SK25AHR3G compare to SK24AHR3G in forward voltage?
SK25AHR3G exhibits VF = 0.70 V at 2 A and 25°C, whereas SK24AHR3G (40 V version) has VF = 0.50 V under identical conditions. The higher VF in SK25AHR3G reflects its optimized 50 V VRRM design, trading slight conduction loss for improved reverse blocking margin-critical in 12 V automotive systems subject to load dump transients exceeding 40 V.
Can SK25AHR3G replace SK25AH in existing designs?
Yes, SK25AHR3G is a direct replacement for SK25AH, sharing identical electrical specifications, DO-214AC package dimensions, pinout, and thermal characteristics. The 'R3G' suffix adds tape-and-reel packaging and halogen-free material compliance but does not alter performance-making it fully compatible for new builds and BOM updates requiring RoHS and green manufacturing compliance.
