Product details
Overview
SK35BH from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 3A, 50V Schottky barrier rectifier in DO-214AA (SMB) package, qualified to AEC-Q101, with 0.75V max forward voltage at 3A/25°C, 100µA max reverse leakage at 50V/25°C, and 70A surge capability - used in automotive DC/DC converters and reverse battery protection circuits.
For engineers reviewing the SK35BH datasheet, SK35BH pinout, SK35BH application, or SK35BH equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, thermal resistance (RθJL = 23°C/W), junction temperature range (–55°C to +150°C), and AEC-Q101 qualification status for automotive-grade reliability assessment.
Technical Context
The SK35BH implements a single-die Schottky structure optimized for low forward voltage drop and fast switching, enabling high-efficiency operation in 20–200V-rated rectifier families. Its guard ring design provides overvoltage protection, and JESD201 Class 2 whisker resistance ensures long-term solder joint integrity under thermal cycling.
Rated for continuous 3A forward current and 70A non-repetitive surge (8.3ms half-sine), it operates across –55°C to +150°C junction temperature with RθJA = 63°C/W and RθJL = 23°C/W - supporting thermally constrained PCB layouts in automotive lighting and power supply freewheeling applications.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Schottky rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vishay VS-3EYH05-M3/45 | Same 3A/50V rating, but VF = 0.52V typ @ 3A; TO-277 package (smaller footprint than SMB) | Better efficiency at light loads; lower thermal mass limits sustained 3A operation without heatsinking | Prefer when board space is critical and peak current is intermittent |
| ON Semiconductor SB350 | 3A/50V, VF = 0.55V typ @ 3A; DO-214AA package; not AEC-Q101 qualified | Lacks automotive qualification; higher IR (500µA) reduces suitability for battery-sensitive systems | Select only for cost-sensitive industrial or consumer applications without automotive requirements |
Compared with VS-3EYH05-M3/45 and SB350, the SK35BH delivers superior thermal robustness (RθJL = 23°C/W) and automotive qualification, making it the preferred choice for under-hood 12V systems requiring long-term reliability and surge resilience.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for the SK35BH?
The SK35BH has a maximum junction temperature (TJ) rating of +150°C, validated per AEC-Q101 stress testing. This allows reliable operation in under-hood automotive environments where ambient temperatures exceed 105°C. The device maintains specified electrical performance up to this limit, provided thermal design meets RθJL = 23°C/W and RθJA = 63°C/W constraints. Derating curves in the SK35BH datasheet confirm 3A continuous current is sustainable at 150°C junction temperature with appropriate PCB copper area.
Is the SK35BH pin-compatible with other parts in the SK3xBH series?
Yes, all SK3xBH devices - including SK32BH through SK320BH - share identical DO-214AA (SMB) package dimensions, anode/cathode pinout, and thermal pad layout. The SK35BH uses the same physical footprint and solder mask pattern as SK33BH, SK34BH, and SK36BH, enabling voltage-scaling design reuse without PCB revision. However, forward voltage and reverse leakage differ across the series, so electrical validation is required when substituting within the same layout.
Does the SK35BH require a moisture sensitivity bake prior to reflow soldering?
No, the SK35BH is rated at Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (MSL-1) per J-STD-020, meaning it has unlimited floor life and does not require baking before reflow. This simplifies SMT line integration and eliminates risk of popcorning during lead-free reflow profiles. The device's molding compound and leadframe construction meet strict humidity resistance standards, ensuring reliability in high-volume automotive assembly environments.
What is the reverse leakage current specification for the SK35BH at elevated temperature?
At 100°C junction temperature and rated 50V reverse voltage, the SK35BH specifies a maximum reverse leakage current (IR) of 5 mA. At 125°C, leakage rises to ≤2 mA - a value confirmed in the "Electrical Specifications" table of the official SK35BH datasheet. This controlled leakage profile supports stable operation in hot under-hood locations while maintaining acceptable quiescent current in always-on automotive modules.
How does the guard ring feature in the SK35BH improve system-level reliability?
The guard ring in the SK35BH enhances edge termination robustness, suppressing premature avalanche breakdown during voltage transients such as ISO 7637-2 pulse 1 and pulse 4a. This structural feature increases the device's dV/dt rating to 10,000 V/µs and improves immunity to localized electric field crowding. In practice, it extends operational lifetime in automotive power rails exposed to load dump and jump-start conditions - a key differentiator versus non-guard-ring Schottky rectifiers like SB350.
