Product details
Overview
SK39AHR3G from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 3 A, 90 V Schottky barrier rectifier in DO-214AC (SMA) package, featuring low forward voltage (0.85 V at 3 A, 25°C), high surge current capability (70 A), and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive-grade reliability. It serves as a freewheeling or reverse-battery protection diode in DC/DC converters and car lighting systems.
For engineers reviewing the SK39AHR3G datasheet, SK39AHR3G pinout, SK39AHR3G application, or SK39AHR3G equivalent, key selection criteria include its 90 V repetitive peak reverse voltage, 0.85 V forward drop at rated current, 10,000 V/µs dV/dt rating, junction temperature range (–55°C to +150°C), and moisture sensitivity level 1 compliance.
Technical Context
The SK39AHR3G is a single-die, unidirectional Schottky rectifier optimized for high-frequency, low-loss operation in automotive and industrial power conversion. Its guard ring structure provides over-voltage protection, and its matte tin-plated leads ensure reliable solderability per J-STD-002.
Thermally, it delivers RθJL = 25°C/W and RθJA = 66°C/W, enabling stable 3 A continuous conduction at elevated ambient temperatures when properly mounted on PCB copper. Reverse leakage remains ≤100 µA at 25°C and ≤0.5 mA at 125°C under full-rated 90 V reverse bias.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 90 V - Maximum non-repetitive reverse blocking voltage; defines safe operating limit in flyback or clamp circuits |
| IF | 3 A - Continuous forward current rating at TL = 75°C; determines minimum trace width and thermal pad area |
| VF | 0.85 V @ 3 A, 25°C - Low conduction loss enables >92% efficiency in 12 V input DC/DC stages |
| IFSM | 70 A - Peak surge current (8.3 ms half-sine); supports cold-crank and load-dump transient immunity |
| dV/dt | 10,000 V/µs - High critical rate of rise tolerance prevents false turn-on in fast-switching inverters |
| TJ max | +150°C - Enables operation in under-hood automotive environments without derating below 3 A |
| MSL | Level 1 (per J-STD-020) - No floor life limitation; suitable for standard SMT reflow without dry-pack handling |

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-3EYH09-M3/54 | Same 90 V VRRM, 3 A IF, but VF = 0.82 V @ 3 A; slightly lower RθJA (60°C/W) | Identical DO-214AC footprint; tighter VF tolerance (±0.03 V vs. ±0.05 V) | Preferred where <0.05 V VF reduction justifies dual-source qualification |
| ON Semiconductor SB390 | 90 V VRRM, 3 A IF, but VF = 0.88 V @ 3 A; IFSM = 60 A; not AEC-Q101 qualified | DO-214AC compatible; lacks automotive stress validation and MSL1 assurance | Suitable for cost-sensitive industrial DC/DC where AEC-Q101 is not mandated |
Compared with VS-3EYH09-M3/54 and SB390, the SK39AHR3G offers the only combination of AEC-Q101 qualification, 70 A surge rating, and MSL1 handling - making it the default choice for Tier-1 automotive power modules requiring zero rework risk and long-term supply stability.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for SK39AHR3G?
The SK39AHR3G has a maximum junction temperature (TJ) rating of +150°C, verified per absolute maximum ratings table. This allows uninterrupted 3 A operation in under-hood environments up to +105°C ambient when mounted on ≥1 cm² of 2-oz copper with thermal vias. The SK39AHR3G maintains parametric stability across its full –55°C to +150°C junction range.
Is SK39AHR3G suitable for reverse battery protection in 24 V commercial vehicles?
Yes, the SK39AHR3G is suitable for reverse battery protection in 24 V systems. Its 90 V VRRM exceeds ISO 7637-2 Pulse 5a load dump peaks (up to 75 V), and its AEC-Q101 qualification ensures validated performance under vibration, thermal cycling, and humidity stress. The SK39AHR3G's 70 A IFSM also handles cranking surges without degradation.
Does SK39AHR3G have a halogen-free and RoHS-compliant construction?
Yes, the SK39AHR3G uses halogen-free molding compound and meets RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU requirements. This is explicitly stated in the "Features" section of the official datasheet (Version B2304), and the device carries the "G" suffix in its ordering code to denote green compound compliance.
What is the forward voltage of SK39AHR3G at 3 A and 125°C junction temperature?
The forward voltage of SK39AHR3G is not specified at 125°C in the provided datasheet. However, typical VF increases ~2.2 mV/°C above 25°C. Using the 25°C value of 0.85 V and linear extrapolation, VF at 125°C is approximately 1.07 V. For design-critical applications, the SK39AHR3G should be characterized in-system or referenced against Figure 10 (Typical Forward Characteristics) for SK39–SK310AH curves.
How does the guard ring feature in SK39AHR3G improve reliability?
The guard ring in SK39AHR3G enhances edge termination robustness, preventing premature avalanche breakdown at the die periphery during voltage transients. This improves long-term reliability in automotive applications subject to load dump and inductive switching noise. The guard ring directly contributes to the SK39AHR3G's ability to sustain 10,000 V/µs dV/dt without failure - a key differentiator versus non-guarded Schottky rectifiers.
