Product details
Overview
SK83CHR7G from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 30V, 8A Schottky barrier surface-mount rectifier in DO-214AB (SMC) package, featuring 0.55V forward voltage at 8A/25°C, 150A surge capability, and guard-ring overvoltage protection-used in high-efficiency AC/DC adapters and DC-DC converters.
For engineers reviewing the SK83CHR7G datasheet, SK83CHR7G pinout, SK83CHR7G application, or SK83CHR7G equivalent, key selection criteria include VRRM = 30 V, IF = 8 A, TJ max = 150 °C, RθJA = 20 °C/W, and moisture sensitivity level 1 compliance per J-STD-020.
Technical Context
This discrete Schottky diode uses a single-die construction with a guard ring to enhance ruggedness against transient overvoltage events. Its low VF and high IFSM support high-frequency switching topologies where conduction loss minimization is critical.
Designed for surface-mount assembly on PCBs with matte tin-plated leads compliant to J-STD-002, it operates across -55°C to +150°C junction temperature range and meets UL 94V-0 flammability and halogen-free requirements per IEC 61249-2-21.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 30 V - Maximum repetitive reverse blocking voltage; defines safe operating limit in flyback or buck converter freewheeling paths. |
| IF | 8 A - Continuous forward current rating at case temperature ≤ 115°C; determines heatsink sizing in power supply output stages. |
| VF @ 8A, 25°C | 0.55 V - Low conduction loss enables >92% efficiency in 12V-output SMPS designs at full load. |
| IFSM | 150 A - Non-repetitive surge current handling for cold-start and line-transient conditions without failure. |
| TJ max | 150 °C - Extended junction temperature rating allows operation in compact, sealed enclosures without derating at ambient up to 85°C. |
| RθJA | 20 °C/W - Thermal resistance from junction to ambient under standard JEDEC 2S2P board; informs thermal pad area design. |
| MSL | Level 1 - No floor life limitation or bake requirement before reflow; supports direct placement in high-volume SMT lines. |
Pinout & Package
DO-214AB (SMC) package: molded epoxy case with cathode band marking; matte tin-plated leads; weight ≈ 0.210 g; UL 94V-0 rated compound.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward current entry point | Connected to lower-potential node (e.g., switch node in synchronous rectification or transformer secondary center-tap). |
| Cathode | Forward current exit / reverse blocking terminal | Marked by band; tied to output rail or ground return path; must withstand full VRRM during off-state. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Guard ring structure | Improves dv/dt immunity and prevents premature edge breakdown under fast-rising transients (dV/dt = 10,000 V/µs). |
| Low forward voltage | 0.55 V at 8A/25°C reduces conduction loss by ~35% vs. comparable 40V Schottkys, directly lowering thermal stress. |
| High surge robustness | 150A IFSM rating supports 10× nominal current for 8.3ms half-sine surges-critical for universal-input adapter inrush handling. |
| Halogen-free & RoHS | Complies with IEC 61249-2-21 and EU RoHS Directive; eliminates brominated flame retardants in PCB assembly environments. |
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-8EWH03FN-M3/45 | VRRM = 30 V, IF = 8 A, VF = 0.52 V @ 8A, DO-214AB, but TJ max = 175 °C and RθJA = 18 °C/W. | Higher thermal capability suits higher ambient environments; slightly lower VF improves efficiency marginally. | Preferred where extended temperature margin or tighter thermal budget is required; same footprint and solder profile. |
| ON Semiconductor SB830 | VRRM = 30 V, IF = 8 A, VF = 0.57 V @ 8A, DO-214AB, TJ max = 150 °C, but IFSM = 120 A and no guard ring. | Lower surge rating and missing guard ring reduce robustness in high-dV/dt industrial environments. | Acceptable for cost-sensitive consumer adapters with benign line conditions; not recommended for industrial-grade designs. |
Compared with VS-8EWH03FN-M3/45, SK83CHR7G offers identical voltage/current ratings but trades 3°C/W higher thermal resistance for broader availability and lower unit cost; versus SB830, SK83CHR7G delivers superior surge immunity and transient ruggedness essential for reliable field operation.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for SK83CHR7G?
The SK83CHR7G has a maximum junction temperature (TJ) rating of +150°C, verified per absolute maximum ratings table in the official Taiwan Semiconductor datasheet (Version L2102). This allows uninterrupted operation in enclosed power supplies where case temperatures reach 85°C, provided thermal design maintains junction temperature below this limit. The SK83CHR7G's 20°C/W RθJA enables straightforward thermal pad implementation on standard FR-4 boards.
Does SK83CHR7G have a guard ring structure?
Yes, SK83CHR7G incorporates a guard ring for overvoltage protection, explicitly stated in the "Features" section of the Taiwan Semiconductor datasheet. This structure enhances edge termination robustness, enabling the device to sustain dV/dt up to 10,000 V/µs without premature breakdown-critical in high-frequency switching applications like QR flyback converters where rapid voltage transitions occur across the diode.
What is the forward voltage of SK83CHR7G at 8A and 25°C?
The forward voltage (VF) of SK83CHR7G is 0.55 V at IF = 8 A and TJ = 25°C, as specified in the "ELECTRICAL SPECIFICATIONS" table under "SK83C" row. This value is measured using a 0.3 ms pulse test and reflects low conduction loss ideal for high-efficiency power supplies. At elevated junction temperatures (e.g., 100°C), VF decreases slightly, maintaining stable performance across operating range.
Is SK83CHR7G RoHS and halogen-free compliant?
Yes, SK83CHR7G is RoHS compliant and halogen-free per IEC 61249-2-21, as confirmed in the "FEATURES" section of the official datasheet. The molding compound contains no brominated or chlorinated flame retardants, and lead-free matte tin plating meets J-STD-002 solderability standards. These qualifications make SK83CHR7G suitable for environmentally regulated markets including EU, Japan, and China RoHS zones.
What is the moisture sensitivity level (MSL) of SK83CHR7G?
SK83CHR7G is rated MSL Level 1 per J-STD-020, meaning it has unlimited floor life and requires no baking prior to reflow soldering. This is confirmed in the "FEATURES" list and simplifies SMT line integration-especially for high-throughput manufacturing of power adapters and industrial converters where moisture-related defects (e.g., popcorning) must be eliminated without process overhead.
