Product details
Overview
SK85CHM6G from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 50V, 8A surface-mount Schottky barrier rectifier in DO-214AB (SMC) package, featuring 0.75V forward voltage at 8A/25°C, 150A surge capability, and 10,000 V/µs dV/dt rating-used in high-efficiency AC/DC adapters and DC-DC converters.
For engineers reviewing the SK85CHM6G datasheet, SK85CHM6G pinout, SK85CHM6G application, or SK85CHM6G equivalent, key selection criteria include repetitive peak reverse voltage (50V), thermal resistance (20°C/W), junction temperature range (–55°C to +150°C), moisture sensitivity level (J-STD-020 Level 1), and RoHS/halogen-free compliance.
Technical Context
This Schottky rectifier employs a single-die construction with guard ring overvoltage protection and matte tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002 solderability. Its low VF and high IFSM support high-frequency switching topologies where conduction loss minimization is critical.
Thermal performance is defined by a junction-to-ambient RθJA of 20°C/W under standard PCB mounting conditions. Reverse leakage remains ≤10 mA at 100°C and rated VR, enabling stable operation in thermally constrained power stages.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 50 V - Maximum non-repetitive reverse blocking voltage; defines safe operating limit in flyback or boost diode positions |
| IF | 8 A - Continuous average forward current; determines heatsink sizing and trace width in 200–500 kHz SMPS designs |
| VF @ 8A, 25°C | 0.75 V - Forward voltage drop directly impacts conduction loss (Pcond ≈ 6 W at full load) |
| IFSM | 150 A - Peak non-repetitive surge current handling; supports cold-start inrush in offline adapters |
| dV/dt | 10,000 V/µs - Critical rate-of-rise immunity prevents false turn-on in high-dV/dt gate-drive or snubber circuits |
| TJ max | +150 °C - Maximum junction temperature; enables operation in sealed enclosures without active cooling |
| RθJA | 20 °C/W - Thermal resistance from junction to ambient on standard 1-in² copper pad; used for thermal margin calculation |

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-loss freewheeling path in synchronous buck or half-bridge LLC secondary. Use Value: 20°C/W RθJA allows operation at full load with ≤45°C case rise on 1-in² copper, eliminating need for thermal vias. | Use Scenario: Input rectification in 24 V/48 V industrial SMPS with wide ambient range (–40°C to +85°C). IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary-side clamp or auxiliary supply rectifier in multi-rail power distribution units. Use Value: –55°C to +150°C TJ range ensures functionality across extended temperature profiles without derating. |
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-85WQ05FN-M3/45 | Same 50 V VRRM, 8 A IF, but TO-277 package (lower RθJA = 15°C/W); VF = 0.72 V @ 8A | Requires different footprint and stencil; better thermal performance in space-constrained layouts | Select when board-level thermal management is prioritized over footprint compatibility |
| ON Semiconductor SB850 | 50 V VRRM, 8 A IF, DO-214AB package, VF = 0.78 V @ 8A, IFSM = 120 A, RθJA = 22°C/W | Lower surge rating and higher thermal resistance; suitable for non-critical surge environments | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs peak surge margin and thermal headroom |
Compared with VS-85WQ05FN-M3/45 and SB850, SK85CHM6G offers balanced surge robustness (150 A), industry-standard DO-214AB footprint, and verified halogen-free compliance-making it optimal for volume production of certified power supplies where layout reuse and regulatory alignment are essential.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for SK85CHM6G?
The SK85CHM6G has a maximum junction temperature (TJ) of +150°C, validated per absolute maximum ratings in the official TSC datasheet. This rating allows uninterrupted operation in sealed enclosures or high-ambient environments up to +85°C case temperature when properly mounted on ≥1-in² copper. The SK85CHM6G maintains stable reverse leakage (<10 mA) at this limit, supporting long-term reliability in industrial power supplies.
Does SK85CHM6G meet RoHS and halogen-free requirements?
Yes, SK85CHM6G is RoHS compliant and halogen-free per IEC 61249-2-21, as confirmed in the TSC product documentation. The molding compound contains no brominated flame retardants or chlorine-based additives, and lead content is below 1000 ppm. These certifications are verified for all production lots and support compliance in EU CE-marked and Japan J-Moss–regulated end equipment.
What is the forward voltage of SK85CHM6G at 8A and 100°C junction temperature?
The forward voltage of SK85CHM6G is not specified at 100°C in the official TSC datasheet. At 25°C and 8A, VF is 0.75 V (max). While typical VF decreases slightly with rising temperature in Schottky devices, the datasheet only guarantees VF ≤ 0.75 V at 25°C and does not provide a derated value at 100°C. Designers should use the 25°C value with appropriate thermal margin or consult TSC's application engineering for characterization data.
Is SK85CHM6G pin-compatible with other SK8xC family members?
Yes, SK85CHM6G shares identical DO-214AB (SMC) package dimensions, anode/cathode terminal layout, and polarity marking (cathode band) with all SK8xC variants (SK82C–SK810C). This enables direct substitution within the same voltage grade group-e.g., SK84C (40V) or SK86C (60V)-provided the VRRM requirement is met. No PCB redesign is needed when swapping within the SK8xC family.
What is the moisture sensitivity level (MSL) and reflow profile guidance for SK85CHM6G?
SK85CHM6G is rated MSL Level 1 per J-STD-020, meaning it has unlimited floor life and requires no baking prior to reflow. It is qualified for standard Pb-free reflow profiles with peak temperature ≤260°C and time above 217°C of 60–150 seconds. The matte tin-plated leads ensure solderability per J-STD-002, and the UL 94V-0 molding compound withstands repeated thermal cycles without delamination.
