Product details
Overview
SMLWH from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 1000V repetitive peak reverse voltage, 0.8A average forward current standard surface-mount rectifier in SOD-123W package, glass passivated junction, AEC-Q101 qualified, used in automotive snubber networks and DC-DC converter output stages.
For engineers reviewing the SMLWH datasheet, SMLWH pinout, SMLWH application, or SMLWH equivalent, key selection criteria include VRRM = 1000 V, IF = 0.8 A, VF ≤ 1.10 V at 0.8 A / 25°C, TJ max = 150°C, and SOD-123W mechanical compatibility with automated placement.
Technical Context
The SMLWH operates as a single-die, unidirectional silicon rectifier with glass-passivated PN junction, rated for repetitive reverse voltages up to 1000 V and surge currents up to 20 A (8.3 ms half-sine). Its thermal resistance RθJA is 84°C/W on a 5 mm × 5 mm Cu pad PCB.
Electrical behavior is defined by low leakage (IR ≤ 1 µA at 25°C, ≤150 µA at 125°C), junction capacitance CJ = 7 pF at 1 MHz / 4 V, and forward voltage ranging from 0.84 V (typ, 0.8 A, 125°C) to 1.10 V (max, 0.8 A, 25°C).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 1000 V - maximum repetitive reverse blocking voltage; defines safe operating limit in high-voltage clamping or snubber circuits |
| IF | 0.8 A - continuous average forward current; determines steady-state power dissipation capability (PD ≈ 0.88 W at VF = 1.10 V) |
| IFSM | 20 A - non-repetitive surge current rating; supports transient energy absorption in flyback or inductive load switching |
| TJ max | 150°C - maximum junction temperature; enables operation in under-hood automotive environments without derating below 125°C ambient |
| RθJA | 84°C/W - junction-to-ambient thermal resistance on standard test board; informs minimum copper area needed for thermal management |
| CJ | 7 pF - junction capacitance at 1 MHz / 4 V; impacts high-frequency switching noise and EMI in fast-switching converters |
Pinout & Package
Package: SOD-123W - surface-mount plastic case with matte tin-plated leads, UL 94V-0 molding compound, cathode indicated by band, polarity-critical for rectification direction.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |

Applications
| Automotive Snubber Networks | DC-DC Converter Output Rectification |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Suppressing voltage spikes across MOSFETs/IGBTs in automotive motor drivers and LED ballasts. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Passive clamping diode absorbing inductive kickback energy during switch turn-off. Use Value: 1000 V VRRM ensures margin against transients exceeding 600 V bus rails; 20 A IFSM handles repetitive surge events without degradation. | Use Scenario: Secondary-side rectification in isolated 12 V → 5 V/3.3 V buck-derived converters for infotainment systems. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Unidirectional current path converting transformer AC output to regulated DC. Use Value: Low VF (≤1.10 V) minimizes conduction loss at 0.8 A; SOD-123W allows compact layout near controller ICs. |

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Discrete rectifying element replacing larger DO-214AC parts where board space is constrained. Use Value: SOD-123W footprint reduces PCB area by >60% vs. SMA; 0.016 g weight eases vibration-sensitive mounting. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH08L06W | 600 V VRRM, 0.8 A IF, same SOD-123W package, VF = 0.95 V (max @ 0.8 A) | Limited to ≤600 V systems; unsuitable for 1000 V snubbers or load dump protection | Select when 600 V rating suffices and lower VF is prioritized over voltage margin |
| ES1J-M3/84A | 600 V VRRM, 1 A IF, SMA package, VF = 0.95 V (max @ 1 A), no AEC-Q101 | Higher current but larger footprint and no automotive qualification; not drop-in replaceable | Choose for non-automotive 600 V applications needing 1 A capacity and cost-sensitive sourcing |
Compared with STTH08L06W and ES1J-M3/84A, the SMLWH uniquely delivers 1000 V blocking with AEC-Q101 compliance in SOD-123W-enabling direct use in high-reliability automotive snubbers where voltage margin and qualification are non-negotiable.

FAQ
What is the maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage rating for the SMLWH?
The SMLWH has a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM) rating of 1000 V. This value is confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table of the official Taiwan Semiconductor datasheet (Version A2103). The 1000 V rating allows the SMLWH to safely block high-voltage transients in automotive snubber circuits and withstand load dump conditions per ISO 7637-2. It is the highest voltage grade in the SxLWH family.
Is the SMLWH qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, the SMLWH is AEC-Q101 qualified, as explicitly stated in the FEATURES section of the Taiwan Semiconductor documentation. This qualification covers stress testing for temperature cycling, humidity bias, mechanical shock, and other reliability requirements mandated for discrete semiconductors in automotive electronic systems. The SMLWH is intended for use in engine control units, lighting modules, and other under-hood applications where such certification is required.
What package type does the SMLWH use, and what are its key mechanical attributes?
The SMLWH uses the SOD-123W surface-mount package. Key mechanical attributes include matte tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002 solderability, UL 94V-0 flammability-rated molding compound, polarity indicated by a cathode band, and a mass of approximately 0.016 g. The SOD-123W footprint supports automated placement and provides thermal performance with RθJA = 84°C/W on a 5 mm × 5 mm copper pad PCB.
What is the forward voltage drop of the SMLWH at rated current and temperature?
At 0.8 A forward current and 25°C junction temperature, the SMLWH exhibits a maximum forward voltage (VF) of 1.10 V, with a typical value of 0.94 V. At 125°C and 0.8 A, VF drops to a maximum of 1.01 V (typ 0.84 V), reflecting the negative temperature coefficient of silicon diodes. These values are measured under pulsed conditions (PW = 0.3 ms) and define conduction losses in power stage design.
Does the SMLWH have any environmental compliance certifications?
Yes, the SMLWH is RoHS compliant and halogen-free per IEC 61249-2-21. It also meets J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1, meaning it has unlimited floor life and requires no pre-reflow baking. These certifications are documented in the FEATURES section and confirm suitability for environmentally regulated automotive and industrial supply chains.
