Product details
Overview
SR515 A0G from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 5A, 150V Schottky barrier rectifier in DO-201AD package, featuring 1.05V max forward voltage at 5A/25°C, 100µA max reverse leakage at 150V/25°C, and 120A surge capability - deployed in high-efficiency DC/DC converters and industrial power adapters.
For engineers reviewing the SR515 A0G datasheet, SR515 A0G pinout, SR515 A0G application, or SR515 A0G equivalent, key selection criteria include its 150V VRRM, 125°C/150°C junction temperature range, DO-201AD mechanical compatibility, and AEC-Q101 qualification path via SR515H variant.
Technical Context
This discrete Schottky diode uses a single-die construction with guard ring overvoltage protection and pure tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002 solderability. Its 6°C/W junction-to-case thermal resistance supports high-current operation under constrained thermal conditions.
Designed for switching-mode topologies, it delivers low conduction loss (VF ≤ 1.05V) and fast recovery (no stored charge), enabling >90% efficiency in 100–500kHz DC/DC stages where reverse recovery losses must be minimized.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 150 V - maximum repetitive reverse voltage before breakdown; sets upper limit for input/output rail isolation in buck/boost converters |
| IF | 5 A - continuous average forward current; defines steady-state power handling in 12V/24V industrial supplies |
| IFSM | 120 A - non-repetitive surge rating (8.3ms half-sine); withstands inrush and fault currents in adapter front-ends |
| VF @ 5A, 25°C | ≤1.05 V - low forward drop reduces conduction loss to <5.25W at full load, critical for thermal management |
| IR @ 150V, 25°C | ≤100 µA - minimal leakage preserves efficiency in standby mode and high-impedance feedback paths |
| TJ Range | –55°C to +150°C - extended high-temp operation enables use in under-hood automotive modules and sealed industrial enclosures |
| RθJC | 6 °C/W - low thermal resistance allows direct mounting to heatsinks or PCB copper for passive cooling in space-constrained designs |
Pinout & Package
DO-201AD axial-leaded package with cathode band marking; two-terminal device (anode and cathode) in standard JEDEC outline. Leads are pure tin-plated and solderable per J-STD-002.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward current entry point | Connected to lower-potential node (e.g., switch node in synchronous rectification or output rail in flyback) |
| Cathode | Forward current exit / reverse blocking terminal | Marked by band; ties to higher-potential node (e.g., output capacitor positive or VIN in buck converter) |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Guard ring structure | Enhances ruggedness against transient overvoltage events without derating VRRM in real-world line surges |
| RoHS & halogen-free | Complies with IEC 61249-2-21; eliminates brominated flame retardants for safer rework and end-of-life processing |
| JESD 201 Class 2 whisker resistance | Prevents tin whisker growth under thermal cycling, ensuring long-term reliability in automotive and telecom infrastructure |
| UL 94V-0 molding compound | Self-extinguishing encapsulation meets fire-safety requirements for enclosed power supplies and medical peripherals |

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-5EWH015-M3/45 | Same 150V VRRM, 5A IF, but TO-277 surface-mount package; VF = 0.82V typ at 5A | Requires SMT reflow process and PCB layout change; not drop-in for through-hole DO-201AD footprint | Select when board space is constrained and automated assembly is available |
| ON Semiconductor SB5150-E3/54 | 150V VRRM, 5A IF, DO-201AD package, but VF = 0.92V max; IR = 200µA max at 150V/25°C | Higher leakage and slightly lower forward drop; not AEC-Q101 qualified in standard grade | Acceptable for cost-sensitive industrial adapters where 100µA leakage is not critical |
Compared with VS-5EWH015-M3/45 and SB5150-E3/54, SR515 A0G offers the lowest leakage (100µA), verified DO-201AD mechanical fit, and clear AEC-Q101 qualification path - making it optimal for automotive-adjacent and thermally demanding through-hole designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for SR515 A0G?
The SR515 A0G has a maximum junction temperature (TJ) of +150°C, with operational range from –55°C to +150°C. This rating is confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table on page 2 of the J2105 datasheet. The SR515 A0G maintains specified electrical performance within this range, and its 6°C/W RθJC enables effective heat transfer to external thermal mass. Derating curves in Figure 1 show usable current decreases above 100°C ambient.
Is SR515 A0G AEC-Q101 qualified?
No, SR515 A0G is not AEC-Q101 qualified. Per the Ordering Information table (page 3), only variants marked with "H" suffix (e.g., SR515H) are AEC-Q101 qualified. SR515 A0G uses the same die and DO-201AD package but lacks the qualification testing. For automotive applications requiring AEC-Q101, SR515H is the designated qualified version of the SR515 A0G.
What does the "A0G" suffix mean in SR515 A0G?
The "A0G" suffix in SR515 A0G indicates packaging: "A0" denotes ammo box packaging, and "G" signifies halogen-free molding compound per IEC 61249-2-21. This is defined in the Ordering Information section (page 3) of the J2105 datasheet. SR515 A0G contains 500 units per ammo box and is RoHS-compliant, distinguishing it from tape-and-reel versions like SR515 or SR515H.
How does SR515 A0G compare to SR510 A0G in forward voltage?
SR515 A0G has a maximum forward voltage (VF) of 1.05V at 5A/25°C, while SR510 A0G is rated at 0.85V max under identical conditions. This 0.20V difference reflects higher VRRM (150V vs. 100V) and associated trade-offs in Schottky barrier height and series resistance. Both share the same DO-201AD package and thermal specs, but SR515 A0G prioritizes voltage robustness over ultra-low VF.
What is the reverse leakage current specification for SR515 A0G at 125°C?
At 125°C and rated reverse voltage (150V), the SR515 A0G has no maximum specified reverse leakage (IR) in the Electrical Specifications table - only a note indicating "–" (not characterized). However, the datasheet shows a typical curve in Figure 3 where IR ≈ 1 mA at 150V/125°C. For design margin, engineers should reference the 1 mA value at 125°C and confirm thermal derating in actual layout using RθJA = 35°C/W.
