Product details
Overview
SR520H from Taiwan Semiconductor is an AEC-Q101-qualified 5 A, 200 V Schottky barrier rectifier in DO-201AD package, featuring 1.05 V max forward voltage at 5 A and 1 mA max reverse leakage at 125 °C, optimized for high-efficiency DC/DC converters in automotive power systems.
For engineers reviewing the SR520H datasheet, SR520H pinout, SR520H application, or SR520H equivalent, key selection criteria include its 200 V repetitive peak reverse voltage, 120 A surge capability, junction-to-case thermal resistance of 6 °C/W, AEC-Q101 qualification, and DO-201AD mechanical compatibility with legacy through-hole layouts.
Technical Context
The SR520H implements a single-die Schottky structure with guard ring overvoltage protection, enabling stable operation up to 200 V reverse bias while maintaining low conduction loss. Its 1.05 V forward voltage at 5 A and 1 mA reverse current at 125 °C reflect optimized metal-semiconductor interface design for high-temperature switching applications.
Thermally, it delivers 6 °C/W junction-to-case resistance and 35 °C/W junction-to-ambient resistance under standard mounting conditions, supporting continuous 5 A operation within a -55 °C to +150 °C junction temperature range without derating below 100 °C ambient.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 200 V - Maximum repetitive reverse blocking voltage; defines safe operating limit in DC/DC flyback or buck output stages |
| IF | 5 A - Continuous average forward current; supports sustained power delivery in 12–48 V industrial adapters |
| VF (max) | 1.05 V @ 5 A, 25 °C - Low conduction loss enables >92% efficiency in 12 V → 5 V synchronous rectifier replacements |
| IR (max) | 1 mA @ 200 V, 125 °C - Minimal leakage ensures stable hold-up during thermal stress in automotive under-hood environments |
| IFSM | 120 A - Peak non-repetitive surge rating; withstands inrush and fault transients in SMPS startup and short-circuit events |
| TJ max | +150 °C - Extended junction temperature rating allows operation in sealed enclosures without forced cooling |
| RθJC | 6 °C/W - Enables direct heatsink mounting for thermal management in space-constrained board designs |
Pinout & Package
Package: DO-201AD - Axial leaded, epoxy-molded case meeting UL 94V-0 flammability rating; cathode indicated by band; pure tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002 solderability and JESD 201 Class 2 whisker requirements.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (Lead 1) | Forward current entry point | Connected to input/high-side node in buck or flyback secondary; requires PCB copper area ≥ 100 mm² for thermal relief |
| Cathode (Lead 2, banded) | Forward current exit / reverse blocking terminal | Connected to output/ground return path; polarity marking prevents misassembly in automated insertion |
Key Features

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-50WQ03FN-M3/45 | 30 V VRRM, 5 A, TO-220AC package, no AEC-Q101 qualification | Limited to ≤30 V systems; unsuitable for 200 V bus monitoring or 48 V telecom outputs | Select only for cost-sensitive 12–24 V consumer adapters where automotive qualification is unnecessary |
| ON Semiconductor SB5200-E3/54 | 200 V VRRM, 5 A, DO-201AD, but 1.15 V VF max and no AEC-Q101 certification | Higher conduction loss increases thermal stress in sealed automotive enclosures above 85 °C ambient | Acceptable for industrial SMPS where AEC-Q101 is not mandated and 0.1 V higher VF is tolerable |
Compared with VS-50WQ03FN-M3/45 and SB5200-E3/54, the SR520H uniquely combines 200 V rating, AEC-Q101 qualification, and 1.05 V forward voltage in DO-201AD-enabling drop-in replacement in automotive-grade 48 V systems without layout change or thermal redesign.

FAQ
What does the 'H' suffix indicate in SR520H?
The 'H' suffix in SR520H denotes AEC-Q101 qualification, confirming that the SR520H has undergone rigorous stress testing-including temperature cycling, highly accelerated life testing, and unbiased high humidity operating life-for use in automotive power electronics. This distinguishes SR520H from non-H variants like SR520, which lack automotive reliability validation.
Is SR520H compatible with standard DO-201AD footprints?
Yes, SR520H uses the industry-standard DO-201AD package with axial leads and identical mechanical dimensions to legacy rectifiers. Its cathode band marking, 1.10 g weight, and UL 94V-0 molding compound ensure direct mechanical and solder-process compatibility with existing through-hole assembly lines and reflow profiles specified in J-STD-002.
What is the maximum junction temperature for continuous operation of SR520H?
The SR520H supports continuous operation up to +150 °C junction temperature, verified per its absolute maximum ratings table. At this limit, reverse leakage remains ≤1 mA at 200 V, and forward voltage increases predictably-enabling reliable use in sealed automotive junction boxes where ambient temperatures reach +105 °C and PCB self-heating adds up to +45 °C.
How does SR520H's forward voltage compare to other 200 V Schottky rectifiers?
SR520H specifies 1.05 V maximum forward voltage at 5 A and 25 °C, matching or exceeding performance of competing 200 V Schottkys such as SB5200-E3/54 (1.15 V) and STPS5L200 (1.10 V). This lower VF directly reduces conduction loss-by 0.5 W at 5 A-making SR520H especially advantageous in thermally constrained 48 V automotive subsystems.
Does SR520H require derating at elevated ambient temperatures?
Yes, SR520H must be derated above 25 °C ambient per its forward current derating curve: at 75 °C ambient, maximum continuous IF drops to ~3.8 A; at 100 °C, it falls to ~2.5 A. Derating is governed by its 35 °C/W junction-to-ambient thermal resistance and 6 °C/W junction-to-case resistance-so effective heatsinking restores full 5 A capability even at high ambient.
