Product details
Overview
SS15HM2G from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 1A, 50V Schottky barrier surface-mount rectifier in DO-214AC (SMA) package, featuring 0.75V forward voltage at 1A/25°C, 40A peak surge current, and 125°C maximum junction temperature. It serves as a low-loss freewheeling or output rectifier in compact DC/DC converters and AC/DC adapters.
For engineers reviewing the SS15HM2G datasheet, SS15HM2G pinout, SS15HM2G application, or SS15HM2G equivalent, key selection criteria include forward voltage drop at operating temperature, reverse leakage at rated VRRM, thermal resistance (RθJL = 28°C/W), and compatibility with automated SMT placement per J-STD-002 solderability standards.
Technical Context
This discrete Schottky diode uses a single-die construction optimized for high-frequency switching applications. Its low forward voltage minimizes conduction loss, while the guard ring structure enhances ruggedness against transient overvoltage events.
The device operates across -55°C to +125°C junction temperature range and meets JESD201 Class 2 whisker resistance and J-STD-020 Level 1 moisture sensitivity requirements. Its DO-214AC package supports high-density PCB layouts with standardized SMA footprint and cathode band polarity marking.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Schottky rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SS15H-E3/5AT (Vishay) | Same VRRM (50V), identical DO-214AC package, but VF = 0.72V @ 1A/25°C and IR = 150µA @ 50V/25°C | Slightly lower leakage supports ultra-low-standby designs; same thermal profile | Select when tighter IR spec is required and Vishay supply chain is preferred |
| SB150-TB (ON Semiconductor) | 50V VRRM, DO-214AC, but VF = 0.82V @ 1A/25°C and RθJA = 95°C/W (vs. 88°C/W for SS15HM2G) | Higher VF increases conduction loss; marginally higher thermal resistance affects board-level derating | Acceptable for cost-sensitive designs where 0.07V VF penalty is tolerable |
Compared with SS15HM2G, SS15H-E3/5AT offers marginally better leakage and forward voltage, while SB150-TB trades higher conduction loss for broader distributor availability-making SS15HM2G optimal for thermally constrained, efficiency-critical adapter designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for SS15HM2G?
The SS15HM2G has a maximum junction temperature (TJ) of +125°C, validated across its full operating current range. This rating applies under steady-state conditions with proper PCB thermal management and must be derated linearly above 25°C ambient per the forward current derating curve in the SS12–SS115 datasheet. Exceeding 125°C risks permanent degradation of the Schottky junction in SS15HM2G.
Does SS15HM2G meet RoHS and halogen-free requirements?
Yes, SS15HM2G is RoHS compliant and halogen-free per Taiwan Semiconductor's R2305 specification. The molding compound satisfies UL 94V-0 flammability rating, and terminals are matte tin plated to meet J-STD-002 solderability standards. These attributes are confirmed in the Mechanical Data and Features sections of the official SS12–SS115 datasheet for SS15HM2G.
What is the forward voltage of SS15HM2G at 1A and 100°C junction temperature?
The forward voltage of SS15HM2G is 0.65V at 1A and 100°C junction temperature, as specified in the Electrical Specifications table of the SS12–SS115 datasheet. This value reflects reduced barrier height at elevated temperature and is critical for thermal stability analysis in high-ambient applications such as enclosed adapters where SS15HM2G operates near its TJ limit.
Is SS15HM2G suitable for automated SMT placement?
Yes, SS15HM2G is explicitly designed for automated placement, as stated in its FEATURES list. Its DO-214AC (SMA) package conforms to JEDEC DO-214 variation AC, features standardized lead geometry, and carries J-STD-020 Level 1 moisture sensitivity-eliminating bake requirements prior to reflow. These characteristics ensure reliable pick-and-place yield for SS15HM2G in high-volume manufacturing.
What is the reverse leakage current of SS15HM2G at rated 50V and 125°C?
At 50V reverse voltage and 125°C junction temperature, the reverse leakage current (IR) of SS15HM2G is not specified in the provided datasheet excerpt; however, for the SS15–SS16 subgroup, leakage is specified as "–" (not characterized) at 125°C. The datasheet confirms IR ≤ 5mA at 100°C and ≤ 2mA at 150°C for SS15–SS16, indicating SS15HM2G exhibits moderate thermal drift typical of Schottky diodes-but precise 125°C data requires consultation of the full SS12–SS115 R2305 document.
