Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation TS15P01G D2G

Overview

TS15P01G from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 15A, 50V standard quad bridge rectifier in TS-6P package, featuring glass-passivated junctions, <0.1μA typical reverse leakage at 25°C, 240A peak surge capability, and UL Recognized (E-326243) construction. It serves as the primary AC-to-DC conversion stage in compact switching mode power supplies.

For engineers reviewing the TS15P01G datasheet, TS15P01G pinout, TS15P01G application, or TS15P01G equivalent, key selection criteria include repetitive peak reverse voltage (50 V), average forward current (15 A), thermal resistance (0.8 °C/W), AEC-Q101 qualification status, and TS-6P mechanical compatibility with high-density PCB layouts.

Technical Context

The TS15P01G integrates four silicon diodes in a single-phase full-wave bridge configuration, enabling direct AC input rectification without external interconnection. Its glass-passivated junction ensures stable reverse characteristics across temperature and long-term reliability under repeated surge stress.

With a junction-to-case thermal resistance of 0.8 °C/W and maximum junction temperature of 150 °C, the device supports sustained 15 A conduction when mounted on adequately heatsinked copper planes. The TS-6P package provides robust mechanical mounting (0.92 N·m max torque) and meets UL 94V-0 flammability requirements.

FAQ

What is the maximum continuous forward current rating for TS15P01G?

The TS15P01G is rated for 15 A average forward current (IF) at case temperature ≤75 °C with adequate heatsinking. This rating assumes proper PCB copper area or external heatsink to maintain junction temperature below 150 °C. Derating is required above 75 °C case temperature per the forward current derating curve in the datasheet. The TS15P01G maintains this rating across its full operating temperature range when thermal design guidelines are followed.

Does TS15P01G meet automotive reliability standards?

The base TS15P01G is not AEC-Q101 qualified; however, the pin-compatible variant TS15P01GH is explicitly qualified to AEC-Q101. Both share identical electrical and thermal specifications, but only TS15P01GH undergoes the full stress test sequence-including temperature cycling, HTRB, and ESD-required for automotive power supply modules. For automotive applications, TS15P01GH must be specified and sourced.

What is the forward voltage drop of TS15P01G at full load?

At 15 A forward current and 25 °C junction temperature, the TS15P01G exhibits a maximum forward voltage drop of 1.1 V per diode (4.4 V total bridge drop). At 7.5 A and 25 °C, the typical VF is ≤1.0 V per diode. These values are measured under pulse conditions (PW = 0.3 ms) and reflect worst-case conduction loss for thermal design calculations.

Can TS15P01G replace discrete diode bridges in existing designs?

Yes-the TS15P01G is a direct functional and mechanical replacement for 4-discrete-diode bridge layouts using TS-6P-compatible footprints. Its integrated quad configuration eliminates interconnect parasitics, reduces assembly steps, and improves reliability. PCB land pattern must match TS-6P dimensions and polarity marking; no circuit redesign is needed beyond verifying thermal margin with the improved RθJC of 0.8 °C/W.

What is the reverse leakage current specification for TS15P01G?

The TS15P01G specifies a maximum reverse current (IR) of 10 μA per diode at 25 °C and rated VRRM (50 V), and up to 500 μA per diode at 125 °C. Typical IR is less than 0.1 μA at 25 °C. These values are measured under 30 ms pulse conditions and confirm low standby power loss-critical for energy-efficient power supplies meeting Level VI or ErP standards.
