Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation TS15P01GHC2G

Overview

TS15P01GHC2G from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 15A, 50V AEC-Q101-qualified standard quad bridge rectifier in TS-6P package, featuring glass-passivated junctions, <0.1μA typical reverse leakage at 25°C, 240A peak surge current, and UL Recognized File #E-326243 - used in automotive-grade AC/DC front-end stages of SMPS.

For engineers reviewing the TS15P01GHC2G datasheet, TS15P01GHC2G pinout, TS15P01GHC2G application, or TS15P01GHC2G equivalent, key selection criteria include repetitive peak reverse voltage (50 V), forward current rating (15 A), thermal resistance (0.8 °C/W), AEC-Q101 qualification status, and TS-6P mechanical compatibility with high-reliability board-mount power conversion designs.

Technical Context

This device integrates four diodes in a single-phase bridge configuration with glass-passivated silicon junctions for enhanced moisture and contamination resistance. Its TS-6P package enables direct PCB mounting with matte tin-plated leads compliant to J-STD-002 solderability and JESD201 Class 2 whisker resistance.

The TS15P01GHC2G operates across –55°C to +150°C junction temperature range and delivers 1.0 V max forward voltage at 7.5 A and 25°C, rising to 1.1 V max at 15 A. Reverse current remains ≤10 μA at rated 50 V and 25°C, supporting low-loss standby operation in regulated power supplies.

Key Specifications

FAQ

What does the 'H' suffix in TS15P01GHC2G indicate?

The 'H' in TS15P01GHC2G denotes AEC-Q101 qualification, confirming that the device has passed rigorous automotive reliability testing including temperature cycling, high-temperature reverse bias, and unbiased highly accelerated stress testing. This makes TS15P01GHC2G suitable for under-hood and other demanding automotive applications where standard industrial-grade rectifiers would not qualify.

Is TS15P01GHC2G pin-compatible with other TS-6P bridge rectifiers?

Yes, TS15P01GHC2G uses the standardized TS-6P footprint and pinout defined by Taiwan Semiconductor for its TS15P family. All variants (TS15P01G through TS15P07G) share identical mechanical dimensions, lead spacing, and terminal assignments - enabling design reuse across voltage grades without PCB layout changes.

What is the maximum allowable mounting torque for TS15P01GHC2G?

The maximum mounting torque for TS15P01GHC2G is 0.92 N·m, as specified in the mechanical data section. Exceeding this value risks cracking the molded TS-6P package or damaging internal wire bonds. Proper torque control during screw-terminal or heatsink mounting is essential to maintain long-term reliability and thermal performance.

Does TS15P01GHC2G require heatsinking in 15 A continuous operation?

At 15 A continuous forward current and 25°C ambient, TS15P01GHC2G dissipates approximately 15.75 W (based on 1.05 V VF avg). With R_θJC = 0.8 °C/W, junction temperature rise exceeds safe limits without heatsinking. A heatsink maintaining case temperature ≤85°C is required to keep T_J within the +150°C maximum rating under full load.

How does the glass passivation in TS15P01GHC2G improve long-term reliability?

Glass passivation in TS15P01GHC2G forms a hermetic barrier over the silicon junction, preventing moisture ingress and ion migration that cause parametric drift or premature failure. This directly reduces long-term IR increase and improves stability in humid or thermally cycled environments - a key factor in automotive and outdoor-rated power supplies where TS15P01GHC2G is deployed.
