Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation TS15P02G C2G

Overview

TS15P02G from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 15A, 100V repetitive peak reverse voltage (V_RRM) standard quad bridge rectifier in TS-6P package, featuring glass-passivated junctions, <0.1μA typical reverse leakage at 25°C, and 240A peak surge current capability; it is widely deployed in AC/DC front-end stages of industrial adapters and lighting power supplies.

For engineers reviewing the TS15P02G datasheet, TS15P02G pinout, TS15P02G application, or TS15P02G equivalent, key selection criteria include V_RRM=100V, I_F=15A, I_FSM=240A, R_θJC=0.8°C/W, and TS-6P mechanical compatibility with high-reliability PCB mounting requirements.

Technical Context

The TS15P02G integrates four silicon diodes in a single-phase bridge configuration with common-cathode/common-anode topology, optimized for line-frequency and high-frequency switching rectification. Its glass-passivated junction ensures stable reverse blocking under thermal cycling and humidity stress.

Thermal performance is defined by a low junction-to-case resistance of 0.8°C/W, enabling direct heatsink mounting without thermal interface material in moderate-power applications. The device operates across -55°C to +150°C junction temperature range and meets UL 94V-0 flammability and JESD201 Class 2 whisker resistance standards.

FAQ

What is the maximum junction temperature rating for TS15P02G?

The TS15P02G has a maximum junction temperature (T_JMAX) of +150°C, allowing reliable operation in high-ambient environments such as enclosed LED drivers or industrial control cabinets. This rating is validated under continuous I_F = 15 A conditions with proper heatsinking. Derating curves in the TS15P02G datasheet define allowable current reduction above 25°C case temperature.

Does TS15P02G meet automotive qualification standards?

The base TS15P02G is not AEC-Q101 qualified, but its variant TS15P02GH is explicitly certified to AEC-Q101. Engineers requiring automotive-grade reliability must specify the "H" suffix version. Both share identical electrical and thermal specs, with TS15P02GH undergoing additional stress testing including temperature cycling, high-temperature reverse bias, and unbiased highly accelerated stress testing (UHAST).

What is the forward voltage drop of TS15P02G at full load?

At I_F = 15 A and T_J = 25°C, the TS15P02G exhibits a maximum forward voltage drop of 1.1 V per diode. Since the bridge contains two conducting diodes in series during each half-cycle, total conduction loss reaches up to ~33 W at full load-critical for thermal design validation using the specified R_θJC = 0.8°C/W value.

Can TS15P02G replace TS15P01G in a design?

Yes, TS15P02G can directly replace TS15P01G (V_RRM = 50 V) in most applications because it maintains identical package (TS-6P), pinout, thermal characteristics, and current ratings-while offering higher reverse voltage margin (100 V vs. 50 V). No PCB or thermal redesign is needed, though system-level overvoltage protection should be re-verified for the increased blocking capability.

What does the "G" suffix signify in TS15P02G?

The "G" suffix in TS15P02G indicates green compound packaging compliant with RoHS and halogen-free requirements per IEC 61249-2-21. It confirms the molding compound contains no brominated flame retardants or chlorine-based additives. This designation is standardized across the TS15P01G–TS15P07G family and appears in the device marking and ordering code.
