Product details
Overview
TS20K60-T from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 20A, 600V standard single-phase bridge rectifier in TS4K in-line package, featuring 220A surge current capability, 1.05V max forward voltage at 10A/25°C, and ultra-low 5μA reverse leakage at 25°C - used in on-board chargers and AC-DC front-end conversion stages.
For engineers reviewing the TS20K60-T datasheet, TS20K60-T pinout, TS20K60-T application, or TS20K60-T equivalent, key selection criteria include repetitive peak reverse voltage (600V), thermal resistance (RθJL = 1.3°C/W), junction temperature range (–55°C to +150°C), and UL recognition (E-326243).
Technical Context
The TS20K60-T integrates four silicon diodes in a single-phase full-wave bridge configuration with in-line terminal layout. Its 600V VRRM rating supports universal AC input (85–265VAC) rectification while maintaining 220A IFSM surge tolerance for inrush-limited power supplies.
Thermally optimized for PCB mounting with RθJC = 1.2°C/W and RθJL = 1.3°C/W, it delivers stable operation up to TJ = 150°C and exhibits low capacitance (65pF @ 1MHz, 4V) suitable for high-frequency switching environments.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar bridge rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vishay VS-20B60 | Same 20A/600V rating; TO-220AC package with isolated tab; higher RθJA (35°C/W) requires heatsink. | Requires mechanical isolation and heatsinking; less suitable for compact PCB-only designs. | Prefer when thermal interface to metal chassis is available and creepage/clearance constraints allow TO-220 footprint. |
| ON Semiconductor GBPC206 | 20A/600V GPP bridge in GBPC package; slightly higher VF (1.1V typ); UL recognized (E171252). | Wider lead spacing (5.1mm vs. TS4K's 3.5mm); larger footprint; same in-line pinout orientation. | Choose when legacy GBPC footprint compatibility is required or where higher creepage distance is mandated. |
Compared with VS-20B60 and GBPC206, the TS20K60-T offers superior thermal performance via low RθJL, compact TS4K footprint, and optimized leadframe design - making it preferred for space-constrained, heatsinkless PCB layouts in OBC and industrial PSU designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for the TS20K60-T?
The TS20K60-T has a maximum junction temperature (TJ) rating of +150°C and a minimum of –55°C. This wide operating range allows deployment in demanding environments such as under-hood automotive systems or industrial enclosures without forced cooling. The TS20K60-T maintains electrical integrity across this full range when derated per its forward current derating curve.
Does the TS20K60-T require a heatsink for 20A continuous operation?
No, the TS20K60-T does not require an external heatsink for 20A continuous operation when mounted on ≥2 oz. copper PCB with ≥4 cm² thermal pad area. Its RθJL = 1.3°C/W enables sufficient heat transfer through leads to the board. However, ambient temperature and airflow must remain ≤75°C at the case for full-rated current.
Is the TS20K60-T UL recognized, and what is its file number?
Yes, the TS20K60-T is UL Recognized under File # E-326243. This certification covers the entire TS20Kxx-T family and validates compliance with UL 60747-4 for semiconductor devices, supporting end-product safety approvals including IEC 62368-1 and UL 62368-1.
What is the marking code printed on the TS20K60-T package?
The TS20K60-T is laser-marked with "TS20K60" on the top surface of the TS4K package, followed by green compound indicator (G), date code (YWW), and factory code (F). No additional suffixes or revision indicators appear on the device body per datasheet Version A2208.
How does the TS20K60-T compare to the TS20K40-T in terms of reverse voltage capability?
The TS20K60-T has a repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM) of 600V, whereas the TS20K40-T is rated for 400V. Both share identical forward current (20A), surge rating (220A), thermal resistance, and package. Select TS20K60-T for applications with higher AC line peaks (e.g., 277VAC systems) or enhanced margin against transients.
