Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation TS6K100H

Overview

TS6K100H from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 6A, 1000V rated standard quad bridge rectifier in TS4K package, featuring 150A surge capability, <5 μA reverse current at 25°C, and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive-grade reliability. It serves as the primary AC-to-DC conversion stage in high-voltage offline power supplies.

For engineers reviewing the TS6K100H datasheet, TS6K100H pinout, TS6K100H application, or TS6K100H equivalent, key selection criteria include repetitive peak reverse voltage (1000 V), forward current rating (6 A), thermal resistance (3 °C/W), AEC-Q101 compliance status, and TS4K mechanical compatibility with PCB-mounting requirements.

Technical Context

This device integrates four silicon diodes in a single-phase bridge configuration, enabling full-wave rectification without external interconnection. Its junction-to-case thermal resistance of 3 °C/W supports conduction-cooled mounting on copper-clad PCBs or heatsinks.

The TS6K100H operates across –55°C to +150°C junction temperature range and sustains 150 A non-repetitive surge current (8.3 ms half-sine) - critical for handling inrush in SMPS input stages. Reverse leakage remains ≤5 μA at 25°C and ≤500 μA at 125°C under rated 1000 V reverse bias.

FAQ

What is the peak repetitive reverse voltage rating of the TS6K100H?

The TS6K100H has a peak repetitive reverse voltage (V_RRM) rating of 1000 V. This value is specified per diode within the bridge and defines the maximum AC voltage the device can block during normal operation. It supports universal input (90–265 V_AC) designs with safety margin against line surges, and is confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table of the official TSC datasheet Version F2101.

Is the TS6K100H qualified to AEC-Q101 standards?

Yes, the TS6K100H is explicitly AEC-Q101 qualified, as indicated by the "H" suffix in its ordering code and stated in the FEATURES section of the TSC datasheet. This qualification covers stress tests including high-temperature operating life, temperature cycling, and highly accelerated stress testing - confirming suitability for automotive power electronics where reliability under thermal and mechanical stress is critical. The TS6K100H carries this qualification out-of-the-box.

What is the thermal resistance from junction to case for the TS6K100H?

The junction-to-case thermal resistance (R_θJC) of the TS6K100H is 3 °C/W, as published in the THERMAL PERFORMANCE section of the datasheet. This low value enables efficient heat transfer from the silicon die to the PCB copper pour or external heatsink, supporting continuous 6 A operation without forced air cooling in well-designed layouts. It is measured under standard JEDEC conditions and applies to the TS4K package.

Does the TS6K100H have UL recognition?

Yes, the TS6K100H is UL Recognized under File # E-326243. This recognition confirms compliance with UL 60950-1 and UL 62368-1 for use in end equipment requiring safety agency approval. It applies to the entire TS6K40–TS6K100 family and validates insulation, flammability (UL 94V-0), and terminal integrity - reducing time and cost for system-level safety certification.

What is the maximum surge current the TS6K100H can withstand?

The TS6K100H can withstand a non-repetitive peak forward surge current (I_FSM) of 150 A for an 8.3 ms half-sine waveform, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This rating reflects the device's ability to survive inrush currents during cold-start conditions in SMPS and adapters. It is validated per JESD22-A112 and supports designs without external inrush limiting components when properly fused.
