Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation TS6P01GH

Overview

TS6P01GH from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 6A, 50V AEC-Q101-qualified standard bridge rectifier in TS-6P package with quad configuration, glass passivated junction, <0.1μA typical reverse leakage at 25°C, and 150A peak surge current capability-used in automotive-grade AC/DC front-end stages of LED drivers and compact adapters.

For engineers reviewing the TS6P01GH datasheet, TS6P01GH pinout, TS6P01GH application, or TS6P01GH equivalent, key selection criteria include its 50V repetitive peak reverse voltage, 1.1V max forward voltage at 6A, UL Recognized status (E-326243), RoHS/halogen-free compliance, and TS-6P mechanical mounting torque limit of 0.92 N·m.

Technical Context

The TS6P01GH integrates four silicon diodes in a single-phase full-wave bridge configuration with glass-passivated junctions for enhanced reliability under thermal cycling and humidity stress. Its TS-6P package features matte tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002 solderability and JESD201 Class 2 whisker resistance.

Thermal performance is defined by a 1.8°C/W junction-to-case thermal resistance, enabling stable operation up to +150°C junction temperature. Reverse current remains ≤10μA at rated 50V VR and 25°C, rising to ≤500μA at 125°C-critical for low-power standby circuits in automotive lighting modules.

FAQ

What is the peak repetitive reverse voltage rating for TS6P01GH?

The TS6P01GH has a repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM) rating of 50 V. This value defines the maximum AC voltage the device can block in reverse bias without breakdown during normal operation. It is measured under standard test conditions (TA = 25°C) and must be derated at elevated temperatures per the datasheet's reverse characteristics curve. Designers should ensure input AC peak voltage remains below this threshold with appropriate safety margin.

Is TS6P01GH suitable for automotive applications?

Yes, TS6P01GH is AEC-Q101 qualified, meaning it has passed stress tests including high-temperature reverse bias, temperature cycling, and unbiased highly accelerated stress testing-specifically validated for automotive underhood and cabin environments. Its –55°C to +150°C operating junction temperature range and UL Recognition further support deployment in automotive LED drivers and body control modules.

What is the forward voltage drop of TS6P01GH at full rated current?

At 6 A forward current and 25°C junction temperature, the TS6P01GH exhibits a maximum forward voltage drop (VF) of 1.1 V per diode. This value is critical for calculating conduction losses (P = IF × VF) and estimating thermal rise. The actual VF decreases at lower currents and increases with junction temperature-refer to Figure 4 (Typical Forward Characteristics) in the official datasheet for precise curve data.

Does TS6P01GH have RoHS and halogen-free compliance?

Yes, TS6P01GH is RoHS compliant and halogen-free per IEC 61249-2-21. The molding compound contains no brominated or chlorinated flame retardants, and all lead finishes meet EU RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU restrictions. This compliance supports environmental requirements for export to EU, China, and other regulated markets, and aligns with green manufacturing initiatives in automotive and industrial supply chains.

What is the thermal resistance from junction to case for TS6P01GH?

The junction-to-case thermal resistance (RθJC) of TS6P01GH is 1.8°C/W. This parameter quantifies how effectively heat transfers from the silicon die to the outer case surface, assuming proper mechanical mounting with recommended torque (≤0.92 N·m). Accurate heatsinking or PCB copper area design requires this value to calculate total thermal path and ensure TJ stays within –55°C to +150°C limits under worst-case load conditions.
