Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation TS6P03G-K

Overview

TS6P03G-K from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 6A, 200V 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 150A I_FSM surge capability - used in AC/DC front-end stages of compact SMPS and LED drivers.

For engineers reviewing the TS6P03G-K datasheet, TS6P03G-K pinout, TS6P03G-K application, or TS6P03G-K equivalent, key selection criteria include V_RRM = 200V, I_F = 6A average forward current, R_θJC = 1.8°C/W thermal resistance, UL recognition E-326243, and TS-6P mechanical compatibility with PCB-mounting torque ≤0.92 N·m.

Technical Context

The TS6P03G-K integrates four silicon diodes in a single-phase full-wave bridge configuration, enabling direct AC-to-DC conversion without external interconnection. Its glass passivation ensures stable reverse characteristics across -55°C to +150°C junction temperature range and supports high-reliability operation under repeated 8.3ms half-sine surge events up to 150A.

Designed for surface-mount-compatible through-hole assembly, the TS-6P package uses matte tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002 solderability and JESD201 Class 1A whisker resistance. Polarity is marked on the case, and the molding compound meets UL 94V-0 flammability rating.

FAQ

What is the maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage (V_RRM) of the TS6P03G-K?

The TS6P03G-K has a V_RRM of 200 V, as confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This value defines the highest instantaneous reverse voltage each internal diode can block repeatedly without breakdown. It is selected for compatibility with 120VAC mains inputs (170V peak), providing sufficient safety margin for transient spikes and line variations in commercial power supply designs.

Does the TS6P03G-K require a heatsink under full 6A load?

Thermal analysis shows that the TS6P03G-K can operate at 6A continuous without an external heatsink only if the case temperature remains ≤85°C and ambient conditions are controlled. With R_θJC = 1.8°C/W, a 10°C/W system-level thermal resistance (including PCB copper and airflow) is needed to maintain T_J ≤150°C. For sustained 6A operation in enclosed or high-ambient environments, a minimal heatsink or thermal pad is recommended to ensure reliability.

Is the TS6P03G-K compatible with lead-free reflow soldering processes?

Yes, the TS6P03G-K features matte tin-plated leads qualified to J-STD-002 for solderability and is rated for lead-free reflow profiles. The TS-6P package is designed to withstand peak temperatures up to 260°C for 10 seconds. However, due to its relatively high mass (7.15g), thermal soak time and ramp rates must comply with JEDEC J-STD-020 to avoid internal delamination or molding compound stress.

How does the TS6P03G-K differ from the TS6P02G-K and TS6P04G-K?

The TS6P03G-K differs from TS6P02G-K (100V V_RRM) and TS6P04G-K (400V V_RRM) solely in rated repetitive peak reverse voltage - all share identical I_F = 6A, I_FSM = 150A, TS-6P package, thermal specs, and pinout. The marking code "03" explicitly denotes the 200V version; no electrical or mechanical differentiation exists beyond V_RRM, enabling direct substitution only when voltage requirements match.

What safety certifications does the TS6P03G-K hold?

The TS6P03G-K is UL Recognized under File #E-326243, covering dielectric strength, flammability (UL 94V-0), and construction compliance. It is also RoHS-compliant and halogen-free per IEC 61249-2-21. No CB Scheme or cULus dual-marking is indicated in the official documentation; end-equipment certification remains the responsibility of the system integrator.
