Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation TS6P04G-K

Overview

TS6P04G-K from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 6A, 400V repetitive peak reverse voltage (V_RRM) quad-configuration standard bridge rectifier in TS-6P package, featuring glass-passivated junctions, <10 µA reverse current at 25°C, and 150A peak surge capability - deployed in AC/DC front-end stages of compact SMPS and LED drivers.

For engineers reviewing the TS6P04G-K datasheet, TS6P04G-K pinout, TS6P04G-K application, or TS6P04G-K equivalent, key selection criteria include V_RRM = 400 V, I_F = 6 A, thermal resistance R_θJC = 1.8 °C/W, and UL recognition E-326243 for safety-critical power conversion designs.

Technical Context

The TS6P04G-K integrates four silicon diodes in a single-phase full-wave bridge configuration with common-cathode and common-anode terminals externally accessible. Its glass-passivated junction ensures stable leakage performance (<10 µA @ 25°C) and robustness against humidity and contamination.

Thermally, it delivers R_θJC = 1.8 °C/W and supports continuous operation up to T_J = 150°C, with I_FSM = 150 A (8.3 ms half-sine) enabling reliable handling of line transients in universal-input offline supplies.

TS6P04G-K is available at Aetrix Electronics and suitable for switching mode power supplies, LED lighting drivers, and USB-C power adapters requiring stable component supply, consistent parametric performance, and UL-recognized safety compliance.

Supply support for TS6P04G-K includes scheduled delivery planning, volume procurement assistance, BOM continuity management, traceable sourcing, and lifecycle availability coordination for OEM customers, industrial embedded developers, connected-device designers, and electronics production programs.

Manufacturer

Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation (TSC) is a vertically integrated analog and discrete semiconductor manufacturer headquartered in Hsinchu, Taiwan, specializing in rectifiers, TVS diodes, MOSFETs, and bipolar transistors since 1979.

The TS6P series was designed specifically for high-density, high-reliability AC/DC front-end rectification in consumer and industrial power supplies - emphasizing low leakage, high surge tolerance, and regulatory compliance in compact surface-mount packages.

FAQ

What is the maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage (V_RRM) of the TS6P04G-K?

The TS6P04G-K has a V_RRM of 400 V, confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table across all versions C2104 documentation. This rating defines the highest instantaneous reverse voltage the device can block repeatedly without breakdown, supporting universal-input 85–265 VAC applications with sufficient safety margin. The "04" in TS6P04G-K explicitly denotes the 400 V variant within the TS6P family.

Does the TS6P04G-K require a heatsink for 6 A continuous operation?

The TS6P04G-K can operate at 6 A continuous current without an external heatsink if the case temperature remains ≤75°C, as specified in the Forward Current Derating Curve. Its R_θJC = 1.8 °C/W allows effective thermal transfer to a large PCB copper pour. However, in enclosed or high-ambient (>50°C) environments, a minimal heatsink or thermal pad is recommended to maintain T_J ≤150°C.

Is the TS6P04G-K RoHS and halogen-free compliant?

Yes, the TS6P04G-K is RoHS compliant and halogen-free per IEC 61249-2-21, as stated in the FEATURES section and MECHANICAL DATA. The "G" suffix in TS6P04G-K explicitly indicates green (halogen-free) molding compound, and the device meets JESD201 Class 1A whisker requirements - critical for automotive and medical-adjacent applications.

What is the marking code printed on the TS6P04G-K package?

The TS6P04G-K is marked "TS6P04G" on the top surface of the TS-6P package, followed by date code (YWW) and factory code (F), as shown in the MARKING DIAGRAM on page 4 of the C2104 datasheet. The "-K" suffix denotes tape-and-reel packaging per ordering code convention but does not appear on the physical device marking.

How does the TS6P04G-K compare to the TS6P03G-K in terms of voltage rating and application scope?

The TS6P04G-K has V_RRM = 400 V, while the TS6P03G-K is rated at 200 V. This makes TS6P04G-K suitable for 230 VAC mains-derived supplies (peak ~325 V), whereas TS6P03G-K targets 115 VAC or low-voltage DC-fed inverters. Both share identical I_F = 6 A, package, and thermal specs - so substitution requires verifying reverse voltage margin in the target circuit.
