Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation TS8P05G C2G

Overview

TS8P05G from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 8A, 600V repetitive peak reverse voltage (V_RRM) standard quad bridge rectifier in TS-6P package, featuring glass-passivated junctions, <10 µA reverse current at 25°C, 200A surge capability, and UL Recognized File #E-326243 - used in AC/DC front-end stages of industrial SMPS and lighting ballasts.

For engineers reviewing the TS8P05G datasheet, TS8P05G pinout, TS8P05G application, or TS8P05G equivalent, key selection criteria include V_RRM = 600 V, I_F = 8 A, R_θJC = 1.4 °C/W, AEC-Q101 qualification availability (TS8P05GH), and TS-6P mechanical compatibility with PCB-mount high-current rectifier layouts.

Technical Context

The TS8P05G integrates four silicon diodes in a single-phase bridge configuration with common-cathode/common-anode internal layout, enabling full-wave rectification without external interconnects. Its glass-passivated junction ensures stable leakage performance across temperature and humidity stress.

Thermal design is supported by a low junction-to-case resistance of 1.4 °C/W and a maximum junction temperature of 150°C, allowing sustained 8A average forward current under forced-air or heatsink-assisted conditions per derating curves.

FAQ

What is the peak repetitive reverse voltage rating of the TS8P05G?

The TS8P05G has a repetitive peak reverse voltage (V_RRM) rating of 600 V, verified per the manufacturer's M2203 datasheet revision. This value defines the maximum instantaneous reverse voltage the device can block repeatedly without breakdown. It is selected to support 230 VAC mains inputs with safety margin and transient immunity in industrial power supplies. The TS8P05G must not be operated above this voltage in continuous or repetitive conditions.

Does the TS8P05G have UL recognition, and what does that mean for system certification?

Yes, the TS8P05G is UL Recognized under File #E-326243, confirming compliance with UL 60747-4 for discrete semiconductors. This recognition reduces evidence burden during end-equipment safety testing (e.g., IEC 62368-1), as the component's construction, flammability (UL 94V-0), and electrical isolation are pre-validated. The TS8P05G's UL status applies to both standard and AEC-Q101-qualified (TS8P05GH) variants.

What is the thermal resistance from junction to case for the TS8P05G, and how does it affect heatsinking?

The TS8P05G has a junction-to-case thermal resistance (R_θJC) of 1.4 °C/W, measured per JEDEC JESD51 standards. This low value means each watt dissipated internally raises the junction temperature only 1.4°C above the case temperature - enabling efficient heat transfer to an external heatsink or copper pour. For example, at 8 A conduction with ~1.1 V forward drop, ~8.8 W dissipation yields just ~12.3°C junction-to-case rise, supporting reliable operation up to 150°C junction.

Is the TS8P05G suitable for automotive applications, and what variant should be used?

The base TS8P05G is not AEC-Q101 qualified, but its variant TS8P05GH is fully AEC-Q101 qualified and shares identical electrical and thermal specifications. TS8P05GH adds extended temperature validation (−55°C to +150°C), enhanced process controls, and traceability - making it appropriate for automotive body electronics, infotainment power supplies, and ADAS auxiliary rails. The TS8P05G itself remains suited for industrial and commercial applications where AEC-Q101 is not mandated.

What are the marking and packaging details for the TS8P05G?

The TS8P05G is marked "TS8P05G" on the top surface, followed by "G" (green compound), a 3-digit date code (YWW), and factory code "F". It ships in tubes containing 15 units per tube, compatible with standard through-hole placement equipment. The TS-6P package uses matte tin-plated leads solderable per J-STD-002, and meets JESD201 Class 2 whisker resistance requirements - ensuring long-term solder joint integrity in vibration-prone environments.
