Product details
Overview
US1B-13 from Diodes Incorporated is an ultra-fast surface-mount silicon rectifier diode in SMA package, rated for 100 V peak repetitive reverse voltage (VRRM), 1.0 A average rectified output current (IO), and 50 ns reverse recovery time (trr), used in high-frequency AC/DC conversion stages of switch-mode power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the US1B-13 datasheet, US1B-13 pinout, US1B-13 application, or US1B-13 equivalent, this device is selected for its low forward voltage drop (1.3 V @ 1.0 A), 30 A non-repetitive surge capability, RoHS-compliant lead-free plating, and suitability in compact, automated PCB assembly environments requiring fast switching and thermal reliability.
Technical Context
This discrete ultra-fast rectifier operates as a unidirectional current valve in bridge or single-phase half-wave configurations, with junction-to-terminal thermal resistance of 30 °C/W enabling stable operation at terminal temperatures up to +75°C. Its glass-passivated die construction ensures robustness against moisture and mechanical stress during reflow soldering.
The device exhibits 100 µA peak reverse current at +100°C and 100 V DC blocking, with typical junction capacitance of 10 pF at 1 MHz and 4 V reverse bias - parameters critical for minimizing switching losses and EMI in 50–500 kHz SMPS designs.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 100 V - Maximum repetitive reverse voltage before breakdown; defines safe operating limit in flyback/freewheeling paths. |
| IO | 1.0 A @ TT = +75°C - Continuous DC output current rating under real thermal boundary conditions. |
| trr | 50 ns - Ultra-fast recovery enables efficient operation above 100 kHz without excessive switching loss. |
| VFM | 1.3 V @ IF = 1.0 A - Forward voltage directly impacts conduction loss and thermal rise in high-current paths. |
| IFSM | 30 A (8.3 ms half-sine) - Withstands inrush surges common during power-up in offline AC-DC converters. |
| RθJT | 30 °C/W - Enables accurate thermal modeling from junction to PCB pad for layout-driven cooling design. |
Pinout & Package
SMA (DO-214AC) surface-mount package: molded plastic case, UL 94V-0 flammability rating, cathode indicated by band or notch, matte tin-plated terminals, 0.064 g mass.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Current entry point during forward conduction | Connected to AC input or switching node; must withstand full surge current and thermal cycling. |
| Cathode | Current exit point during forward conduction | Connected to output rail or ground return; polarity marking ensures correct orientation in automated placement. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Glass passivated die | Eliminates need for hermetic sealing while maintaining high humidity resistance and long-term reliability in industrial environments. |
| Ultra-fast 50 ns recovery | Reduces reverse recovery charge (Qrr) and associated switching losses in high-frequency topologies like LLC resonant converters. |
| Lead-free, halogen-free "Green" construction | Meets EU RoHS 2 and JEDEC J-STD-020 Level 1 moisture sensitivity requirements for standard reflow profiles. |
| 30 A surge rating | Supports transient overloads without degradation, reducing need for external fusing in cost-sensitive consumer power adapters. |
Applications
| AC-DC Adapter Power Stage | USB-C PD Fast Charger Output Rectification |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Secondary-side rectification in 20–65 W offline flyback converters powering wall adapters. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Unidirectional current steering after transformer secondary winding; replaces slower general-purpose rectifiers to reduce heat and improve efficiency. Use Value: 1.3 V forward drop and 50 ns trr lower conduction + switching losses by ~12% vs. standard 1N4007 at 100 kHz, enabling smaller heatsinks. | Use Scenario: Synchronous rectification replacement in USB-C PD 3.0 compliant chargers delivering 20–45 V output. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Freewheeling diode in quasi-resonant topology where gate drive timing constraints preclude active MOSFET control. Use Value: 100 V VRRM safely handles reflected transients up to 120 Vpk; 30 A IFSM absorbs capacitor charging surges during hot-plug events. |
| Industrial PLC Power Supply Input | LED Driver Bulk Rectification |
Use Scenario: Input rectification stage in DIN-rail mounted 24 V DC power supplies for programmable logic controllers. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Half-wave or full-wave bridge leg component handling 50/60 Hz line frequency with high reliability across -40°C to +85°C ambient. Use Value: -65°C to +150°C operating range and 30 °C/W RθJT ensure stable performance under sustained load in enclosed enclosures without forced air. | Use Scenario: Bulk AC rectification feeding constant-current LED driver ICs in outdoor streetlight modules. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary rectifier converting 100–277 VAC line to high-voltage DC bus prior to buck or boost regulation. Use Value: 100 µA IR at +100°C prevents significant leakage-induced standby power waste in always-on lighting systems. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar ultra-fast rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH1R04U | Same 100 V VRRM, but 35 ns trr and 1.25 V VF; TO-277 package (lower RθJA). | Better suited for thermally constrained layouts needing <40 ns recovery; requires different footprint and stencil. | Select when board space allows larger TO-277 and efficiency gain justifies redesign effort. |
| MBR1100 | 100 V Schottky; 0.85 V VF but higher IR (500 µA @ 100°C); no reverse recovery. | Lower conduction loss but unsuitable for >85°C ambient due to leakage; not rated for line-frequency surge. | Prefer only in low-temperature, low-surge environments where lowest VF dominates system efficiency. |
Compared with STTH1R04U and MBR1100, US1B-13 offers balanced trade-offs: sufficient speed for 200 kHz SMPS, robust surge tolerance for line-connected equipment, and SMA footprint compatibility with high-volume pick-and-place lines - making it optimal for cost-sensitive, thermally moderate industrial and consumer power designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature for US1B-13 during continuous operation?
The US1B-13 has a specified operating junction temperature range of –65°C to +150°C. For continuous operation at rated 1.0 A average current, the terminal temperature must be maintained at ≤+75°C per the derating curve. At that condition, junction temperature remains within safe limits assuming RθJT = 30 °C/W and no additional thermal resistance from PCB copper.
Can US1B-13 replace US1A-13 in an existing design?
Yes - US1B-13 is a direct upgrade from US1A-13, sharing identical SMA package, pinout, and thermal characteristics, but with higher 100 V VRRM (vs. 50 V) and slightly higher 1.3 V forward voltage (vs. 1.0 V). It is safe to substitute where reverse voltage margin is insufficient with US1A-13, provided forward loss increase is acceptable.
Is US1B-13 suitable for use in synchronous rectification circuits?
No - US1B-13 is a passive diode and cannot be actively controlled. It serves only as a freewheeling or rectifying element in non-synchronous topologies. Synchronous rectification requires externally gated MOSFETs; however, US1B-13 may be used as a backup or redundancy diode in such circuits.
Does US1B-13 meet automotive qualification standards?
No - US1B-13 is not AEC-Q101 qualified. It is rated for industrial and commercial applications only, with operating temperature range –65°C to +150°C but no automotive-specific stress testing, failure analysis, or PPAP documentation. For automotive use, Diodes' AEC-Q101-certified equivalents like the B1100Q series should be considered.
