Product details
Overview
US1J from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 600 V, 1 A ultrafast surface-mount rectifier diode in DO-214AC (SMA) package, featuring 1.7 V max forward voltage at 1 A and 75 ns reverse recovery time; used in snubber networks and DC-DC converter freewheeling paths.
For engineers reviewing the US1J datasheet, US1J pinout, US1J application, or US1J equivalent, key selection criteria include repetitive peak reverse voltage (600 V), junction-to-lead thermal resistance (27 °C/W), moisture sensitivity level (J-STD-020 Level 1), and RoHS/halogen-free compliance for high-reliability industrial power designs.
Technical Context
The US1J is a single-die, glass-passivated silicon PN junction rectifier optimized for high-frequency switching applications. Its ultrafast recovery (75 ns typ.) and low junction capacitance (10 pF at 1 MHz, 4 V) minimize switching losses in SMPS topologies.
Designed for automated placement and reflow soldering, it meets JESD201 Class 2 whisker resistance and UL 94V-0 flammability requirements. Cathode polarity is marked by a visible band on the DO-214AC molded case.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 600 V - supports input rectification up to 420 V RMS in offline AC-DC converters |
| IF | 1 A continuous - suitable for low-to-medium power DC-DC stages with average current ≤1 A |
| trr | 75 ns max - enables operation at ≥100 kHz switching frequencies with reduced turn-off loss |
| VF | 1.7 V max at 1 A, 25°C - limits conduction loss to ≤1.7 W per device under full load |
| RθJL | 27 °C/W - allows 1.1 W power dissipation before reaching 150°C junction limit at 25°C lead temp |
| IR | 5 µA max at 600 V, 25°C - ensures minimal leakage in high-impedance hold-up or sensing circuits |

Applications
| DC-DC Converter Freewheeling | Snubber Network Clamping |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Freewheeling path in synchronous buck or flyback converters delivering 5–24 V at ≤1 A output. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Freewheeling diode providing low-loss current recirculation during high-side switch off-time. Use Value: 75 ns trr and 1.7 V VF minimize energy loss and heat generation during each switching cycle. | Use Scenario: RCD snubber across MOSFET drain-source in offline SMPS operating at 65–130 kHz. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Clamp diode absorbing inductive kickback energy during MOSFET turn-off. Use Value: 600 V VRRM rating safely handles reflected transients; 10 pF CJ minimizes capacitive loading on snubber RC timing. |
| Switching Inverter Output Stage | LED Driver Flyback Secondary |
Use Scenario: Output rectification in 100–300 W isolated DC-AC inverters with 200–400 V DC bus. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-voltage output rectifier converting transformer secondary AC to regulated DC bus. Use Value: 600 V rating accommodates peak inverse voltage under worst-case load and line transients. | Use Scenario: Secondary-side rectification in constant-current LED drivers powering 12–24 V strings. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Isolated output rectifier delivering low-noise DC to LED load with minimal EMI. Use Value: Low IR (5 µA @ 25°C) prevents dark-current leakage that could cause LED flicker or standby power exceedance. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar ultrafast rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH1R06 | 600 V, 1 A, 75 ns trr, but VF = 1.8 V max; TO-220AC package | Requires through-hole mounting and heatsinking; not suitable for space-constrained SMD layouts | Select when board-level thermal management allows TO-220 footprint and higher VF is acceptable |
| MBR160 | 60 V VRRM only; Schottky structure; VF = 0.75 V typ.; no reverse recovery | Not rated for 600 V systems; limited to low-voltage DC-DC outputs ≤48 V | Choose only for <60 V applications where ultra-low VF outweighs voltage limitation |
Compared with STTH1R06 and MBR160, the US1J uniquely balances 600 V capability, SMD DO-214AC packaging, and 75 ns trr-making it the only viable option for compact, high-voltage, high-frequency freewheeling in modern SMT power supplies.

FAQ
What is the maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM) for US1J?
The US1J has a VRRM rating of 600 V, verified per Taiwan Semiconductor's N2102 datasheet revision. This value defines the highest instantaneous reverse voltage the US1J can block repeatedly without breakdown. It is critical for selecting appropriate derating margins in offline AC-DC and high-bus DC-DC designs where transient overvoltages may occur.
Does US1J have a specified junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (RθJA)?
Yes, the US1J has a typical RθJA of 75 °C/W, measured under standard JEDEC test conditions (single device on 1-inch² FR-4 board with 2 oz copper). This parameter helps estimate temperature rise in natural-convection environments; however, for reliable thermal design, RθJL (27 °C/W) should be used with PCB copper pour and thermal vias.
Is US1J RoHS and halogen-free compliant?
Yes, the US1J is RoHS compliant and halogen-free per IEC 61249-2-21, as confirmed in the official Taiwan Semiconductor documentation. The molding compound contains no brominated flame retardants or chlorine-based additives, supporting environmentally regulated industrial and consumer product certifications.
What is the reverse recovery time (trr) specification for US1J?
The US1J has a maximum reverse recovery time (trr) of 75 ns, tested at IF = 0.5 A, IR = 1.0 A, and Irr = 0.25 A. This ultrafast recovery enables efficient operation in switching power supplies above 100 kHz, reducing switching losses compared to standard recovery rectifiers.
Can US1J be used as a direct replacement for US1M in a 1000 V design?
No, US1J cannot replace US1M in a 1000 V design because its VRRM is 600 V versus US1M's 1000 V. Substituting US1J would risk catastrophic failure under rated reverse stress. Always match VRRM to the peak inverse voltage requirement of the target circuit, including safety margin.
