Product details
Overview
US1MHR3G from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 1 A, 1000 V ultrafast surface-mount rectifier in DO-214AC (SMA) package, featuring 1.7 V max forward voltage at 1 A and 75 ns reverse recovery time. It serves as a freewheeling or snubber diode in high-frequency switching power supplies, delivering low conduction loss and fast turn-off in DC-DC converters and lighting inverters.
For engineers reviewing the US1MHR3G datasheet, US1MHR3G pinout, US1MHR3G application, or US1MHR3G equivalent, key selection criteria include peak reverse voltage rating, thermal resistance (RθJA = 75 °C/W), junction capacitance (10 pF), and moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1).
Technical Context
This device is a single-die, unidirectional silicon rectifier optimized for high-efficiency switching applications. Its ultrafast recovery (trr ≤ 75 ns) minimizes switching losses during turn-off, while glass passivation ensures stable junction performance under thermal cycling and humidity stress.
The DO-214AC (SMA) package supports automated placement and provides 27 °C/W junction-to-lead thermal resistance. Polarity is marked by a cathode band, and terminals are matte tin-plated per J-STD-002 solderability standards.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 1000 V - maximum repetitive reverse blocking voltage without breakdown |
| IF | 1 A continuous - average forward current rating at TL = 75 °C |
| trr | 75 ns - reverse recovery time limits switching loss in >100 kHz topologies |
| VF | 1.7 V max at IF = 1 A, TJ = 25 °C - determines conduction loss in high-duty-cycle operation |
| RθJA | 75 °C/W - defines temperature rise above ambient under natural convection |
| CJ | 10 pF at 1 MHz, VR = 4 V - impacts high-frequency noise coupling and EMI filter design |
| IFSM | 30 A peak - surge capability for inrush or fault conditions in SMPS input stages |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar ultrafast rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH1R06U | Same VRRM (600 V), lower VF (1.3 V typ), but trr = 35 ns - faster but lower voltage rating | Not suitable for 1000 V bus designs; limited to ≤600 V DC-link applications | Select only if system VRRM margin allows 600 V rating and faster recovery is prioritized over voltage headroom |
| ES1J-E3/54 | Same DO-214AC package, identical VRRM (600 V), VF = 1.7 V, trr = 35 ns - faster but lower voltage rating | Requires redesign of snubber/clamp networks when replacing US1MHR3G in 1000 V systems | Use where 600 V rating suffices and tighter trr tolerance is needed; verify layout clearance for reduced VRRM |
Compared with STTH1R06U and ES1J-E3/54, US1MHR3G uniquely supports 1000 V blocking while maintaining MSL 1 and halogen-free compliance - critical for high-voltage industrial lighting and telecom power where safety margins and RoHS enforcement are non-negotiable.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for US1MHR3G?
The US1MHR3G has a maximum junction temperature (TJ) of +150 °C, verified per absolute maximum ratings in the official Taiwan Semiconductor datasheet. This rating enables reliable operation in enclosed industrial enclosures or high-ambient lighting fixtures where heatsinking is constrained. Derating curves confirm usable current capacity down to 0.5 A at 125 °C ambient, provided PCB copper area meets minimum thermal pad requirements.
Is US1MHR3G compatible with lead-free reflow soldering profiles?
Yes, US1MHR3G is fully compatible with lead-free reflow soldering per J-STD-020. Its MSL 1 classification means it can be stored indefinitely at ≤30 °C/60% RH without baking, and its matte tin-plated leads meet J-STD-002 for wetting performance. Peak reflow temperature up to 260 °C is supported, matching standard Pb-free SAC305 profiles used in automotive and industrial assembly lines.
Does US1MHR3G have a specified junction-to-case thermal resistance?
No, the US1MHR3G datasheet does not specify RθJC; only RθJL = 27 °C/W (junction-to-lead) and RθJA = 75 °C/W (junction-to-ambient) are provided. Thermal design must rely on RθJL for solder-pad-based conduction paths or RθJA for natural-convection board-level estimation. No RθJC value is published or validated for this DO-214AC device.
What is the reverse leakage current specification for US1MHR3G at elevated temperature?
At TJ = 125 °C and rated VR, US1MHR3G exhibits a maximum reverse leakage current (IR) of 150 µA, per the electrical specifications table. This value is measured under pulse conditions (PW = 30 ms) and reflects worst-case leakage in high-temperature LED driver or telecom PSU environments where thermal runaway must be avoided in parallel-connected configurations.
Can US1MHR3G be used as a direct replacement for US1M in existing designs?
Yes, US1MHR3G is a direct replacement for US1M - both share identical electrical parameters (VRRM = 1000 V, IF = 1 A, trr ≤ 75 ns), DO-214AC package, and MSL 1 rating. The "HR3G" suffix denotes green/halogen-free compliance and tape-and-reel packaging per J-STD-020; no circuit or layout changes are required when upgrading from legacy US1M to US1MHR3G.
