Product details
Overview
VS-10ETS12SLHM3 from Vishay Semiconductors is a high-voltage, surface-mount silicon rectifier diode optimized for low forward voltage drop (1.1 V at 10 A, 25 °C) and rugged DC charging station operation. It delivers 10 A average forward current, 1200 V peak reverse voltage, and 160 A non-repetitive surge capability in a D2PAK (TO-263AB) package, serving as the primary AC-to-DC input rectifier in on-board EV battery chargers.
For engineers reviewing the VS-10ETS12SLHM3 datasheet, VS-10ETS12SLHM3 pinout, VS-10ETS12SLHM3 application, or VS-10ETS12SLHM3 equivalent, key selection criteria include its AEC-Q101 qualification, 2.5 °C/W junction-to-case thermal resistance, 150 °C maximum junction temperature, and halogen-free RoHS-compliant M3 termination - all critical for automotive-grade power conversion reliability.
Technical Context
This single-anode, single-cathode standard recovery rectifier uses glass-passivated pellet chip construction to achieve stable leakage performance (0.5 mA at 150 °C) and high surge robustness. Its forward slope resistance of 20 mΩ at 150 °C and threshold voltage of 0.82 V support predictable conduction loss modeling in high-current, thermally constrained designs.
The device operates across –40 °C to +150 °C junction temperature range and is rated for MSL Level 1 moisture sensitivity with 245 °C lead-free reflow peak. Its D2PAK thermal pad enables direct PCB heatsinking, and the 1 °C/W common heatsink derating reference confirms suitability for high-power bridge configurations.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| IF(AV) | 10 A average forward current at TC = 105 °C - defines continuous DC output capability in rectifier bridges with active heatsinking. |
| VRRM | 1200 V maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage - supports 800 VAC three-phase line inputs with safety margin for transient overvoltage. |
| VF at IF = 10 A | 1.1 V at TJ = 25 °C - enables <11 W conduction loss per device at full load, reducing thermal stress in compact charger modules. |
| IFSM | 160 A non-repetitive surge current (10 ms, no voltage reapplied) - withstands inrush into large DC-link capacitors during cold start. |
| RthJC | 2.5 °C/W junction-to-case - allows precise thermal design when mounted on copper-clad PCB or external heatsink. |
| TJ max. | +150 °C maximum junction temperature - enables operation in under-hood or enclosed EV charger environments without forced air. |
| IRM at 150 °C | 0.5 mA reverse leakage - ensures minimal standby power loss and stable blocking in high-temperature battery charging stages. |
Pinout & Package
VS-10ETS12SLHM3 is housed in a D2PAK (TO-263AB) surface-mount package with exposed thermal pad (pin 3), standardized per JEDEC outline. The package measures 10.67 mm × 9.65 mm × 4.83 mm (max) and weighs 2 g, supporting automated placement and high-power dissipation via soldered thermal pad.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Anode | Main AC input terminal - connects to transformer secondary or PFC output; requires trace width and copper area matching 10 A DC rating. |
| 2 | Cathode | DC output node - feeds bulk capacitor or downstream converter; polarity must be verified to prevent catastrophic reverse bias failure. |
| 3 | Thermal Pad / Case | Electrically connected to cathode - serves as primary heat path to PCB; must be fully soldered to ≥650 mm² 4 oz. copper for rated IF(AV). |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-voltage rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vishay VS-10ETS12STHM3 | Same electrical specs but tape-and-reel orientation: 'T' = top-oriented vs. 'L' = left-oriented marking; identical D2PAK footprint and thermal performance. | No functional difference - used interchangeably in same PCB layout; orientation affects optical inspection and pick-and-place nozzle setup only. | Select VS-10ETS12SLHM3 for left-oriented tape reels compatible with standard feeder calibration; verify reel orientation before SMT line integration. |
| ON Semiconductor MUR10120CT | TO-220AC package (not surface-mount); 10 A / 1200 V; VF = 1.7 V at 10 A - 0.6 V higher than VS-10ETS12SLHM3, increasing conduction loss by ~6 W. | Requires through-hole assembly and external heatsink mounting; unsuitable for high-density SMT layouts or automotive vibration environments. | Choose only if legacy TO-220 footprint reuse is mandatory; otherwise, VS-10ETS12SLHM3 offers superior thermal efficiency and AEC-Q101 compliance. |
Compared with VS-10ETS12STHM3, VS-10ETS12SLHM3 provides identical electrical and thermal performance with left-oriented tape orientation for optimized SMT handling; versus MUR10120CT, it delivers lower VF, surface-mount compatibility, and automotive qualification - making it the preferred choice for next-generation EV and industrial power systems.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for VS-10ETS12SLHM3?
The VS-10ETS12SLHM3 has a maximum junction temperature (TJ max.) of +150 °C, validated per absolute maximum ratings. This allows continuous operation in high-ambient environments such as under-hood EV charger enclosures or sealed industrial power supplies, provided thermal design maintains junction temperature below this limit using the specified 2.5 °C/W RthJC path.
Is VS-10ETS12SLHM3 qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, VS-10ETS12SLHM3 is AEC-Q101 qualified, confirming its suitability for automotive power electronics including on-board EV battery chargers. The qualification covers temperature cycling, high-temperature reverse bias (HTRB), and mechanical shock testing - ensuring reliability under automotive-grade stress conditions.
What does the 'M3' suffix in VS-10ETS12SLHM3 indicate?
The 'M3' suffix denotes halogen-free, RoHS-compliant, and lead (Pb)-free terminations per Vishay's environmental coding. It confirms compliance with EU RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and absence of brominated flame retardants, supporting environmentally responsible manufacturing and end-of-life processing for VS-10ETS12SLHM3.
How is thermal management implemented for VS-10ETS12SLHM3 in PCB layout?
VS-10ETS12SLHM3 uses its exposed thermal pad (pin 3, electrically tied to cathode) as the primary heat path. For rated 10 A operation, the pad must be fully soldered to ≥650 mm² (1" square) of 4 oz. copper on FR-4 PCB - achieving 40 °C/W RthJA - or connected to an external heatsink via the 2.5 °C/W RthJC specification.
What is the reverse leakage current of VS-10ETS12SLHM3 at elevated temperature?
At TJ = 150 °C and rated VRRM = 1200 V, the VS-10ETS12SLHM3 exhibits a maximum reverse leakage current (IRM) of 0.5 mA. This low leakage ensures minimal standby power loss and stable DC-link voltage hold-up in high-temperature battery charging applications.
