BYG20J-7001HE3_A/I

Overview

The BYG20J-7001HE3_A/I is a fast recovery rectifier from Vishay Semiconductors, designed for surface mount applications in the DO-214AC (SMA) package. It features a single diode configuration with a maximum average forward rectified current of 1.5 A and a repetitive peak reverse voltage of 600 V. The device exhibits a typical reverse recovery time of 75 ns and a low non-repetitive peak forward surge current capability of 30 A. Operating within a temperature range of -55°C to +150°C junction temperature, it meets AEC-Q101 qualification standards for automotive reliability.

Feature Summary

• Fast recovery characteristics suitable for high-frequency switching applications
• Glass passivated junction provides enhanced mechanical stability and long-term reliability
• AEC-Q101 qualified for use in demanding automotive electronic environments

Applications

• Automotive power supply circuits requiring high reliability
• High-speed DC-DC converter output rectification
• General purpose rectification in surface mount designs

Procurement Notes

Verify the exact part number against official Vishay documentation, as suffixes like HE3 indicate lead-free status and specific packaging configurations. Confirm that the DO-214AC footprint matches your PCB design requirements. Ensure compliance with RoHS directives if required by your manufacturing process. Cross-reference the AEC-Q101 certification details directly with the manufacturer's datasheet to validate automotive grade specifications.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 600V rating and 1.5A continuous current are required in a compact SMA package. The 75ns reverse recovery time makes it appropriate for faster switching frequencies compared to standard rectifiers. Consider the thermal management capabilities of the DO-214AC package for your specific power dissipation needs. Verify that the soft recovery characteristics align with your circuit's EMI constraints.
