BYM07-100HE3/83

Overview

The BYM07-100HE3/83 is a surface-mount ultrafast rectifier manufactured by Vishay General Semiconductor. It utilizes a Superectifier structure with a cavity-free glass-passivated junction housed in the GL34 (DO-213AA) package. The device provides a maximum average forward rectified current of 0.5 A and a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 100 V. Key electrical characteristics include an ultrafast reverse recovery time of 50 ns, a maximum instantaneous forward voltage of 1.35 V at 0.5 A, and a peak forward surge current capability of 10 A. It operates within a junction temperature range of -65 °C to +175 °C.

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix /83 against official documentation to confirm the delivery mode and base quantity. The datasheet indicates that EGL34B-E3/83 corresponds to a 13-inch diameter plastic tape and reel with a base quantity of 9000 units. Ensure the component meets RoHS compliance requirements as specified for the E3 suffix. Cross-reference the manufacturer part number with authorized distributors to confirm availability and authenticity before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component for designs requiring fast switching speeds and low reverse recovery charge in compact surface-mount layouts. The 100 V rating suits low-voltage DC-DC conversion stages. Verify thermal management capabilities based on the specified thermal resistance values. Confirm compatibility with automated placement processes due to the GL34 package design. Evaluate the 0.5 A current limit against peak load requirements to ensure adequate margin.

Part Context

This device belongs to the BYM07 series of ultrafast rectifiers from Vishay. The series offers various voltage ratings ranging from 50 V to 400 V within the same GL34 package footprint. The EGL34B designation specifically identifies the 100 V variant within this family. These components are designed to replace standard recovery diodes in high-frequency applications where efficiency and speed are critical.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same voltage and current class include other BYM07 variants such as BYM07-50 or BYM07-150 if voltage margins allow. Check equivalent offerings from other manufacturers in the DO-213AA package with matching 50 ns recovery times.
