Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix M4G against the manufacturer's latest datasheet to confirm packaging details and compliance status. Confirm availability directly with Taiwan Semiconductor or authorized distributors as stock levels fluctuate. Ensure the ordering code matches the required reel quantity and tape specifications for automated assembly processes.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a 100 V blocking capability and 2 A continuous current are required in a compact SMB-2 footprint. The super fast recovery characteristic makes it suitable for high-frequency applications where minimizing switching losses is critical. Compare thermal resistance and package dimensions against alternative SMB-2 rectifiers if space constraints exist.

Single Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the ES2x series of surface mount super fast recovery rectifiers from Taiwan Semiconductor. The series offers various voltage ratings while maintaining consistent 2 A current handling and 35 ns recovery times across different models. The ES2B variant specifically targets lower voltage applications within this high-speed rectification family.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other SMB-2 packaged super fast recovery rectifiers offering 100 V and 2 A ratings. Verify that substitute components match the 35 ns recovery time and 950 mV forward voltage specifications to ensure circuit compatibility.
