ES2BA

Single Diodes Overview

The ES2BA is a single-phase, one-element silicon rectifier diode manufactured by Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation. It features a maximum average forward rectified current of 2A and a repetitive peak reverse voltage rating of 100V. The device utilizes a glass-passivated junction chip housed in a DO-214AC (SMA) surface-mount package with two terminals. Key electrical characteristics include a maximum non-repetitive peak forward surge current of 50A, a maximum forward voltage of 0.95V, and an operating temperature range from -55°C to +150°C.

Single Diodes Feature Summary

• Glass passivated junction chip construction for enhanced reliability
• Built-in strain relief mechanism integrated into the design
• High temperature soldering capability at specified terminal limits
• Plastic material carries Underwriters Laboratory classification

Single Diodes Applications

• General purpose rectification in surface mount circuits
• Efficiency-focused power supply designs
• High frequency switching applications requiring fast recovery

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes on the component marking against official datasheets to confirm exact electrical ratings and packaging variations. Ensure compliance requirements such as RoHS status match project specifications. Confirm the manufacturer source directly through authorized channels to avoid counterfeit components. Check for automotive qualification standards if the application requires AEC-Q101 certification.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a 2A current rating and 100V reverse voltage are required in a compact SMA footprint. Consider the super-fast recovery characteristics for high-frequency efficiency. Evaluate thermal management needs given the 150°C maximum junction temperature limit. Compare forward voltage drop specifications against alternative packages to ensure system efficiency targets are met.

Single Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the ES2x series of surface mount super-fast rectifiers produced by Taiwan Semiconductor. The series offers various voltage ratings within the same physical package format. These devices are designed for general-purpose rectification where space constraints and switching speed are critical factors in the circuit design.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include Diodes Incorporated ES2BA-13-F and Vishay General Semiconductor ES2BHE3_A/H. Verify pinout compatibility and electrical parameter equivalence before implementation.
