ES2H

Single Diodes Overview

The ES2H is a super fast recovery rectifier manufactured by Taiwan Semiconductor, rated for a repetitive peak reverse voltage of 500 V and an average forward current of 2 A. It utilizes a glass passivated chip junction within a DO-214AA (SMB) surface mount package. The device features a maximum reverse recovery time of 35 ns and a typical forward voltage of 1.70 V at 2 A. It supports a junction temperature range from -55°C to +150°C and withstands a surge peak forward current of 50 A.

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering code suffix against the manufacturer's official documentation to confirm packaging type and quantity. Confirm RoHS compliance and halogen-free status requirements with the supplier. Ensure the component meets JESD 201 class 2 whisker test standards if required for your assembly process. Check moisture sensitivity level ratings prior to soldering.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a 500 V blocking capability is required in a SMB package. The 35 ns recovery time makes it suitable for high-frequency switching applications. Compare forward voltage drop specifications against thermal management constraints. Verify that the 2 A continuous current rating aligns with the circuit load requirements under expected operating temperatures.

Single Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the ES2A through ES2J series of super fast surface mount rectifiers. The series covers voltage ratings from 50 V to 600 V while maintaining a consistent 2 A current capacity. All variants share the same DO-214AA package and mechanical dimensions, differing primarily in their reverse voltage breakdown capabilities.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other SMB packaged super fast rectifiers offering 500 V minimum reverse voltage and 2 A forward current. Ensure replacement parts match the 35 ns maximum reverse recovery time specification. Verify compatibility with existing PCB pad layouts for the DO-214AA footprint.
