ESH2BHE3/52T

Single Diodes Overview

The ESH2BHE3/52T is a fast recovery rectifier manufactured by Vishay General Semiconductor - Diodes Division. It features a SuperSectifier structure with a cavity-free glass-passivated junction for high reliability. The component operates in the SMB (DO-214AA) surface-mount package and supports an average forward current of 2 A with a maximum repetitive reverse voltage of 100 V. Key electrical parameters include a typical reverse leakage current below 0.2 μA, a peak forward surge current capability, and a fast switching speed suitable for high-efficiency applications.

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix /52T against official datasheets to confirm packaging configuration, as distributor listings may vary. Confirm RoHS compliance status and AEC-Q101 qualification requirements for automotive integration. Cross-reference the manufacturer part number directly with Vishay documentation to ensure authenticity and traceability before procurement.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component for designs requiring fast recovery times and low leakage in compact surface-mount layouts. Ensure the 100 V reverse voltage rating exceeds the circuit's peak inverse voltage. Verify that the 2 A average forward current meets load requirements including thermal derating considerations for the SMB package.

Single Diodes Part Context

This device belongs to Vishay's eSMP® series of fast recovery rectifiers. It utilizes advanced SuperSectifier technology to combine low forward voltage drop with rapid reverse recovery. The glass-passivated junction provides robust protection against mechanical stress and environmental factors, distinguishing it from standard plastic-encapsulated diodes.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

Official recommended alternatives listed in distributor data include ESH2BHE3_A/I and ESH2BHE3_A/H. Verify pinout compatibility and electrical parameter equivalence with these variants before substitution.
