Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering code suffix against the manufacturer's documentation to confirm packaging quantity and delivery mode. Ensure that the selected variant meets the required environmental compliance standards, such as RoHS or AEC-Q101 qualification if intended for automotive use. Cross-reference the base part number with official Vishay resources to validate technical specifications before finalizing procurement decisions.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when designing circuits requiring fast switching speeds and low conduction losses. The 200 V reverse voltage rating makes it suitable for medium-voltage DC-DC conversion stages. Consider the thermal resistance values provided in the datasheet to determine appropriate heat dissipation strategies for the SMB package within the target application environment.

Single Diodes Part Context

This component belongs to the ESH2B, ESH2C, and ESH2D series of surface-mount ultrafast plastic rectifiers. The series offers varying reverse voltage ratings while maintaining consistent current handling and recovery time characteristics. These devices are engineered for automated placement and are available in standard tape and reel formats to facilitate efficient manufacturing processes.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same family include ESH2B-E3/52T and ESH2C-E3/52T, which share identical physical dimensions and electrical performance except for their maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage ratings.
