FR154G

Single Diodes Overview

The FR154G is a fast recovery glass passivated rectifier manufactured by SMC Diode Solutions. It features a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 1000 V and an average forward rectified current of 1.5 A. The device utilizes a DO-204AC (DO-15) axial through-hole package. Key electrical characteristics include a maximum DC blocking voltage of 1000 V, a maximum RMS voltage of 700 V, and a peak forward surge current capability of 40 A under specified conditions. The junction temperature range extends from -65°C to 150°C.

Single Diodes Feature Summary

• Glass passivation provides mechanical strength and stability against moisture and chemical environments.
• Fast recovery characteristics enable efficient operation in high-frequency switching applications.
• High surge current capability supports robust performance during transient load events.

Single Diodes Applications

• General purpose rectification in power supply circuits
• Inverter and converter topologies requiring fast switching
• Free-wheeling diodes in inductive load protection

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix and manufacturer documentation to confirm compliance with RoHS3 and REACH regulations. Ensure the ordering information matches the required voltage and current ratings for the target application. Cross-reference datasheet revisions to validate thermal and electrical specifications before integration into final designs.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a standard 1.5 A rectifier requires faster recovery times than general-purpose silicon diodes offer. The DO-15 package suits applications needing higher current handling than smaller axial packages while maintaining through-hole mounting compatibility. Evaluate thermal management requirements based on the specified junction temperature limits.

Single Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the FR15xG series of fast recovery rectifiers produced by SMC Diode Solutions. The series covers various reverse voltage ratings from 50 V to 1000 V, all sharing the same 1.5 A current rating and DO-15 package form factor. This family is designed for general-purpose high-speed rectification tasks.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

Equivalent parts include the FR154 from other manufacturers such as Rectron or Taiwan Semiconductor, provided they meet the 1000V/1.5A/DO-15 specification. Verify pinout compatibility and reverse recovery time parameters when substituting.
