HER306GT-G

Single Diodes Overview

The HER306GT-G is a glass-passivated high-efficiency rectifier diode manufactured by Comchip Technology. It features a single-phase, one-element silicon construction housed in the DO-201AD plastic package. The device is rated for a continuous forward current of 3.0 A and offers a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 800 V. It supports a non-repetitive peak forward surge current of 125 A at 60 Hz. The component complies with RoHS standards and meets UL 94 V-0 flammability ratings for its epoxy encapsulation.

Single Diodes Feature Summary

• Glass passivation provides high reliability and stability under varying conditions
• Low forward voltage drop contributes to improved circuit efficiency
• High surge current capability ensures robustness against transient loads
• Epoxy material meets UL 94 V-0 flammability rating for safety compliance

Single Diodes Applications

• General-purpose rectification in power supply circuits
• Bridge rectifiers for AC to DC conversion
• Free-wheeling diodes in inductive load switching applications

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'G' confirms RoHS compliance and halogen-free status as per manufacturer specifications. Confirm the package code matches DO-201AD requirements for your PCB footprint. Ensure the 800V reverse voltage rating aligns with your circuit's peak inverse voltage demands. Check for any specific ordering suffixes required for tape-and-reel versus bulk packaging options directly from official distributor catalogs.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a 3A rectifier with an 800V blocking voltage is required. The DO-201AD package suits through-hole mounting applications. Consider the glass passivation for environments requiring high thermal stability. Compare the forward voltage characteristics against alternative silicon rectifiers to ensure optimal efficiency for the specific load profile.

Single Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the HER3xxGT series of high-efficiency rectifiers from Comchip Technology. The series covers various voltage ratings from 50V to 1000V while maintaining a consistent 3.0 A current capacity. These devices are designed for general-purpose use where high reliability and low forward voltage drop are critical performance factors.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other 3A, 800V glass-passivated rectifiers in the DO-201AD package. Verify pinout compatibility and thermal resistance values before substitution. Alternative brands may offer similar electrical characteristics but require validation of package dimensions and mounting hole spacing.
