MURA160T3G

Single Diodes Overview

The onsemi MURA160T3G is a surface-mount ultra-fast recovery power rectifier housed in an SMA (DO-214AC) package. It supports a peak repetitive reverse voltage of 600 V and provides an average rectified forward current of 1.0 A at a lead temperature of 145°C, or 2.0 A at 110°C. The device features a maximum reverse recovery time of 75 ns and a non-repetitive peak surge current rating of 30 A. Operating junction temperatures range from -65°C to +175°C.

Single Diodes Feature Summary

• Ultra-fast recovery characteristics suitable for high-frequency applications
• High temperature glass passivated junction for thermal stability
• Small compact surface mountable package with J-bend leads
• Automotive qualified with NRVUA and SURA8 prefixes available

Single Diodes Applications

• High voltage, high frequency rectification
• Free wheeling diodes in surface mount systems
• Protection diodes where compact size and weight are critical

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against official documentation to confirm compliance requirements. The standard MURA160T3G designation indicates a Pb-free, Halogen-free/BFR-free, and RoHS-compliant component. Prefixes such as NRVUA160VT3G or SURA8160T3G denote automotive qualification and unique site control changes; ensure these variants match project specifications before procurement.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when designing circuits requiring fast switching speeds and high voltage blocking capabilities in a small footprint. The 600 V rating accommodates standard mains voltages, while the 75 ns recovery time minimizes switching losses. Ensure adequate thermal management is provided, as the average forward current derates significantly based on ambient temperature and lead temperature constraints.

Single Diodes Part Context

This device belongs to the MURA series of ultra-fast recovery rectifiers manufactured by onsemi. It utilizes epitaxial construction and metal overlay contacts to achieve low forward voltage drop and high reliability. The product line is designed to replace bulkier through-hole alternatives in modern electronics manufacturing.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same family include the MUR160T3G and MURS160T3G. Automotive-specific equivalents are available under the NRVUA160V and SURA8160 designations.
