RS2G R5G

Single Diodes Overview

The RS2G R5G is a fast recovery rectifier manufactured by Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation. It features a single-phase configuration housed in the DO-214AA surface-mount package. Key electrical parameters include a maximum average forward rectified current of 2 A and a peak repetitive reverse voltage of 400 V. The device exhibits a forward voltage of 1.3 V, a reverse leakage current of 5 μA, and a reverse recovery time of 150 ns.

Single Diodes Feature Summary

• Fast recovery performance with a 150 ns reverse recovery time
• Glass passivated chip junction for enhanced reliability
• Low forward voltage drop to minimize power loss
• High surge current capability for robust operation

Single Diodes Applications

• Surface mounted applications requiring high efficiency
• General purpose rectification circuits
• DC-DC converter output stages

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix R5G against official datasheets to confirm packaging details such as reel or cut tape specifications. Ensure compliance with RoHS and REACH requirements matches project constraints. Confirm lead times and availability directly with authorized distributors as stock levels fluctuate. Validate that the DO-214AA footprint aligns with PCB design guidelines before finalizing procurement orders.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component for designs requiring a balance of high current handling and fast switching speeds in a compact SMD form factor. The 400 V rating suits medium-voltage AC-DC conversion tasks. Compare the 150 ns recovery time against slower standard recovery diodes if switching frequency demands are high. Ensure thermal management accounts for the 1.3 V forward voltage drop at full load currents.

Single Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the S2A-S2M series of 2.0 Ampere surface mount rectifiers from Taiwan Semiconductor. These devices utilize glass passivation technology to protect the silicon junction. The series is designed for automated pick-and-place assembly processes. The DO-214AA package provides a compact solution for space-constrained electronic designs.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other 2A 400V fast recovery rectifiers in the DO-214AA package. Verify pinout compatibility and thermal characteristics when substituting. Check if alternative manufacturers offer similar reverse recovery times and forward voltage drops.
