S5M V7G

Single Diodes Overview

The S5M V7G is a single standard recovery rectifier manufactured by Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation. It features a maximum average forward rectified current of 5 A and a repetitive peak reverse voltage of 1000 V. The device utilizes the DO-214AB (SMC) surface-mount package. Key electrical parameters include a maximum forward voltage of 1.15 V at rated current, a non-repetitive peak forward surge current of 100 A, and a maximum reverse leakage current of 10 uA. The junction recovery time is specified at 1.5 us. It operates within a temperature range of -55 C to +150 C.

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix configuration against the manufacturer's latest datasheet to ensure compatibility with your design requirements. Confirm RoHS compliance status directly with the supplier or original equipment manufacturer prior to procurement. Check for any recent part number revisions or lifecycle notices that may affect long-term availability. Ensure storage conditions adhere to semiconductor handling standards to prevent moisture sensitivity issues before reflow soldering.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a high-voltage, single-phase rectifier is required in a compact surface-mount footprint. The 1000 V rating suits mains-connected or high-inductive load applications. Compare the 1.15 V forward voltage drop against thermal management constraints in your enclosure. Verify that the 100 A surge rating exceeds the inrush currents present in your specific circuit topology during startup phases.

Single Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the general-purpose rectifier category from Taiwan Semiconductor. It shares the DO-214AB mechanical outline with other variants in the series but differs in voltage and current ratings. The V7G suffix typically denotes tape and reel packaging for high-volume manufacturing processes. It serves as a discrete solution for power conversion stages where through-hole mounting is not feasible.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with HS3M V7G for similar form-factor alternatives if voltage ratings allow. Verify pinout compatibility and thermal resistance characteristics before substituting. Ensure the replacement device meets or exceeds the 1000 V reverse voltage and 5 A current specifications.
