SE30AFJHM3/6A

Single Diodes Overview

The SE30AFJHM3/6A is a surface mount standard recovery rectifier from Vishay General Semiconductor, housed in the SlimSMA (DO-221AC) package. It features a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 600 V and an average forward current rating of 3.0 A. The device exhibits a typical instantaneous forward voltage of 0.86 V at 3.0 A and 125 °C, with a maximum reverse leakage current of 10 μA at rated voltage. It supports a peak forward surge current of 40 A and operates within a junction temperature range of -55 to +175 °C.

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific ordering suffix HM3 corresponds to AEC-Q101 qualified automotive grade material categorization rather than commercial grade. Confirm the delivery mode matches the required base quantity, such as 3500 units on a 7-inch diameter plastic tape and reel. Ensure compliance with JESD 201 class 2 whisker test requirements for matte tin plated leads during procurement validation.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a 600 V blocking capability is required alongside a 3.0 A continuous current rating in a compact SlimSMA footprint. Consider the thermal resistance characteristics relative to the copper pad area on the PCB layout. Evaluate the 1.5 μs typical reverse recovery time against circuit switching speed requirements. Verify that the operating environment remains within the specified -55 to +175 °C junction temperature limits.

Single Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the SE30AF series of surface mount ESD capability rectifiers manufactured by Vishay General Semiconductor. The series includes variants with different reverse voltage ratings, specifically 100 V, 200 V, 400 V, and 600 V. All members share the same SlimSMA (DO-221AC) mechanical case and electrical characteristics regarding current handling and forward voltage drop profiles.
