SFAF502GH

Single Diodes Overview

The SFAF502GH is a single-phase, one-element silicon rectifier diode manufactured by Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation. It features an ITO-220AC (TO-220AC) flange mount package with two terminals and an isolated case connection. The device has a maximum repetitive reverse voltage of 100V and supports a continuous forward current of 5A. Key electrical parameters include a maximum non-repetitive peak forward surge current of 125A, a maximum forward voltage of 0.975V, and an operating temperature range from -65°C to 150°C.

Single Diodes Feature Summary

• Glass passivated junction for high reliability
• Low forward voltage drop for high efficiency
• High surge current capability
• Low power loss design

Single Diodes Applications

• Low voltage high frequency inverters
• Free wheeling applications
• Polarity protection circuits

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'G' indicates compliance with RoHS standards and confirms the use of green compound packaging as documented for this series. Ensure the ordering part number matches the exact voltage rating required, as the SFAF50xG series spans multiple reverse voltage options. Confirm the manufacturer source is Taiwan Semiconductor to guarantee the specified glass passivation and UL recognition status.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component for designs requiring a robust, isolated super fast rectifier in an ITO-220AC package. The 100V rating suits low-voltage DC-DC converters and synchronous rectification. Consider the thermal management requirements associated with the 5A current capacity and the 0.975V forward voltage drop at rated load conditions.

Single Diodes Part Context

This component belongs to the SFAF50xG series of 5.0 Ampere Isolated Glass Passivated Super Fast Rectifiers. The series utilizes an ITO-220AC molded plastic case with pure tin plated, lead-free terminals. The 'G' designation typically signifies environmental compliance and specific packaging attributes defined by the manufacturer.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other SFAF50xG variants such as SFAF503GD0 or SFAF504GHC0G if different reverse voltage ratings are needed. Verify that any substitute maintains the ITO-220AC package and glass passivation characteristics.
