SS14-6HE3_B/I

Single Diodes Overview

The SS14-6HE3_B/I is a surface-mount Schottky barrier rectifier manufactured by Vishay General Semiconductor - Diodes Division. It features a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 40 V and an average forward rectified current of 1 A. The device utilizes a DO-214AC (SMA) package and exhibits a low forward voltage drop of 500 mV at 1 A. It is qualified to AEC-Q101 standards for automotive applications and operates within a junction temperature range of -65°C to 150°C.

Single Diodes Feature Summary

• Schottky barrier technology ensures high switching efficiency and minimal energy loss during operation.
• AEC-Q101 qualification confirms suitability for demanding automotive electronic environments.
• Low forward voltage drop reduces power dissipation and improves overall system thermal performance.

Single Diodes Applications

• Automotive electronics requiring robust rectification
• DC-DC converter circuits
• Free-wheeling diodes in inductive load protection

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix B/I against official datasheets to confirm package and marking details. Ensure compliance with RoHS directives if required by your manufacturing process. Confirm availability status as supply conditions may vary. Cross-reference the manufacturer part number with authorized distributors to prevent counterfeit components. Validate that the component meets all relevant automotive quality standards before integration.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a 40 V reverse voltage rating and 1 A continuous current capacity are required in a compact SMA package. The Schottky construction makes it ideal for high-frequency applications where low forward voltage and fast recovery characteristics are critical. Consider the AEC-Q101 qualification if the design targets automotive reliability standards over general consumer electronics.

Single Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the SS14 series of Schottky rectifiers from Vishay. The series is designed for general-purpose rectification in space-constrained surface-mount applications. The HE3 variant indicates enhanced environmental compliance and improved thermal stability compared to standard versions, aligning with modern manufacturing requirements for lead-free processes.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

SS14-6HE3_A/H is a documented alternative within the same product family. Verify pinout compatibility and electrical parameter equivalence before substitution. Ensure the replacement maintains the required AEC-Q101 qualification if used in automotive contexts.
