SUF15J-E3/54

Single Diodes Overview

The SUF15J-E3/54 is an ultrafast plastic rectifier manufactured by Vishay General Semiconductor. It features a glass passivated chip junction and operates with a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 600 V and a maximum average forward rectified current of 1.5 A at 50 °C. The device exhibits a typical reverse recovery time of 35 ns and a maximum instantaneous forward voltage of 1.8 V at 1.5 A. It supports a peak forward surge current of 50 A and functions within a temperature range of -55 to +150 °C. Packaged in the GP20 axial leaded format, it utilizes matte tin-plated leads for solderability.

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific part number suffix to confirm packaging configuration. The /54 designation indicates delivery on a 13-inch diameter paper tape and reel with a base quantity of 1400 units. Confirm that the component meets RoHS 2002/95/EC standards and passes JESD 201 class 1A whisker testing requirements before finalizing procurement specifications.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when circuit designs require fast recovery times around 35 ns combined with a 600 V blocking voltage rating. Ensure thermal management accommodates the specified operating junction temperature up to 150 °C. Verify that the 1.5 A continuous current rating aligns with the load requirements under expected ambient temperature conditions.

Single Diodes Part Context

This component belongs to the SUF15 series of ultrafast plastic rectifiers from Vishay. The series includes variants such as the SUF15G, which shares identical electrical characteristics but offers a lower 400 V reverse voltage rating. Both variants utilize the same GP20 package and are engineered for similar high-frequency rectification tasks.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

The SUF15G-E3/54 serves as a direct substitute if the application voltage does not exceed 400 V. Other ultrafast rectifiers must be evaluated based on matching reverse recovery time, forward current capacity, and package dimensions.
