US1GHE3_A/I

Single Diodes Overview

The US1GHE3_A/I is a standard recovery rectifier manufactured by Vishay General Semiconductor - Diodes Division. It features a single diode configuration housed in the DO-214AC (SMA) surface-mount package. The device supports a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 400 V and an average forward rectified current of 1 A. Key electrical parameters include a forward voltage of 1.1 V at 1 A, a reverse leakage current of 1 µA at 600 V, and a maximum reverse recovery time of 1.8 µs. It operates within a junction temperature range of -55°C to +150°C.

Single Diodes Feature Summary

• Standard recovery rectifier technology for general-purpose applications
• Automotive qualified under AEC-Q101 standards
• Lead-free construction with halogen-free molding compound

Single Diodes Applications

• General purpose rectification in consumer electronics
• DC power supply circuits
• Automotive electronic systems requiring AEC-Q101 compliance

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix /I against official Vishay documentation to confirm tape-and-reel packaging specifications. Ensure the component matches the required 400V rating and SMA package dimensions for your PCB layout. Confirm RoHS and REACH compliance status through the manufacturer's latest environmental declaration before finalizing procurement orders.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a 400V standard recovery diode with 1A continuous current capability is required in a compact SMA package. The AEC-Q101 qualification makes it suitable for automotive environments. Consider the 1.8µs reverse recovery time for switching frequency limitations compared to ultra-fast alternatives.

Single Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the S1x series of standard recovery rectifiers from Vishay. It utilizes the DO-214AC (SMA) surface-mount package, offering a compact footprint for high-volume manufacturing. The series provides various voltage ratings within the same physical housing to simplify inventory management for designers.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other Vishay SMA packages such as S1G-E3 or S1G-M3 for equivalent electrical performance. Verify that substitute parts maintain the same AEC-Q101 automotive qualification if used in regulated automotive applications.
