V12PM103-M3/H

Single Diodes Overview

The V12PM103-M3/H is a high current density surface-mount TMBS rectifier manufactured by Vishay. It features an SMPC (TO-277A) package and operates with a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 100 V and a maximum DC forward current of 12 A. The device exhibits ultra-low forward voltage, typically 0.45 V at 6 A and 0.54 V at 12 A when the junction temperature is 125 °C. It supports a peak forward surge current of 200 A and functions within an operating junction temperature range of -40 to +175 °C.

Single Diodes Feature Summary

• Utilizes Trench MOS Schottky technology for low forward voltage drop and reduced power losses
• Features a very low profile typical height of 1.1 mm suitable for automated placement
• Complies with J-STD-020 MSL level 1 standards and withstands a maximum peak reflow temperature of 260 °C

Single Diodes Applications

• Low voltage high frequency inverters
• Freewheeling applications
• DC/DC converters
• Polarity protection circuits

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix to confirm delivery mode and base quantity. The /H suffix indicates a 1500-unit base quantity delivered in a 7-inch diameter plastic tape and reel. Confirm that the component meets halogen-free and RoHS compliance requirements as specified for the commercial grade designation.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component for designs requiring high efficiency operation and robust thermal performance in compact surface-mount layouts. Ensure the application PCB pad area matches the recommended dimensions to achieve the specified thermal resistance values. Validate the forward voltage characteristics against the expected operating junction temperatures to guarantee adequate power loss margins.

Single Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the eSMP series of high current density surface-mount rectifiers from Vishay General Semiconductor. It represents a specialized variant optimized for ultra-low forward voltage characteristics compared to standard Schottky diodes. The device is designed specifically for demanding power conversion applications where space constraints and thermal management are critical design factors.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

The V12PM103HM3/H serves as the automotive qualified alternative within the same series. Verify if AEC-Q101 qualification is required for the target application before substituting between the commercial and automotive grades.
