Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering code to confirm AEC-Q101 qualification status, as indicated by the HM3 suffix. Ensure compatibility with standard SMD/SMT assembly processes. Confirm compliance requirements against JESD 201 class 2 whisker test standards. Validate thermal management designs against the specified junction-to-ambient thermal resistance values provided in the datasheet.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring high efficiency and low forward voltage drop at elevated temperatures. The SlimDPAK package offers a compact footprint suitable for space-constrained designs. Consider the 200 A surge current rating for transient load conditions. Verify that the operating junction temperature does not exceed the maximum limit of 175 °C under full load conditions.

Single Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the eSMP® series of high current density surface-mount rectifiers from Vishay. It represents an evolution in Trench MOS Barrier Schottky technology, offering improved performance over standard Schottky diodes. The SlimDPAK package provides enhanced thermal dissipation capabilities compared to traditional TO-252 packages, making it suitable for high-power density applications.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements should match the 200 V reverse voltage, 20 A forward current, and SlimDPAK (TO-252AE) package dimensions. Verify thermal characteristics and forward voltage specifications to ensure equivalent performance. Check for AEC-Q101 qualification if automotive reliability is required.
