VS-10ETF02STRL-M3

Single Diodes Overview

The VS-10ETF02STRL-M3 is a surface mount fast soft recovery rectifier diode manufactured by Vishay Semiconductors. It features a glass passivated pellet chip junction and operates in a D2PAK (TO-263AB) package with a base cathode configuration. The device supports a maximum average forward current of 10 A and a peak repetitive reverse voltage of 200 V. Key electrical characteristics include a maximum forward voltage drop of 1.2 V at 10 A, a reverse recovery time of 50 ns, and a snap factor of 0.6. It withstands a non-repetitive surge current of 140 A and functions within a junction temperature range of -40 to +150 °C.

Single Diodes Feature Summary

• Optimized for combined short reverse recovery time and low forward voltage drop
• Glass passivation ensures stable reliable operation under severe temperature and power cycling conditions
• Meets MSL level 1 per J-STD-020 with LF maximum peak of 245 °C

Single Diodes Applications

• Output rectification and freewheeling in inverters, choppers and converters
• Input rectifications where severe restrictions on conducted EMI should be met

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix 'TRL' corresponds to the left-oriented tape and reel packaging format required for your automated assembly line. Confirm that the 200 V rating aligns with your circuit's maximum peak reverse voltage requirements. Ensure thermal management design accounts for the specified junction-to-case thermal resistance during high-current operation.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when designing circuits requiring fast soft recovery characteristics to minimize switching losses and electromagnetic interference. The D2PAK package provides robust thermal performance for surface mount applications. Consider the 10 A continuous current capability and 200 V blocking voltage as primary constraints for system voltage and load current specifications.

Single Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the VS-10ETF..S-M3 series of fast soft recovery rectifiers from Vishay Semiconductors. The series includes variants with different voltage ratings, specifically 200 V, 400 V, and 600 V options. All members share identical current ratings, package styles, and recovery characteristics, differing primarily in their maximum repetitive reverse voltage capabilities.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same series include VS-10ETF04STRL-M3 (400 V) and VS-10ETF06STRL-M3 (600 V), provided the higher voltage ratings are acceptable for the application.
