VSSAF5103HM3/I

Single Diodes Overview

The VSSAF5103HM3/I is a surface-mount Trench MOS Barrier Schottky (TMBS) rectifier manufactured by Vishay. It features a SlimSMA (DO-221AC) package and provides a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 100 V with an average forward current rating of 5 A. The device exhibits a low forward voltage drop, typically 0.59 V at 5 A and 125 °C, and supports a peak forward surge current of 100 A. It operates within a junction temperature range of -40 to +150 °C.

Single Diodes Feature Summary

• Utilizes Trench MOS Schottky technology for high efficiency and low power losses
• Features a very low profile typical height of 0.95 mm suitable for automated placement
• Halogen-free and RoHS-compliant construction

Single Diodes Applications

• High frequency inverters
• Freewheeling circuits
• DC/DC converters
• Polarity protection in commercial, industrial, and automotive applications

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering code suffix against official documentation to confirm compliance requirements. The 'I' suffix indicates delivery in a 13-inch diameter plastic tape and reel format. Confirm that the HM3 designation aligns with required halogen-free and AEC-Q101 qualification standards for the intended application environment.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact surface-mount Schottky rectifier is required for high-frequency switching applications. The SlimSMA package offers a small footprint while maintaining a 5 A current capability. Ensure the thermal design accommodates the specified junction-to-ambient resistance values under expected operating conditions.

Single Diodes Part Context

This device belongs to the eSMP series of surface-mount TMBS rectifiers from Vishay General Semiconductor. It is designed as a lead-free alternative to standard diodes, offering improved thermal performance and reliability compared to conventional planar technologies. The product line targets modern electronics requiring efficient power conversion in constrained spaces.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements must match the SlimSMA (DO-221AC) package outline and electrical ratings. Verify pinout compatibility and ensure substitute components meet the same thermal and voltage specifications.
