Diodes Incorporated announces the introduction of an automotive-grade, high-voltage rectifier series which is housed in the compact SOD123F package. These rectifiers provide comparable electrical performance compared to a device in an SMA package, but with lower thermal resistance (R_{ӨJC-_TYP} = 13ºC/W) and a much smaller footprint (3.5 mm x 1.8 mm x 1 mm typical), which occupies 57% less PCB space than an SMA. Additionally, the exceptional thermal performance of the flat-lead package provides a more efficient, cooler running solution and improves the safe operating area of the device, even in harsh automotive environments.

The S1MSWFQ device features standard recovery time (t_{rr_TYP} = 1μs) while the RS1MSWFQ device offers fast recovery time (t_{rr_TYP} = 240 ns). In addition, these devices support high reverse breakdown voltage (V_BR = 1,000 V), low-leakage current (I_{R_MAX} = 10 μA at V_R = 1,000 V), average rectified output current (I_O = 1 A), and high peak forward surge current (I_FSM = 25 A).

Both products are suitable for reverse protection and blocking applications. With its fast reverse recovery time, the RS1MSWFQ is also suitable for switching applications.

These devices are qualified to AEC-Q101 and are supported by a PPAP. The SOD123F package is fully green and RoHS-compliant.
