Vishay Silicon Junction Switching Diode 2 A 100 V DO-204AC Through Hole UG2B-E3/54

Vishay UG2B-E3/54 Silicon Junction Switching Diode is a single diode rated for a maximum forward current of 2 amperes and peak reverse voltage of 100 volts. Encapsulated in a DO-204AC through-hole package, it features a glass passivated chip junction that enhances reliability and longevity.

This diode exhibits an ultrafast reverse recovery time of 15 nanoseconds, which minimizes switching losses and makes it suitable for high frequency applications such as switching mode power converters and inverter circuits commonly used in consumer electronics, computer hardware, and telecommunications.

The device supports a high forward surge current of up to 80 amperes non-repetitive, ensuring resilience against transient current spikes. Its forward voltage drop is low at 950 millivolts, thereby improving energy efficiency in power circuits.

Mechanically, the diode’s DO-201AD case complies with UL 94 V-0 flammability standards, and the leads are matte tin-plated, ensuring dependable solderability per J-STD-002 standards. The cathode end of the diode is clearly marked with a color band for correct orientation during installation.

Operating temperature range is broad, from -55 to 150 degrees Celsius, allowing for use in industrial and commercial environments with demanding thermal conditions. Glass passivated chip junction ensures durability and stable performance.

Ultrafast reverse recovery time of 15 nanoseconds improves switching efficiency. Low forward voltage drop of 950 millivolts reduces power loss. High forward surge capability of 80 amperes peak non-repetitive current. Wide operating temperature range supports harsh environments from -55°C to 150°C.

Matte tin-plated leads provide reliable solderability and corrosion resistance. Color band denotes cathode end for polarity identification. Encapsulated in a DO-204AC (DO-201AD) package meeting UL 94 V-0 flammability rating.

Suitable for use in switching mode converters, inverters, consumer, computer, and telecommunication electronics.
