Vishay 400 V 3 A General Purpose 2-Pin Diode Surface Mount DO-214AB RS3G-E3/57T

Vishay RS3G-E3/57T is a high-efficiency general purpose diode designed for use in power electronics, automotive, and industrial applications. It is packaged in a surface mount DO-214AB (SMC) housing, providing compact size and easy PCB integration.

With a maximum continuous forward current of 3 A and a peak reverse voltage of 400 V, this diode is ideal for rectification and switching tasks that demand reliable performance and fast recovery.

The diode features a low maximum forward voltage drop of 1.3 V, ensuring energy-efficient operation and minimizing heat generation in high-frequency circuits. It also has a peak reverse recovery time of 150 ns which contributes to higher switching speeds and reduced switching losses.

It operates over an extensive temperature range from -55°C to 150°C, ensuring durability under harsh environmental conditions often encountered in automotive and industrial settings. The device conforms to the automotive standard AEC-Q101, indicating its suitability for automotive electronics requiring stringent quality and reliability.

Its physical dimensions - 7.11 mm length, 6.22 mm width, and 2.42 mm height - make it suitable for compact electronic assemblies. The diode’s peak non-repetitive forward surge current rating of 100 A provides resilience against transient current peaks commonly arising during power surges or switching events.

Fast recovery with 150 ns peak reverse recovery time enhances switching performance. Maximum forward voltage of 1.3 V reduces conduction losses. Wide operating temperature range ensures application flexibility. Compliant with automotive AEC-Q101 standard for high reliability.

Compact DO-214AB package enables efficient PCB layout. Peak surge current capability supports transient tolerance. Low leakage current minimizes power loss and heat generation.

This diode is suitable for use in general power rectification, inverter circuits, freewheeling diodes in motor drives, and power supply designs requiring robust, fast switching components.
