The tab is the anode or cathode connection depending on the internal die orientation — the footprint copper area under the tab sets the junction-to-board thermal resistance, so the board layout directly determines the current derating at elevated ambient. Rated for a junction temperature range of -55°C to 175°C, this diode can sit in an engine-bay ECU or a high-side switch on a hot chassis rail without hitting the thermal ceiling, provided the PCB copper pours the tab heat into a thermal via array. ## Switching speed — 47 ns reverse recovery The headline recovery time is 47 ns (trr), placing it in the fast-recovery class (≤500 ns, >200 mA). That 47 ns figure means the diode clears stored charge quickly when the polarity reverses — a critical parameter in a continuous-conduction boost converter or a motor-drive freewheel leg where slow recovery adds switching loss and voltage overshoot across the FET. In a 100 kHz PFC stage, the 47 ns trr keeps the reverse-recovery charge low enough that the SiC competitor is not mandatory for the efficiency target. ## Automotive-grade qualification and compliance This part belongs to Vishay's FRED Pt® G5 series and carries AEC-Q101 qualification — the automotive discrete semiconductor stress test covering temperature cycling, high-temperature reverse bias, and ESD robustness. The AEC-Q101 stamp means the die and package survive the -55°C to 175°C swing and the vibration profile of a transmission-mounted or under-hood module.","metaTitle":"Vishay VS-E5TH2106S2LHM3 FRED Pt G5, 20A 600V, TO-263AB","metaDescription":"Vishay VS-E5TH2106S2LHM3, 20A 600V FRED Pt G5 ultrafast diode in TO-263AB (D²PAK). 47 ns trr, AEC-Q101 qualified.
