The 41 ns typical reverse recovery time (trr) sets the switching loss in a hard-switched bridge leg — at a 20 kHz PWM carrier, the recovery charge dominates the turn-off energy, and this diode's soft-recovery characteristic limits the voltage overshoot across the complementary switch. The 2.1 V forward drop at 30 A produces 63 W conduction loss — a 2 oz copper pad on a four-layer board with thermal vias to the inner planes is the minimum thermal management for continuous operation above 85°C ambient. ## AEC-Q101 qualification and the PPAP trail The part carries AEC-Q101 qualification as part of the FRED Pt G5 series — this is the automotive discrete semiconductor stress test: high-temperature reverse bias (HTRB), temperature cycling, and solder-joint reliability are documented in the PPAP package. The OEM auditor will ask for the PPAP level (typically PPAP Level 3 for a safety-related ECU); Vishay provides the qualification summary and the PCN notification channel for any process change. ## Reverse leakage and the thermal derating decision The 20 µA reverse leakage at 600 V is specified at 25°C junction — this doubles approximately every 10°C, so at a 150°C junction the leakage is in the 200–300 µA range. In a 30 A circuit the off-state loss is still below 200 mW, but in a high-impedance node (e.g., a bootstrap supply) the leakage may pull down the bias rail if the upstream source impedance is above 10 kΩ. The fast-recovery speed classification (≤500 ns, >200 mA) tells the designer this is a soft-recovery diode, not an ultrafast or SiC Schottky. The turn-off di/dt must be controlled with a gate resistor in the companion MOSFET — a di/dt above 200 A/µs can trigger the diode's snap-off and cause parasitic ringing on the switching node.","metaTitle":"VS-E5TX3006S2LHM3 Vishay FRED Pt G5 Diode, 30A 600V","metaDescription":"Vishay VS-E5TX3006S2LHM3 AEC-Q101 FRED Pt G5 rectifier, 30A 600V, 41ns trr, TO-263AB D²PAK.
