Taiwan Semiconductor, a global supplier of discrete power electronics devices, LED drivers, analog ICs, and ESD protection devices, announces the availability of the PU1xMx/PU2xMx families of fast recovery epitaxial diodes. These high-reliability (AEC-Q101 qualified) FREDs offer optimized switching speed vs. reverse recovery time. Their soft reverse recovery results in lower noise switching while achieving low losses and increased efficiency. The Micro SMA package heat spreader contacts provide excellent heat transfer.
“TSC’s FRED devices offer an unparalleled combination of small footprint, fast switching speed, low parasitic capacitance, and low leakage,” said Vice President, TSC Products, Sam Wang. “In terms of price, performance, and package, our FREDs set a new benchmark for the industry.”
The PUxxMx Families provides a number of beneficial features:
- Fast Switching and Reverse Recovery Times – Increases efficiency in a wide range of power electronics designs from medium-voltage to high-voltage applications, lowers EMI and RFI, and simplifies snubber and filtering design.
- Low Reverse Leakage – Industry-leading maximum IR (1 µA @ Tj=25°C) improves efficiency and offers a more controlled switching response between forward and reverse conduction modes.
- Low Reverse Recovery Charge –Maximum QRR (40 nC @ IF=0.5A, IR=1.0A, IRR=0.25A) lowers parasitic ringing and EMC reduces the need for snubbers. Increases switching speed and lowers losses.
- AEC-Q Automotive Qualified Available – All parts in the family meet stringent automotive reliability and performance criteria – Production Part Approval Process (PPAP) documentation is available.
- Global Materials Compliance – RoHS compliant, halogen-free (per IEC-61249-2-21), WEEE, REACH, California Prop. 65, JESD-201 Class 2 Whisker Test, and others.
- Small Surface Mount Micro SMA Package – Ideal for automated placement. Low-profile packaging with heat-spreader contacts provides excellent thermal management.
Applications include automotive alternator charging regulators in 12-, 24- to 28-, and 48-volt systems; POE power, protection, and blocking circuitry; general-purpose switching power, snubber circuits, antiparallel diodes in high-frequency switching circuits; freewheeling diode in converters, chargers, and motor control circuits.

Taiwan Semiconductor, a global supplier of discrete power electronics devices, LED drivers, analog ICs, and ESD protection devices, announces the availability of the GBU150x family of standard bridge rectifiers. These GBU-packaged, 15A-rated rectifiers are available with peak repetitive reverse voltage ratings (VRRM) from 600V to 1000V and 1.0ms peak forward surge current (IFSM) of 600A. The highest-rated (1KV) device, offered at the same price in production quantities as the others in the family, provides an added design margin that can facilitate meeting regulatory standards, such as IEC61000-4-x and IEEE C62.XX ringing waveform requirements, in a wide range of mains-connected power conversion products.
“Since higher-voltage bridge rectifiers typically are more expensive, engineers trained to optimize price and performance will select 600V or 800V PIV devices to achieve cost targets,” said Vice President, TSC Products, Sam Wang. “The GBU1507, with an industry-leading 1000-volt PIV rating, is offered at the same price as the lower-voltage-rated parts in the series. This gives engineers a cost-effective opportunity to add safety margin for new designs as well as upgrade existing GBU sockets.
The devices in the GBU150x Series provide a number of beneficial features, including:
- Very-High Peak Forward Surge Current – With computing everywhere and electronic lighting replacing electrical lighting, transient and surge survival is a top-of-mind consideration.
- UL-Recognized File # E-326243 – UL-recognized components simplify agency approvals on the customers’ end products, saving time and money.
- Standard GBU Package – Meets or exceeds operational specs of competitive devices; offers a drop-in upgrade for existing GBU sockets for requirements from 50 volts to 1000 volts.
- one part can replace many others
- simplifies a number of stocked SKUs and reduces BOM costs
- Industry-Leading 1000V Rating – Added design margin for universal input supplies – at no added cost.
- Global Materials Compliance – RoHS compliant, halogen-free (per IEC-61249-2-21).
Applications for the GBU150x Series include switch-mode power supplies (SMPS), battery chargers, lighting power supplies, TVs, and adapters.

Taiwan Semiconductor, a global supplier of discrete power electronics devices, LED drivers, analog ICs, and ESD protection devices, announces the availability of the RS2x family of fast recovery rectifiers. These 2A-rated diodes are available with reverse voltage ratings of 200V and 1 KV, each available in either SOD-128 or Thin SMA package. These two surface mount packages align with standard PC-board solder pads facilitating interchangeability, with the Thin SMA offering a lower profile and the SOD-128 improved thermal dissipation.
“The RS2x Family offers industry-leading forward voltage drop, switching speed, low-profile, and industry-standard thermally efficient packaging,” said Vice President, TSC Products, Sam Wang. “The combination of medium (200V) and high (1KV) ratings and identical performance in a pair of compatible packages enables design efficiency and manufacturing flexibility.”
The RS2x Family provides a number of beneficial features:
- Fast Switching and Reverse Recovery Times – Increases efficiency in a wide range of power electronics designs from medium-voltage to high-voltage applications, lowers EMI and RFI, and simplifies snubber and filtering design.

Designed with a Unique Dual-Spring Structure for Enhanced Ease of Use
Push-in terminal block is a type of terminal block that can be connected simply by inserting the wires. Its main feature is reduction of wiring workload.
- Substantial reduction of connecting workload
- Connecting workload can be reduced by over 60% when connecting round terminals and Y terminals with screws and connecting ferrule terminals by push-in insertion.
- No retightening required
- If screw terminal blocks are used, it is said that retightening is required three times on average, at the time of manufacturing, transportation, and installation. Since the push-in terminal block is supposed to have screws, it is possible to reduce the retightening workload to zero.
