Substitute Part Grouping Explanation
Substitution of the ESH2DA R3G is determined by the following critical parameters:
Mandatory Matching Parameters:
- Voltage - DC Reverse (Vr) Maximum: 200 V
- Current - Average Rectified (Io): 1 A
- Package / Case: DO-214AC, SMA (surface mount)
- Mounting Type: Surface Mount
- Technology: Standard
Performance Parameters Affecting Substitution:
- Voltage - Forward (Vf) Maximum @ If: 900 mV @ 1 A (baseline)
- Reverse Recovery Time (trr): 25 ns (baseline)
- Current - Reverse Leakage @ Vr: 1 µA @ 200 V (baseline)
- Capacitance @ Vr, F: 25 pF @ 4V, 1MHz (baseline)
- Operating Temperature - Junction: -55°C to 175°C (baseline)
Substitute parts are classified into two categories:

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Can the ESH2DA R3G be directly replaced with the ESH2DA?
A: Yes. The ESH2DA is a parametric equivalent with identical electrical specifications. Both parts are rated for 200 V reverse voltage, 1 A average rectified current, 900 mV forward voltage at 1 A, and 25 ns reverse recovery time. The primary difference is product status: ESH2DA R3G is discontinued while ESH2DA is active in production.
Q: What is the difference between ESH1D and ESH2DA?
A: Both parts are from Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation and meet the same voltage and current ratings. The ESH1D has a faster reverse recovery time of 15 ns compared to 25 ns for ESH2DA, and lower capacitance of 16 pF versus 25 pF. Both maintain the full -55°C to 175°C operating temperature range. The ESH1D offers improved switching performance.
Q: Why do some substitute parts have a lower maximum operating temperature?
A: Several substitute parts from Vishay and Diodes Incorporated specify a maximum junction temperature of 150°C instead of 175°C. This represents a design difference between manufacturers. For applications operating below 150°C, these parts are fully compatible. Applications requiring operation above 150°C should use ESH1D or ESH2DA.
Q: Are the Vishay ES1D series parts interchangeable with the original ESH2DA R3G?
A: The Vishay ES1D series parts meet all mandatory electrical requirements and package specifications. Forward voltage is slightly higher at 920 mV versus 900 mV, and capacitance is lower at 10 pF versus 25 pF. Reverse recovery time matches at 25 ns. Maximum operating temperature is 150°C instead of 175°C. These parts are suitable for general-purpose rectification applications within the 150°C temperature limit.
Q: What is the significance of the packaging designation (Tape & Reel vs. Cut Tape)?
A: Tape & Reel (TR) and Cut Tape (CT) designations refer to supply format, not electrical specifications. Tape & Reel packaging is supplied on continuous tape for automated assembly. Cut Tape is supplied in smaller quantities on cut tape segments. Electrical performance is identical between packaging formats for the same part number.
Q: Can the CGRA4003-G be used as a direct substitute?
A: The CGRA4003-G meets voltage and current requirements but has higher forward voltage (1.1 V versus 900 mV) and higher reverse leakage current (5 µA versus 1 µA). These differences may affect circuit performance in applications sensitive to forward voltage drop or leakage current. The part is suitable for general-purpose rectification where these parameter variations are acceptable.
Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS3 compliant?
A: Yes. All substitute parts listed are RoHS3 compliant with MSL 1 (unlimited moisture sensitivity level), matching the original ESH2DA R3G specifications.
Q: Which substitute part offers the best performance improvement?
A: The ESH1D offers the most significant performance improvement with a faster reverse recovery time of 15 ns (compared to 25 ns) and lower capacitance of 16 pF (compared to 25 pF). This part maintains the full -55°C to 175°C operating temperature range and is available in quantity.
