HS5F V7G Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The HS5F V7G is a general-purpose rectifier diode rated for 300 V DC reverse voltage and 5 A average rectified current in a Surface Mount DO-214AB (SMC) package. This component is classified as discontinued at DiGi Electronics, necessitating identification of equivalent substitute parts for ongoing design support and procurement continuity. The part is manufactured by Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation and complies with ROHS3 and REACH standards.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the HS5F V7G is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Voltage Rating: 300 V DC reverse voltage (Vr)
Current Rating: 5 A average rectified current (Io)
Forward Voltage: 1 V maximum at 5 A
Reverse Recovery Time: 50 ns
Reverse Leakage Current: 10 µA at 300 V
Package Type: DO-214AB (SMC) Surface Mount
Operating Temperature Range: -55°C to 150°C junction temperature
Technology Classification: Standard rectifier diode with fast recovery characteristics

The substitute part HS5F maintains identical electrical specifications and packaging, differing only in the supply format (Tape & Reel versus Cut Tape) and product status (Active versus Discontinued).

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The HS5F (Tape & Reel format) is a direct functional equivalent to the HS5F V7G (Cut Tape format). Both parts are manufactured by Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation and share identical electrical specifications, thermal ratings, and package geometry. The substitute part maintains active product status, ensuring continued availability and supply chain stability.

Selection of the HS5F substitute is appropriate for applications requiring:

300 V reverse voltage rating
5 A average rectified current capacity
Fast recovery rectification (50 ns reverse recovery time)
Surface mount assembly in DO-214AB package
Operating temperatures from -55°C to 150°C
ROHS3 and REACH compliance

The primary distinction between the main part and substitute is the supply packaging format. The HS5F V7G is supplied in Cut Tape, while the HS5F substitute is supplied in Tape & Reel format. This difference affects procurement and assembly processes but does not alter component functionality or electrical performance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the HS5F (Tape & Reel) directly replace the HS5F V7G (Cut Tape)?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical. The difference is supply format only. Tape & Reel packaging is standard for high-volume surface mount assembly and is compatible with automated pick-and-place equipment.

Q: Are there any electrical performance differences between the two parts?

A: No. Both parts share identical voltage ratings (300 V), current ratings (5 A), reverse recovery time (50 ns), and all other specified electrical parameters.

Q: What is the significance of the packaging format difference?

A: Cut Tape (CT) is typically used for lower-volume or manual assembly applications, while Tape & Reel (TR) is standard for automated surface mount production. The component itself is identical; only the supply method differs.

Q: Are both parts compliant with regulatory standards?

A: Yes. Both the HS5F V7G and HS5F are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements.

Q: Why is the HS5F V7G discontinued while the HS5F remains active?

A: Product discontinuation at specific distributors does not indicate component obsolescence. The HS5F remains in active production by Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation and is available through alternative supply channels.

Q: Can I use the HS5F in existing designs specified for HS5F V7G?

A: Yes. The HS5F is a direct substitute with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. No design modifications are required.

Q: What is the moisture sensitivity level for these parts?

A: Both parts have Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) 1, indicating unlimited shelf life without moisture control requirements.
