STMicroelectronics Schottky diodes

Click2Contact

STMicroelectronics has launched 26 new Schottky diodes in low-profile SMA and SMB Flat packages, covering voltage ratings from 25 to 200 V and current ratings from 1 to 5 A.

The 1 mm-high devices are said to have 50% lower profile than diodes in standard SMA and SMB packages, enabling designers to increase power density and save space. SMA and SMB footprint compatibility allows easy drop-in replacement. In addition, the Schottky diodes are said to have higher current ratings than standard alternatives of the same footprint, allowing migration of existing circuits that contain SMC diodes to ST’s smaller SMB Flat devices, and similarly from SMB to SMA Flat.

The Schottky diodes offer designers choices from the 30 V/1 A STPS130AFN and STPS1L30AFN in SMA Flat to the 200 V/4 A STPS4S200UFN and 100 V/5 A STPS5H100UFN in SMB Flat. With their inherently low forward voltage, the devices deliver high energy efficiency for industrial and consumer applications such as power supplies and auxiliary supplies, chargers, digital signage, game consoles, set-top boxes, e-bikes, computer peripherals, servers, telecom cards and 5G repeaters. All units have specified avalanche characteristics and feature a notched lead suitable for wave soldering and reflow.
