FST10020

Diode Arrays Overview

The FST10020 is a silicon power Schottky diode module manufactured by GeneSiC Semiconductor, housed in a TO-249AB package. It features an average forward current rating of 100 A per package and a repetitive peak reverse voltage of 20 V. The maximum instantaneous forward voltage is 0.70 V, with a peak forward surge current capability of 1000 A for half-sine waves. Thermal resistance from junction to case is 1.0 °C/W per leg. The device operates within a temperature range of -55 °C to +150 °C.

Diode Arrays Feature Summary

Diode Arrays Procurement Notes

Verify the specific part number against official manufacturer documentation to confirm electrical ratings and physical dimensions. Ensure that thermal management solutions align with the specified junction-to-case thermal resistance. Confirm compliance with relevant environmental standards before integration into final assemblies.

Diode Arrays Selection Notes

Select this component when designs require a 20 V blocking voltage with a 100 A continuous current capacity. The TO-249AB form factor supports chassis mounting for efficient heat dissipation. Evaluate the 0.70 V forward voltage drop against system efficiency targets under expected load conditions.

Diode Arrays Part Context

This component belongs to the FST100 series of silicon power Schottky diodes from GeneSiC Semiconductor. The series includes variants with different reverse voltage ratings while maintaining consistent current handling and packaging characteristics. These modules are engineered for high-reliability power conversion environments.

Diode Arrays Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include the FST10030, FST10035, and FST10040. These alternatives share identical current ratings and package dimensions but offer higher repetitive peak reverse voltage ratings of 30 V, 35 V, and 40 V respectively.
