SK84-AQ

Single Diodes Overview

The SK84-AQ is a surface mount Schottky rectifier manufactured by Diotec Semiconductor, designed for automotive applications under the AEC-Q101 qualification standard. It features a DO-214AB (SMC) package and supports a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 40 V with an average forward rectified current of 8 A. The device exhibits a low maximum forward voltage of 0.55 V at rated current and a high surge current capability of 140 A. Operating temperatures range from -55°C to +150°C junction temperature.

Single Diodes Feature Summary

• AEC-Q101 qualified for automotive reliability standards
• Low forward voltage drop for improved efficiency
• High surge current handling capability
• Extended operating temperature range up to 150°C

Single Diodes Applications

• Automotive power supply circuits

• DC-DC converter output stages

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix matches the required packaging format, such as reel or cut tape, as availability may vary by distributor. Confirm that the AEC-Q101 certification is explicitly stated in the latest datasheet revision for your quality management system requirements. Ensure the DO-214AB footprint aligns with your PCB design guidelines before finalizing procurement.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a robust Schottky diode with high current capacity is needed in an SMC package. The 40V rating suits low-voltage DC systems, while the 8A continuous current handles moderate loads. Consider the 0.55V forward voltage for thermal management efficiency. Verify compatibility with automated assembly processes given the surface mount form factor.

Single Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to Diotec's automotive-grade discrete semiconductor portfolio, specifically within their Schottky rectifier series. The 'AQ' suffix typically denotes AEC-Q101 compliance and specific automotive qualification attributes. It complements other Diotec protection and rectification devices used in industrial and mobility electronics.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

Publicly confirmed substitute part numbers are not available in the provided documentation. Cross-referencing requires matching electrical parameters: 40V reverse voltage, 8A forward current, SMC package, and AEC-Q101 qualification.
