SS25A

Single Diodes Overview

The SS25A is a Schottky barrier rectifier manufactured by SMC Diode Solutions, designed for surface-mount applications in the DO-214AC (SMA) package. It features a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 50 V and an average forward rectified current rating of 2 A. The device utilizes low-loss Schottky architecture to ensure high efficiency. Key electrical parameters include a maximum DC reverse voltage of 50 V, a forward voltage of 700 mV at 2 A, and a reverse leakage current of 100 µA at 50 V. It operates within a junction temperature range of -55°C to 150°C.

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix to confirm packaging format, such as tape and reel or cut tape, as these affect handling procedures. Confirm RoHS compliance status and moisture sensitivity level requirements prior to integration into the manufacturing process to ensure compatibility with standard reflow profiles.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a 50 V reverse voltage rating and 2 A continuous current capacity are required in a surface-mount form factor. The low forward voltage characteristic makes it suitable for improving overall system efficiency in low-voltage power conversion designs compared to standard PN junction diodes.

Single Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the SS series of Schottky rectifiers from SMC Diode Solutions. These devices are engineered for general-purpose rectification in consumer electronics and industrial equipment where space constraints and thermal performance are critical design factors.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include the SB250 for through-hole implementations or other SMA-packaged Schottky diodes with matching 50 V and 2 A ratings, provided pinout and thermal characteristics align with the existing footprint.

Single Diodes FAQ

What is the maximum operating junction temperature for the SS25A?

The maximum operating junction temperature is 150°C.

Does the SS25A have a specified reverse recovery time?

No, the SS25A is a Schottky diode and does not exhibit significant reverse recovery charge or time due to its majority carrier operation.
