STPS20SM60CG-TR

Diode Arrays Overview

The STPS20SM60CG-TR is a dual Schottky rectifier from STMicroelectronics, packaged in D2PAK. It features two independent diodes with an average forward current of 10 A per diode and a total of 20 A. The device supports a repetitive peak reverse voltage of 60 V and operates at junction temperatures up to 150 °C. Key electrical characteristics include a typical forward voltage drop of 0.370 V at 125 °C and 10 A, and a maximum surge non-repetitive forward current of 300 A. It is avalanche rated for high-frequency switch mode power supply applications.

Diode Arrays Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering code STPS20M60CG-TR against the official datasheet to confirm the D2PAK package and tape and reel delivery mode. Ensure that the application requirements align with the absolute maximum ratings, particularly the 60 V reverse voltage and 10 A per diode current limits. Confirm thermal management strategies are adequate for the specified junction temperature range.

Diode Arrays Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual Schottky rectifier is required for high-frequency switching applications. The D2PAK package offers a compact form factor suitable for surface mount assembly. Consider the low forward voltage drop for improved system efficiency. Verify that the avalanche rating meets the circuit's transient energy requirements and that the thermal resistance parameters fit the heatsinking design.

Diode Arrays Part Context

This part belongs to the STPS20M60C series of power Schottky rectifiers. The 'G' suffix indicates the D2PAK surface-mount package, while '-TR' denotes the tape and reel packaging format. This series is distinct from single-diode variants like the STPS20M60D and other package options such as TO-220AB or I2PAK within the same electrical family.

Diode Arrays Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same series include STPS20M60CT (TO-220AB) and STPS20M60CR (I2PAK). Cross-package replacements require verifying pinout compatibility and thermal dissipation capabilities. Other dual Schottky rectifiers with similar 60 V and 20 A ratings may be considered if electrical and mechanical specifications match.
