STPS60L30CKY-TR

Diode Arrays Overview

The STPS60L30CKY-TR is a dual Schottky rectifier array from STMicroelectronics, housed in a PowerSO-20 surface-mount package with an exposed thermal pad. It features two common cathode diodes, each rated for a maximum repetitive reverse voltage of 30 V and a continuous forward current of 30 A. The device exhibits a typical forward voltage of 420 mV at rated conditions and supports a peak non-repetitive forward surge current of 250 A. Designed for low-voltage applications, it offers negligible switching losses and extremely fast switching characteristics suitable for high-efficiency power conversion.

Diode Arrays Feature Summary

• Dual center tab configuration providing two independent Schottky diodes in a single package

• PowerSO-20 package with exposed pad optimized for thermal dissipation
• Low conduction losses and fast switching performance

Diode Arrays Applications

• Automotive DC-DC converters
• Low voltage synchronous rectification circuits
• High efficiency power supply modules
• Battery management systems

Diode Arrays Procurement Notes

Verify the component status carefully as this specific part number may be listed as obsolete or end-of-life in official manufacturer channels. Confirm that the PowerSO-20 package dimensions and pinout match your PCB footprint requirements. Ensure that the 30 V reverse voltage rating is sufficient for your circuit's peak reverse stress conditions. Check for updated replacement recommendations from STMicroelectronics if production continuity is required.

Diode Arrays Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual Schottky configuration is required in a compact surface-mount form factor. The 30 A per diode rating suits moderate to high current applications where thermal management via the exposed pad is feasible. Consider the 30 V voltage limit for low-voltage systems only. Evaluate the trade-off between the 420 mV forward voltage drop and the benefits of reduced switching losses compared to standard PN junction diodes.

Diode Arrays Part Context

This device belongs to the STPS60L series of dual Schottky rectifiers designed for automotive and industrial applications. It shares the same electrical architecture as other variants in the family but differs in packaging and specific qualification standards. The PowerSO-20 package distinguishes it from through-hole alternatives like the TO-247 versions, offering higher density integration for modern PCB designs.

Diode Arrays Replacement Considerations

Check for direct replacements within the STPS60L series that may offer updated availability. Verify that any substitute maintains the 30 V rating, 30 A current capability, and compatible package outline. Cross-reference AEC-Q101 qualification if automotive use is mandatory.
