STPS8L30DEE-TR

Single Diodes Overview

The STPS8L30DEE-TR is a single Schottky rectifier manufactured by STMicroelectronics. It features a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 30 V and an average forward rectified current of 8 A. The device is housed in a PowerFLAT™ surface-mount package, specifically the S-PDSO-N5 configuration. Key electrical parameters include a typical forward voltage drop of 630 mV at 8 A and a maximum non-repetitive peak forward surge current of 75 A. The component is designed for low voltage applications with optimized conduction and reverse loss trade-offs.

Single Diodes Feature Summary

• Single Schottky rectifier structure optimized for low voltage power conversion
• PowerFLAT™ surface-mount packaging for high power density applications
• Low forward voltage drop to minimize power dissipation and reduce heatsink requirements
• Specified avalanche capability for enhanced robustness

Single Diodes Applications

• Rectification at the secondary side of 3.3 V switched mode power supplies (SMPS)
• High frequency DC to DC converters
• Freewheeling diode applications in switching circuits
• Polarity protection circuits

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix 'DEE' against official STMicroelectronics documentation to confirm the exact tape-and-reel packaging and marking details. Ensure the selected variant matches the required PowerFLAT™ package dimensions and thermal characteristics for the target PCB layout. Cross-reference the datasheet revision date to confirm compliance with current environmental standards such as ECOPACK® specifications.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component for designs requiring an 8 A current rating with a 30 V blocking voltage in a compact surface-mount form factor. The PowerFLAT™ package offers a favorable trade-off between thermal performance and board space compared to traditional DPAK packages. Consider the forward voltage characteristics relative to system efficiency requirements and ensure the operating temperature range aligns with the specified -65 °C to +150 °C limits.

Single Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the STPS8L series of low-drop power Schottky rectifiers from STMicroelectronics. The series is characterized by its suitability for switched mode power supplies and high-frequency DC/DC converters. The STPS8L30DEE-TR specifically utilizes the PowerFLAT™ package, distinguishing it from other variants in the family that may use DPAK or through-hole packages, providing improved thermal management and mounting flexibility for modern electronics.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements within the same series include the STPS8L30B, which shares identical electrical ratings but utilizes a DPAK-3 (TO-252-3) package. Designers must account for the physical footprint differences when substituting the PowerFLAT™ version with the DPAK version. Other STPS8L variants with different voltage ratings are not electrically interchangeable.
