STTH602CFP

Diode Arrays Overview

The STTH602CFP is a dual center tap ultrafast recovery diode manufactured by STMicroelectronics. It features a repetitive peak reverse voltage of 200 V and an average forward current rating of 6 A per device (3 A per diode). The component operates with a maximum junction temperature of 175 °C and exhibits a typical reverse recovery time of 14 ns. Packaged in the insulated TO-220FPAB format, it provides low losses and high surge current capability for switch mode power supplies.

Diode Arrays Feature Summary

• Dual center tap configuration optimized for switch mode power supplies
• Insulated package design ensuring electrical isolation
• Ultrafast switching characteristics with low reverse recovery time
• High thermal performance supporting elevated junction temperatures

Diode Arrays Applications

• Switch mode power supplies
• High frequency DC to DC converters
• Low voltage high frequency inverters
• Free wheeling applications
• Polarity protection circuits

Diode Arrays Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix CFP corresponds to the TO-220FPAB insulated package variant rather than the standard TO-220AB. Confirm that the required insulation voltage meets system safety standards, as the datasheet specifies distinct thermal resistance values for the FPAB package compared to other variants in the series.

Diode Arrays Selection Notes

Select this component when an insulated package is required for direct heatsink mounting without additional insulators. Ensure the application demands a 200 V blocking voltage and utilizes a center tap topology. Consider the thermal resistance parameters specific to the TO-220FPAB package for accurate heat dissipation calculations under continuous load conditions.

Diode Arrays Part Context

This part belongs to the STTH602C family of ultrafast recovery diodes designed for high-frequency power conversion. The CF suffix specifically denotes the flat pack insulated version, distinguishing it from the standard through-hole variant. It shares core electrical specifications with the broader series while offering enhanced thermal isolation capabilities.

Diode Arrays Replacement Considerations

STTH602CT serves as the primary alternative within the same product line, differing only in the non-insulated TO-220AB package configuration.
