100-V Schottky rectifiers aid efficiency
Twenty-eight 100-V trench Schottky rectifiers from ST increase efficiency and power density in power converters operating at high switching frequencies. Target applications for the portfolio of devices include power supplies for telecom, server, and smart metering equipment, as well as automotive LED lighting and low-voltage DC/DC converters.
According to the manufacturer, the diodes reduce rectifier losses with forward-voltage and reverse-recovery characteristics that enable increased power density with high efficiency. Forward voltage is 50 mV to 100 mV better than comparable planar diodes, depending on current and temperature conditions. Changing to these new devices can increase efficiency by 0.5%.
Variants in the family cover eight current ratings ranging from 1 A to 15 A. Multiple surface-mount package types are available in both industrial and automotive grades. Automotive parts are AEC-Q101 qualified for operation over a temperature range of -40°C to +175°C and manufactured in PPAP-capable facilities. Diodes are 100% avalanche tested in production to ensure device robustness and system reliability.
All of the parts are available now in DPAK, SOD123 flat, SOD128 flat, SMB flat, and PSMC (TO-227A) packages. Volume prices start at $0.107 for the 1-A STPST1H100ZF in the SMD123 flat package.
