Revolutionizing Power Efficiency with STMicroelectronics FERD30SM100DJFTR Diode
In the rapidly evolving landscape of power electronics, STMicroelectronics continues to lead innovation through its advanced component solutions. The FERD30SM100DJFTR PowerFlat™ diode represents a significant leap in rectifier technology, combining exceptional performance characteristics with a compact surface-mount design. This field-effect rectifier diode (FERD) addresses modern engineering challenges across automotive, industrial, and renewable energy applications, where space constraints and thermal management remain critical concerns.
Technical Excellence in a Compact Package
Engineered for high-current applications, this diode delivers 30A average rectified current capacity while maintaining a remarkably low forward voltage drop of 970mV at maximum load. The 100V DC reverse voltage rating ensures reliable operation in demanding power systems, complemented by 150µA reverse leakage current at rated voltage. Its fast recovery characteristics (<500ns) enable efficient switching in high-frequency circuits, making it ideal for modern power supplies and motor control systems.
Voltage Rating | 100V |
Current Capacity | 30A |
Forward Voltage | 970mV @ 30A |
Operating Temperature | Up to 175°C |
Advanced Thermal Management
The PowerFlat™ (5x6) package combines space-saving surface-mount technology with superior thermal dissipation capabilities. This 8-PowerVDFN footprint enables automated PCB assembly while maintaining mechanical robustness in harsh environments. The ECOPACK®2 compliance underscores STMicroelectronics' commitment to sustainable manufacturing practices, eliminating hazardous materials without compromising performance.
Design engineers benefit from simplified thermal management solutions thanks to the device's inherent efficiency. Compared to traditional rectifiers, the FERD architecture reduces conduction losses by up to 30%, directly translating to lower operating temperatures and extended system lifespan. This efficiency gain proves particularly valuable in automotive applications where under-hood temperatures frequently exceed conventional component limits.
Design Flexibility Across Industries
From industrial motor drives to solar inverters and automotive power systems, this diode offers versatile performance characteristics. Its 175°C maximum junction temperature rating provides ample thermal headroom for demanding applications, while the surface-mount design facilitates high-density PCB layouts. The tape & reel packaging supports automated handling and inventory management, aligning with modern manufacturing workflows.
When integrated into switch-mode power supplies, the device's fast recovery characteristics minimize switching losses while maintaining excellent efficiency across varying load conditions. The absence of reverse recovery charge (trr) simplifies snubber circuit design, reducing component count and overall system cost. This makes it particularly attractive for designers seeking to optimize both performance and bill-of-materials efficiency.
