High-Performance Schottky Diode for Modern Power Electronics
The STMicroelectronics STPS1L40M Schottky Diode represents a critical advancement in power semiconductor technology, delivering exceptional performance for demanding applications requiring high efficiency and reliability. This 40V 1A fast recovery diode combines advanced silicon technology with a compact STmite package, making it an ideal solution for power conversion systems where space constraints and thermal management are critical design considerations.
Key Technical Advantages
Engineered with ST's proprietary STmite packaging technology, this Schottky diode achieves superior thermal dissipation while maintaining a low profile surface-mount form factor (DO-216AA). The device's 40V maximum reverse voltage rating and 1A average rectified current capability make it particularly suitable for automotive, industrial, and consumer electronics applications. Its ultra-low forward voltage drop of 460mV at 1A significantly reduces conduction losses compared to conventional diodes, directly improving system efficiency.
| Parameter | Value |
|---|---|
| Reverse Voltage (Vr) | 40 V |
| Forward Current (Io) | 1 A |
| Forward Voltage Drop | 460 mV @ 1 A |
| Reverse Leakage Current | 63 µA @ 40 V |
| Operating Temperature | 150°C Max Junction |
Design Flexibility and Application Scope
With its fast recovery characteristics (<500ns) and surface-mount compatibility, the STPS1L40M enables designers to create compact, high-frequency power supplies and DC-DC converters. The device's low leakage current and high thermal stability make it particularly well-suited for automotive electronics systems operating in harsh environments. Its tape-and-reel packaging format also supports automated assembly processes, reducing manufacturing costs for high-volume production.
This Schottky diode's performance characteristics directly address modern power electronics challenges, including energy efficiency optimization in portable devices, thermal management in automotive systems, and miniaturization requirements across consumer electronics. When integrated into switching power supplies or battery charging circuits, its fast recovery speed helps minimize switching losses while maintaining excellent electrical performance across wide temperature ranges.
