Product details
Overview
FERD20H60CG-TR from STMicroelectronics is a 60 V field-effect rectifier diode in D²PAK package, rated for 20 A average forward current (dual-diode configuration), with typ. 0.39 V forward voltage at 10 A/125 °C and max. 175 °C junction temperature - optimized for high-efficiency, thermally constrained AC/DC adapters and USB-C PD chargers.
For engineers reviewing the FERD20H60CG-TR datasheet, FERD20H60CG-TR pinout, FERD20H60CG-TR application, or FERD20H60CG-TR equivalent, key selection criteria include low conduction loss (VF ≤ 0.585 V @ 10 A/125 °C), stable IR < 12 mA @ 45 V/125 °C, thermal resistance Rth(j-c) = 1.3 °C/W (device), and D²PAK surface-mount compatibility for automated assembly.
Technical Context
This device uses ST's proprietary field-effect rectifier process to achieve superior VF/IR trade-off versus conventional Schottky or fast recovery diodes. It operates as a dual-anode, single-cathode configuration - electrically two independent 10 A diodes sharing one cathode terminal - enabling interleaved or parallel rectification without external coupling.
Designed for high-frequency switching (e.g., 100–300 kHz LLC or QR flyback), it delivers low reverse recovery charge (Qrr not specified but implied by "field-effect rectifier" architecture) and minimal capacitive turn-on loss. Its Rth(j-c) of 1.3 °C/W (per device) and Tj(max) = 175 °C support sustained operation under high ambient temperatures in sealed enclosures.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 60 V - maximum repetitive reverse blocking voltage; suitable for 48 V output systems with margin against transient spikes. |
| IF(AV) | 20 A (device), 10 A per diode - enables dual-phase synchronous rectification or parallel use without derating beyond thermal limits. |
| VF (typ.) | 0.39 V @ 10 A, 125 °C - reduces conduction loss to ~3.9 W per diode, critical for >94% efficiency targets in compact chargers. |
| IR (max) | 12 mA @ 45 V, 125 °C - ensures low standby power leakage in no-load or light-load conditions. |
| Rth(j-c) | 1.3 °C/W (device) - allows direct heatsinking via PCB copper area; 25 °C/W ambient rise per 32.5 W dissipation with 25 cm² Cu. |
| Tj(max) | 175 °C - supports operation in sealed, fanless enclosures up to 85 °C ambient with proper layout. |
Pinout & Package
Package: D²PAK (TO-263AB), surface-mount, single-sided heatsink interface. Cathode tab is electrically connected to pin 2 and exposed metal pad; pins 1 and 3 are anodes of the two integrated diodes.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 | Anode 1 | Independent anode terminal for first diode; used in dual-output or interleaved rectifier topologies. |
| Pin 2 | Cathode (common) | Shared cathode connection; electrically tied to exposed metal pad - primary thermal and electrical return path. |
| Pin 3 | Anode 2 | Independent anode terminal for second diode; enables symmetrical current sharing when paralleled with Pin 1. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| ST advanced rectifier process | Enables VF/IR optimization unattainable with standard Schottky or FRD processes - verified by 0.39 V/10 A @ 125 °C and <12 mA IR @ 45 V/125 °C. |
| Dual-diode integration | Two independent 10 A diodes in one D²PAK - eliminates matching tolerance and layout asymmetry in dual-phase SR designs. |
| Low Rth(j-c) | 1.3 °C/W (device) - permits >30 W dissipation with 40 °C rise using 30 cm² 2-oz Cu on FR4, reducing need for external heatsinks. |
| High Tj rating | 175 °C max junction temperature - extends lifetime in thermally aggressive environments (e.g., enclosed wall adapters). |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar field-effect rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vishay VS-20CPH06-M3 | Single-diode 20 A, TO-220AC; VF = 0.52 V @ 10 A/125 °C; Rth(j-c) = 2.0 °C/W. | Requires two devices for dual-anode function; higher thermal resistance demands larger heatsink. | Prefer when legacy TO-220 footprint is fixed and dual-anode integration is unnecessary. |
| ON Semiconductor NRVB2060CT | 20 A dual common-cathode Schottky; VF = 0.62 V @ 10 A/125 °C; IR = 100 mA @ 45 V/125 °C. | Higher conduction loss and leakage limit light-load efficiency and thermal headroom. | Acceptable only in cost-sensitive, non-compact designs with ample heatsinking and >100 mW standby budget. |
Compared with VS-20CPH06-M3 and NRVB2060CT, FERD20H60CG-TR delivers 28% lower conduction loss and 8× lower leakage at 125 °C - directly enabling smaller magnetics, reduced copper area, and fanless operation in space-constrained adapters.

FAQ
What is the thermal performance difference between FERD20H60CG-TR and standard Schottky diodes?
FERD20H60CG-TR achieves Rth(j-c) = 1.3 °C/W (device) and VF = 0.39 V @ 10 A/125 °C, whereas typical 20 A Schottkys show Rth(j-c) ≥ 2.0 °C/W and VF ≥ 0.55 V under same conditions. This yields ~35% lower total power loss and 18 °C lower junction rise at 20 A DC, verified per ST DocID030963 Rev 1 thermal curves.
Can FERD20H60CG-TR be used in single-diode configurations?
Yes - Pins 1 and 2 or Pins 2 and 3 can be used independently as separate 10 A diodes. The internal structure is two isolated anodes sharing one cathode (Pin 2), allowing flexible routing in single- or dual-phase layouts without modification to the die or package.
Is the D²PAK footprint compatible with standard reflow profiles?
Yes - the D²PAK package meets IPC-J-STD-020D moisture sensitivity level 1 and is qualified for standard lead-free reflow (peak 260 °C, 30 s). ST specifies 0.55 N·m torque for mechanical mounting, and the exposed cathode pad ensures reliable thermal transfer to 2-oz Cu PCB layers.
Does FERD20H60CG-TR require gate drive or external control?
No - it is a passive rectifier diode with no gate terminal or control interface. It operates solely on forward bias conduction and reverse blocking, identical to standard diodes. Its "field-effect" designation refers to internal silicon process optimization, not MOSFET-like control behavior.
