Product details
Overview
IDT02S60C from Infineon Technologies is a 2nd-generation thinQ!® silicon carbide (SiC) Schottky diode rated for 600 V repetitive peak reverse voltage and 2 A continuous forward current at TC < 140 °C. It delivers zero reverse recovery charge (Qc = 3.2 nC), temperature-independent switching, and high surge capability (IF,max = 100 A, tp = 10 µs), enabling use in CCM PFC stages of 200–400 W SMPS.
For engineers reviewing the IDT02S60C datasheet, IDT02S60C pinout, IDT02S60C application, or IDT02S60C equivalent, key selection criteria include its SiC-based zero-recovery behavior, thermal robustness up to 175 °C junction temperature, low forward voltage (VF = 1.7–2.6 V across 25–150 °C), and PG-TO220-2-2 package with isolated case.
Technical Context
This SiC Schottky diode replaces conventional silicon fast recovery diodes in high-frequency, high-efficiency power conversion. Its unipolar conduction eliminates minority carrier storage, resulting in no reverse recovery time (trr) and negligible switching losses even at elevated temperatures.
Designed for hard-switched topologies, it exhibits stable capacitive charge (Qc = 3.2 nC) and dv/dt ruggedness of 50 V/ns under full-rated voltage swing. Thermal resistance RthJC is 8.5 K/W, supporting direct heatsink mounting via M3/M3.5 screws with 60 mNm torque.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 600 V - supports DC-link voltages up to 400 V bus with 50% safety margin in PFC and DC/DC stages |
| IF (cont.) | 2 A @ TC < 140 °C - defines maximum steady-state conduction in thermally constrained layouts |
| VF | 1.7–2.6 V @ 2 A, 25–150 °C - enables low conduction loss across full operating temperature range |
| Qc | 3.2 nC - total capacitive charge determines turn-off energy in hard-switched converters |
| RthJC | 8.5 K/W - quantifies thermal path efficiency from junction to case for heatsink sizing |
| IF,max | 100 A @ tp = 10 µs - supports short-duration overload events without bondwire failure |
| dv/dt | 50 V/ns - ensures reliable operation during fast voltage transients in high-dV/dt gate-drive environments |
Pinout & Package
Package: PG-TO220-2-2 - through-hole, isolated case, two-terminal configuration with metal tab electrically connected to cathode (Pin 2). Mounting uses M3/M3.5 screws with 60 mNm torque.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 (Lead) | Anode | Primary current entry point; soldered to PCB trace carrying input current in PFC boost stage |
| Pin 2 (Tab) | Cathode | Electrically connected to metal case; serves as high-current return path and thermal interface to heatsink |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No reverse recovery | Eliminates switching loss and EMI from tail current, enabling >300 kHz PFC operation without snubbers |
| Temperature-stable VF | VF increases only ~0.5 V from 25 °C to 150 °C at 2 A - maintains predictable conduction loss over thermal cycle |
| High surge rating | 100 A non-repetitive peak current withstands inrush and fault transients in industrial AC/DC supplies |
| SiC material system | Enables 175 °C max junction temperature and 5× higher thermal conductivity than silicon - reduces heatsink volume by ~40% |
| RoHS-compliant plating | Pb-free lead finish qualified per JEDEC J-STD-20/JESD22 - supports lead-free reflow and wave soldering at 260 °C (1.6 mm from case) |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar SiC Schottky diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| C3D02060E (Wolfspeed) | Same 600 V/2 A rating; Qc = 3.3 nC; RthJC = 9.0 K/W; TO-220AC package with non-isolated tab | Non-isolated cathode requires insulating washer for heatsink mounting - adds thermal resistance and assembly step | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs thermal performance and isolation requirement |
| STPSC2H06D (STMicroelectronics) | 600 V/2 A; VF = 1.8 V typ @ 2 A/25 °C; Qc = 3.5 nC; RthJC = 8.0 K/W; TO-220AC package | Slightly higher VF and Qc; not JEDEC-qualified for automotive - limited to industrial use | Select when lower initial VF is prioritized over high-temperature leakage stability |
Compared with C3D02060E and STPSC2H06D, IDT02S60C offers isolated cathode mounting, JEDEC qualification for target applications, and superior high-temperature reverse leakage (1 µA @ 150 °C), making it preferred for automotive and high-reliability industrial PFC.

FAQ
Is IDT02S60C pin-compatible with standard silicon diodes in TO-220 packages?
No - while it shares the PG-TO220-2-2 mechanical outline, its isolated metal tab (cathode) requires different mounting insulation versus non-isolated silicon diodes. Pin 1 is anode, Pin 2 (tab) is cathode and case-connected; incorrect heatsink grounding causes short-circuit failure.
What is the maximum allowable case temperature during continuous operation?
The absolute maximum case temperature is 140 °C for 2 A continuous forward current, or 100 °C for 3 A RMS current. Exceeding these limits risks exceeding the 175 °C junction temperature rating, triggering thermal shutdown or accelerated degradation.
Does IDT02S60C require a gate resistor or snubber circuit?
No - as a Schottky diode with no minority carriers, it has no reverse recovery and generates negligible switching noise. Snubbers are unnecessary unless external circuit parasitics cause ringing; gate resistors apply only to MOSFETs, not diodes.
Can IDT02S60C be used in parallel configurations for higher current handling?
Yes - its positive temperature coefficient of forward voltage (VF increases with temperature) enables natural current sharing. However, layout symmetry, matched trace inductance, and individual thermal coupling to heatsink are required to prevent current imbalance above 80% of total rated current.
