Product details
Overview
SB580-T from Diodes Incorporated is a 5.0A, 80V Schottky barrier rectifier in DO-201AD package, featuring low forward voltage (0.80 V @ 5.0 A), high surge capability (150 A peak), and guard ring die construction for transient protection-used in low-voltage DC/DC converters, automotive polarity protection, and freewheeling diode applications.
For engineers reviewing the SB580-T datasheet, SB580-T pinout, SB580-T application, or SB580-T equivalent, key selection criteria include forward voltage drop at rated current, peak repetitive reverse voltage rating, thermal resistance (10 °C/W), junction capacitance (400 pF), and RoHS-compliant tin-plated leads with cathode band polarity marking.
Technical Context
This Schottky rectifier operates as a unidirectional power switching device optimized for high-frequency, low-loss rectification in DC/DC stages and flyback snubbing circuits. Its guard ring die structure enhances transient robustness, while the DO-201AD package supports thermal dissipation up to +150°C junction temperature.
Designed for operation under single-phase, half-wave, 60 Hz resistive or inductive loads, it requires 20% current derating for capacitive loads. Reverse leakage is specified at 0.5 mA (25°C) and 50 mA (100°C), reflecting its thermal stability across automotive-grade ambient ranges.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 80 V - Maximum repetitive reverse blocking voltage; defines safe operating ceiling in polarity protection and clamp circuits. |
| IF(AV) | 5.0 A @ TL = +80°C - Average forward current rating under defined thermal load; sets continuous conduction limit in power supply outputs. |
| VFM | 0.80 V @ IF = 5.0 A - Low conduction loss enables >92% efficiency in 5–12 V output rectification stages. |
| IFSM | 150 A (8.3 ms half-sine) - Surge withstand capability ensures reliability during inrush or fault transients in motor drive freewheel paths. |
| RθJA | 10 °C/W - Junction-to-ambient thermal resistance; determines heatsink-free operation up to ~2.5 W dissipation at +80°C ambient. |
| CJ | 400 pF @ 1 MHz, 4 V - Low junction capacitance minimizes switching losses and EMI in high-frequency (>100 kHz) converter topologies. |
Pinout & Package
DO-201AD molded plastic case with axial leads; cathode identified by band marking; lead finish: bright tin, solderable per MIL-STD-202 Method 208; moisture sensitivity level 1.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Current entry point during forward conduction | Connected to lower-potential side (e.g., switch node in buck converter or motor return path). |
| Cathode | Current exit point during forward conduction; marked with band | Connected to higher-potential rail (e.g., output capacitor positive or battery + terminal in polarity protection). |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Guard ring die construction | Improves ESD and transient immunity without external TVS, enabling direct placement in noisy automotive power rails. |
| Low forward voltage (0.80 V) | Reduces conduction loss by ~35% vs. comparable silicon rectifiers, lowering thermal stress in sealed enclosures. |
| 150 A non-repetitive surge rating | Supports reliable operation during motor stall events or hot-plug in industrial control I/O modules. |
| RoHS-compliant tin plating | Ensures compatibility with lead-free reflow profiles (peak 260°C) and eliminates post-solder cleaning requirements. |
Applications
| Automotive Polarity Protection | DC/DC Converter Output Rectification |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Prevents damage from reverse battery connection in vehicle infotainment head units and body control modules. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Unidirectional current gate placed between battery input and main power rail. Use Value: 0.80 V forward drop limits power loss to <4 W at 5 A, avoiding thermal shutdown in compact PCB layouts. | Use Scenario: Rectifies switched output in 12 V → 5 V synchronous buck converters for ADAS camera modules. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Freewheeling path for inductor current during low-side switch off-time. Use Value: 400 pF junction capacitance minimizes reverse recovery ringing, reducing conducted EMI near CISPR-25 Class 5 limits. |
| Industrial Motor Freewheeling | Power Supply Input Protection |
Use Scenario: Suppresses inductive kickback in 24 V solenoid drivers used in factory automation valves. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Clamping diode across coil terminals, conducting only during de-energization. Use Value: 150 A surge rating handles 10× nominal coil current spikes without degradation over 100k+ cycles. | Use Scenario: Blocks reverse current flow from backup supercapacitor banks into primary 48 V telecom power supplies. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Isolation diode in OR-ing configuration to prevent backfeed and ensure source priority. Use Value: 80 V VRRM provides 20% margin above 48 V nominal, accommodating line transients up to ±30 V without breakdown. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Schottky rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SB580-B | Same electrical specs; bulk packaging (500 pcs) vs. tape & reel (1.2K) | No difference in circuit function; unsuitable for automated SMT placement | Select SB580-B only for manual prototyping or low-volume hand assembly. |
| Vishay VS-50SQ040 | Higher VRRM (40 V), lower VFM (0.49 V), same IF(AV) and package | Not suitable for 80 V systems; limited to ≤36 V inputs | Choose only for 24 V or lower DC systems where ultra-low VF is prioritized over voltage margin. |
Compared with SB580-B, SB580-T offers automated assembly readiness and traceability; versus VS-50SQ040, it trades lower forward voltage for essential 80 V blocking capability in 48 V industrial and automotive subsystems.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature for SB580-T?
The SB580-T has an operating junction temperature range of –65°C to +150°C. This allows reliable operation in under-hood automotive environments and enclosed industrial enclosures without forced cooling, provided power dissipation remains within thermal limits defined by RθJA = 10 °C/W and ambient conditions.
Is SB580-T suitable for surface-mount assembly?
No-SB580-T uses the axial-leaded DO-201AD package and is designed for through-hole mounting. It is not compatible with standard SMT reflow or pick-and-place equipment. For surface-mount alternatives, consider Diodes Inc.'s APD5080Q or similar SOD-123FL Schottky devices.
Does SB580-T meet AEC-Q101 qualification?
No-SB580-T is not AEC-Q101 qualified. While manufactured in IATF 16949-certified facilities and compliant with RoHS, it lacks the extended stress testing required for automotive semiconductor qualification. For AEC-Q101 applications, Diodes recommends the SB580Q series.
How does the guard ring die construction improve reliability?
The guard ring structure surrounds the active junction to suppress edge breakdown under high dv/dt or ESD events. In practice, this increases the device's immunity to fast transients (e.g., ISO 7637-2 pulse 1/2a), reducing field failure rates in 12 V/24 V vehicle power networks without adding external protection components.
