Product details
Overview
SDT20B100D1-13 from Diodes Incorporated is a 20A, 100V Trench Schottky rectifier in TO252 (DPAK) package, featuring 0.82V max forward voltage at 20A/25°C, <100µA reverse leakage at 100V/25°C, and thermal resistance of 2.5°C/W (junction-to-case). It serves as a high-efficiency freewheel or output rectifier in DC-DC converters and AC-DC adapters operating up to +175°C junction temperature.
For engineers reviewing the SDT20B100D1-13 datasheet, SDT20B100D1-13 pinout, SDT20B100D1-13 application, or SDT20B100D1-13 equivalent, key selection criteria include forward voltage stability across temperature, surge current rating (100A IFSM), junction-to-case thermal resistance, and RoHS-compliant green packaging with matte tin terminals.
Technical Context
This device employs trench-based Schottky architecture to minimize forward conduction loss while maintaining low reverse leakage-critical for high-frequency switching power supplies. Its soft, fast switching behavior reduces EMI generation during turn-off transitions compared to conventional PN diodes.
The TO252 (DPAK) thermally enhanced package enables direct PCB copper pour attachment for efficient heat transfer, supporting continuous 20A operation at case temperatures up to 125°C per derating curve. Junction temperature range spans −55°C to +175°C, enabling use in automotive under-hood and industrial power environments.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Schottky rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vishay VS-20BQ100PBF | Same 100V/20A rating; VF = 0.72V max @ 20A/25°C; TO220AC package; higher RθJC (3.0°C/W) | Requires bolt-on heatsink; unsuitable for space-constrained SMT layouts | Select when mechanical mounting flexibility outweighs PCB area constraints |
| ON Semiconductor SB20100E | Lower IO = 10A; VF = 0.75V max @ 10A/25°C; same TO252 package; lower IFSM (50A) | Not suitable for 20A continuous designs; limited surge margin in high-inrush applications | Select only for cost-sensitive, lower-current (<12A) designs where footprint compatibility is critical |
Compared with VS-20BQ100PBF and SB20100E, SDT20B100D1-13 uniquely balances low VF (0.82V), high surge rating (100A), and SMT-compatible thermal performance (2.5°C/W) in a single TO252 solution-enabling compact, high-efficiency 20A rectification without external heatsinking.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature for continuous operation?
The SDT20B100D1-13 supports continuous operation up to +175°C junction temperature, verified per its absolute maximum ratings table. Derating begins at TC = 125°C per Figure 4, requiring thermal design that limits case temperature to maintain 20A average current. Operation beyond 175°C risks irreversible parametric shift or bond wire failure.
Is this diode suitable for synchronous rectification replacement?
No-SDT20B100D1-13 is a passive Schottky rectifier, not a synchronous rectifier controller or MOSFET driver. It replaces conventional diodes in freewheel or output positions but cannot substitute for active gate-driven MOSFETs in synchronous topologies. Its soft switching aids EMI reduction but does not enable zero-voltage switching control.
How does the TO252 package affect thermal performance?
The TO252 (DPAK) package uses an exposed cathode pad soldered directly to PCB copper, achieving 2.5°C/W RθJC when mounted on a 2″×2″ aluminum board with heatsink. This outperforms TO220 equivalents by ~20% in thermal resistance, enabling higher current density without discrete heatsinks-critical for slim-profile power modules.
What is the typical reverse recovery time (trr)?
Schottky diodes like SDT20B100D1-13 have no minority-carrier storage, so trr is not specified. Instead, they exhibit soft, fast switching with negligible reverse recovery charge (Qrr ≈ 0), confirmed by low EMI in Figure 2's dynamic characteristics. This eliminates snubber circuits needed with PN diodes in high-frequency converters.
