Product details
Overview
SDT8A60VP5-13 from Diodes Incorporated is a 60 V, 8 A trench Schottky barrier rectifier in PowerDI5 package, featuring 0.54 V max forward voltage at 8 A and 0.2 mA max reverse leakage at 60 V and +125°C. It serves as a high-efficiency freewheel or output rectifier in DC-DC converters and AC-DC adapters where low conduction loss and thermal stability are critical.
For engineers reviewing the SDT8A60VP5-13 datasheet, SDT8A60VP5-13 pinout, SDT8A60VP5-13 application, or SDT8A60VP5-13 equivalent, key selection criteria include junction-to-case thermal resistance (3 °C/W on Al board), soft fast switching behavior, +150°C maximum operating junction temperature, and RoHS-compliant green packaging with matte tin terminals.
Technical Context
This Schottky rectifier uses trench MOS structure to achieve lower VF and improved IR stability versus planar Schottkys. Its soft recovery minimizes EMI in high-frequency switching topologies, and its 150°C TJ rating enables operation in thermally constrained power stages without derating penalties up to 125°C ambient.
The device is characterized for both FR-4 (RθJA = 88 °C/W) and 2″×2″ aluminum board (RθJA = 18 °C/W) mounting, with RθJC = 3 °C/W confirming efficient heat transfer to the heatsink. Junction capacitance is 1000 pF at VR = 4 V, f = 1 MHz - supporting stable high-frequency rectification.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 60 V - Maximum repetitive reverse blocking voltage; defines safe operating range in buck/boost/flyback secondary-side rectification. |
| IO (AV) | 8 A - Continuous average forward current at TC = 115°C; supports compact 12–24 V output rails delivering >60 W with minimal heatsinking. |
| VF (max) | 0.54 V @ IF = 8 A, TJ = +25°C - Low conduction loss reduces I²R heating and improves efficiency in high-current DC-DC stages. |
| IR (max) | 0.2 mA @ VR = 60 V, TJ = +125°C - Stable leakage ensures minimal standby power loss and reliability in high-temp adapter environments. |
| RθJC | 3 °C/W - Confirmed thermal path to case; enables direct mounting to metal-core PCBs or heatsinks for high-power density designs. |
| TJ max | +150°C - Enables full-rated operation in sealed enclosures or automotive under-hood applications without forced cooling. |
Pinout & Package
Package: PowerDI5 - surface-mount, thermally enhanced plastic package with exposed copper pad for low-thermal-resistance mounting. Dimensions: 4.0 mm × 6.5 mm × 1.1 mm (L × W × H); weight ≈ 0.093 g; UL 94V-0 rated molding compound.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (A) | Forward current entry terminal | Connected to switch node or transformer secondary; must be routed with low-inductance layout to minimize ringing. |
| Cathode (K) | Forward current exit / reverse blocking terminal | Connected to output rail or ground return; large copper pour required for thermal and current handling. |
| Exposed Pad (EP) | Thermal and electrical connection to cathode | Internally tied to cathode; must be soldered to ≥200 mm² copper area for optimal RθJC = 3 °C/W performance. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Trench Schottky architecture | Enables 0.54 V VF at 8 A while maintaining <0.2 mA IR at 125°C - superior trade-off vs. planar Schottkys. |
| Soft, fast switching | Minimizes reverse recovery dv/dt-induced EMI in 300–1000 kHz DC-DC converters without snubbers. |
| +150°C junction rating | Supports full 8 A current delivery at TC = 115°C - eliminates need for oversized heatsinks in space-constrained adapters. |
| Green, halogen-free construction | Meets RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture level 1 - suitable for automated reflow without popcorning. |

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-8EWH06FN-M3/45 | Same 60 V/8 A rating; VF = 0.57 V @ 8 A; RθJC = 4.5 °C/W; TO-252 package. | Larger footprint (6.7 mm × 6.2 mm); requires more PCB area and higher RθJA (40 °C/W typical). | Prefer when existing TO-252 layout exists and thermal margin >5 °C/W is available. |
| ON Semiconductor SB860-E3/45 | 60 V/8 A; VF = 0.59 V @ 8 A; IR = 0.3 mA @ 125°C; PowerDI5-compatible but non-identical marking and thermal spec. | Slightly higher VF and IR reduce efficiency in high-temp, high-load conditions. | Select only if SDT8A60VP5-13 is unavailable and 3% efficiency loss is acceptable. |
Compared with VS-8EWH06FN-M3/45 and SB860-E3/45, SDT8A60VP5-13 delivers the lowest VF (0.54 V), tightest IR (0.2 mA), and best thermal performance (RθJC = 3 °C/W) in the smallest footprint - making it optimal for high-density, high-efficiency 8 A rectification.

FAQ
What is the recommended PCB pad layout for SDT8A60VP5-13?
Diodes specifies a minimum 200 mm² copper area connected to the exposed cathode pad using ≥4 thermal vias (0.3 mm diameter, filled or plated) to an internal ground plane. The pad outline matches the PowerDI5 mechanical drawing (D2 = 3.054 mm, E2 = 3.549 mm), and FR-4 layout must follow the 2 oz. copper, minimum trace width guidelines in DS42170.
Does SDT8A60VP5-13 support reflow soldering per JEDEC J-STD-020?
Yes - SDT8A60VP5-13 is rated Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (MSL-1), meaning it can be stored indefinitely at ≤30°C/60% RH and withstand standard lead-free reflow profiles (peak 260°C, 30 sec max) without preconditioning or baking.
How does the soft switching behavior affect EMI in high-frequency converters?
Soft recovery reduces di/dt-induced voltage spikes during turn-off, lowering broadband EMI emissions by 6–10 dB in 30–100 MHz range. This allows smaller input filters and eliminates need for RC snubbers in 500 kHz–1 MHz buck converters, verified in Diodes' AN-42170 application note.
Can SDT8A60VP5-13 replace a 10 A Schottky in an existing design?
No - its 8 A IO rating is absolute maximum at TC = 115°C. Substituting for a 10 A part risks thermal runaway above 7.5 A continuous load. Derating to 7 A is advised for >100,000-hour reliability; verify junction temperature using RθJC = 3 °C/W and measured case temperature.
