Product details
Overview
SDT8A60VP5-7D 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 compact DC-DC converters and AC-DC adapters.
For engineers reviewing the SDT8A60VP5-7D datasheet, SDT8A60VP5-7D pinout, SDT8A60VP5-7D application, or SDT8A60VP5-7D equivalent, key selection criteria include thermal resistance (RθJC = 3 °C/W on Al board), +150°C junction rating, soft switching behavior, and RoHS-compliant green packaging with matte tin terminals.
Technical Context
This Schottky rectifier uses trench MOS structure to achieve low VF and stable IR across temperature. Its 0.54 V VF max at 8 A and 0.2 mA IR max at 60 V / +125°C reflect optimized metal-semiconductor interface and low-resistance leadframe design.
Thermal performance is defined for two mounting conditions: RθJA = 18 °C/W on 2″×2″ aluminum board and RθJA = 88 °C/W on FR-4 PCB with 2 oz copper. Junction-to-case resistance is 3 °C/W under high-conductivity thermal path conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 60 V - Maximum repetitive reverse blocking voltage without breakdown |
| IO | 8 A - Continuous average forward current at TC = +115°C (derated from 150°C max TJ) |
| VF Max | 0.54 V - Forward voltage drop at IF = 8 A and TJ = +25°C; enables <0.5 W conduction loss |
| IR Max | 0.2 mA - Reverse leakage at VR = 60 V and TJ = +125°C; ensures low standby power loss |
| RθJC | 3 °C/W - Junction-to-case thermal resistance on high-conductivity Al board; supports high-power density layout |
| TJ Max | +150°C - Maximum operating junction temperature; allows operation in thermally constrained enclosures |
| Package | PowerDI5 - Surface-mount, thermally enhanced plastic package with exposed cathode pad |
Pinout & Package
PowerDI5 is a 3-terminal surface-mount package with an exposed cathode pad for thermal and electrical connection. Cathode is connected to the large bottom metal slug; anode and cathode terminals are accessible on opposite sides of the molded body.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (Pin 1) | Input current entry point | Connected to source/switch node; requires low-inductance trace routing |
| Cathode (Pin 2) | Output current exit point | Exposed metal pad - must be soldered to large copper pour for thermal management |
| Cathode (Pin 3) | Secondary cathode connection | Top-side terminal providing redundant cathode access; electrically tied to Pin 2 |
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 |
| +150°C junction rating | Supports reliable operation in sealed or high-ambient industrial power supplies |
| Soft, fast switching | Minimizes EMI generation during diode turn-off in high-frequency SMPS |
| Lead-free, halogen-free "Green" construction | Meets RoHS 3 and JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity Level 1 |
| Low RθJC (3 °C/W) | Allows >5 W continuous dissipation with ≤15°C rise above case temperature on Al board |
Applications
| DC-DC Converters | AC-DC Adapters |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Synchronous buck converter output stage in telecom POL modules. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Freewheeling diode replacing MOSFET body diode to reduce conduction loss and improve efficiency at light load.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Output rectifier delivering regulated 20 V to USB-PD controller and battery charging circuitry. Use Value: Stable 0.2 mA IR at +125°C prevents thermal runaway in enclosed adapter housings with limited airflow. |
| Industrial Motor Drives | LED Driver Power Supplies |
Use Scenario: Flyback diode across brushed DC motor coils in HVAC blower control. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Snubberless freewheel path absorbing inductive kickback energy during PWM switching. Use Value: Soft recovery minimizes voltage overshoot spikes, reducing need for external RC snubbers and saving board space. | Use Scenario: Constant-current output rectification in isolated LED driver for street lighting. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-reliability output rectifier operating continuously at +105°C ambient. Use Value: +150°C TJ rating and 3 °C/W RθJC enable 10+ year lifetime under sustained thermal stress without derating. |
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 | Same 60 V / 8 A rating; VF = 0.55 V @ 8 A; RθJC = 4.5 °C/W; TO-252 package | Larger footprint and higher thermal resistance limit power density in ultra-compact designs | Prefer when TO-252 compatibility or legacy layout reuse is required |
| ON Semiconductor SB860 | 60 V / 8 A; VF = 0.59 V @ 8 A; IR = 0.3 mA @ +125°C; PowerFLAT 5x6 package | Higher VF and IR degrade efficiency in thermally constrained, high-temperature environments | Acceptable where cost sensitivity outweighs 3–5% efficiency penalty at full load |
Compared with VS-8EWH06FN-M3 and SB860, SDT8A60VP5-7D delivers the lowest VF and best high-temperature IR stability in the smallest thermally optimized footprint, making it optimal for space- and efficiency-critical 60 V rectification.

FAQ
What is the recommended PCB pad layout for SDT8A60VP5-7D?
Diodes specifies a minimum 2 oz copper pad layout for the exposed cathode slug per package outline document DS42170. The recommended pad area is ≥25 mm² with thermal vias (≥6 × 0.3 mm) connecting to inner ground/power planes. This achieves the rated RθJC = 3 °C/W on aluminum board and mitigates solder joint fatigue under thermal cycling.
Does SDT8A60VP5-7D support synchronous rectification?
No - SDT8A60VP5-7D is a passive Schottky rectifier and does not integrate gate drive or control logic. It functions only as a unidirectional current path. For synchronous rectification, a discrete MOSFET paired with a dedicated gate driver IC is required; this device serves as the freewheeling element in non-synchronous topologies or as a backup path in synchronous designs.
How does the PowerDI5 package compare thermally to TO-252?
PowerDI5 offers lower RθJC (3 °C/W vs. typical 4.5–5.5 °C/W for TO-252) due to its thinner mold compound and direct thermal path from die to exposed cathode pad. Its smaller footprint (4.0 × 6.5 mm vs. 6.5 × 6.5 mm) also improves board-level thermal spreading when combined with optimized copper pours and vias.
Is SDT8A60VP5-7D suitable for automotive applications?
SDT8A60VP5-7D is not AEC-Q101 qualified and lacks automotive-specific reliability testing or PPAP documentation. While its +150°C rating meets under-hood temperature requirements, Diodes does not guarantee automotive-grade robustness for this part. For automotive use, select AEC-Q101-certified equivalents such as Diodes' APx60 series.
