Product details
Overview
SK35-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a surface-mount Schottky barrier rectifier rated for 50 V maximum recurrent peak reverse voltage, 3.0 A average forward current, and 0.50 V forward voltage at 3.0 A, used in DC/DC converter output stages and low-voltage AC-DC power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the SK35-7 datasheet, SK35-7 pinout, SK35-7 application, or SK35-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include VF vs. IR trade-off at 100°C, thermal resistance (RJA = 60°C/W), surge capability (100 A @ 8.3 ms), and SMC package compatibility with high-density PCB layouts.
Technical Context
This Schottky rectifier employs guard ring construction for transient protection and uses low-leakage epitaxial silicon to achieve 0.5 mA reverse current at 25°C and 20 mA at 100°C under full rated blocking voltage. Its 300 pF junction capacitance at 1 MHz and 4 V reverse bias supports switching frequencies up to several hundred kHz in flyback and buck topologies.
The device operates across –65°C to +150°C junction temperature and is mounted on 8.0 mm² copper land pads per JEDEC standards. It is not recommended for new designs; Diodes Incorporated recommends the B3X0 series as a replacement with improved thermal performance and lower VF.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 50 V - Maximum non-repetitive reverse voltage the device blocks without breakdown |
| I(AV) | 3.0 A - Continuous DC output current capability with derating above 75°C ambient |
| VF @ 3.0 A | 0.50 V - Forward conduction loss determining efficiency in low-voltage secondary-side rectification |
| IR @ 25°C | 0.5 mA - Reverse leakage limiting standby power loss in offline adapters |
| RJA | 60 °C/W - Thermal resistance from junction to ambient on standard 8.0 mm² pad, defining heatsinking requirement |
| CT | 300 pF - Junction capacitance affecting high-frequency switching noise and EMI filter design |
| TJ Range | –65°C to +150°C - Operating range enabling use in automotive under-hood and industrial motor drive environments |
Pinout & Package

Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Guard ring construction | Enhances ruggedness against voltage transients and improves reliability in unregulated input applications |

| UL 94V-0 flammability rating | Meets safety requirements for enclosed consumer and industrial power enclosures |
| Moisture sensitivity Level 1 | Enables standard SMT reflow without baking, reducing manufacturing overhead |
Applications
| AC-DC Adapter Output Stage | USB-C PD Secondary Rectification |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: 5 V/3 A output stage in compact wall adapters with 60 Hz input and synchronous rectification not implemented. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Uncontrolled Schottky rectifier providing low-loss DC output conversion after transformer secondary. Use Value: 0.50 V VF minimizes heat generation in space-constrained enclosures where thermal margin is <15°C. | Use Scenario: 9 V/2 A output rail in USB-C Power Delivery adapters operating at 100–200 kHz switching frequency. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-speed freewheeling diode in quasi-resonant flyback topology. Use Value: 300 pF capacitance ensures minimal switching loss increase while maintaining EMI compliance below 30 MHz. |
| Industrial PLC Power Supply | Automotive Infotainment DC/DC Input Protection |
Use Scenario: 24 V auxiliary supply feeding logic circuitry in programmable logic controllers exposed to –40°C to +70°C ambient. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Input-stage rectifier converting 36 VAC transformer output to regulated 24 VDC bus. Use Value: –65°C to +150°C operating range enables reliable operation during cold-start and sustained high-load conditions. | Use Scenario: Reverse-polarity protection and clamping in 12 V DC/DC converters powering head units in vehicles with battery disconnect events. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-VF freewheeling path during MOSFET body-diode conduction phase. Use Value: 0.5 mA IR at 25°C prevents excessive quiescent drain in always-on modules meeting ISO 16750-2 sleep current limits. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Schottky rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| B340A-13-F | 40 V VRRM, 3.0 A I(AV), 0.45 V VF @ 3 A, 500 pF CT | Limited to ≤40 V systems; higher capacitance increases EMI risk above 150 kHz | Preferred where lower VF outweighs reduced voltage margin and higher CT |
| SS35H | 50 V VRRM, 3.0 A I(AV), 0.52 V VF @ 3 A, RJA = 55°C/W | Improved thermal resistance enables 10% higher continuous current at same board area | Recommended when board-level thermal management is constrained and 0.02 V higher VF is acceptable |
Compared with SK35-7, B340A-13-F offers lower forward loss but sacrifices voltage headroom and high-frequency performance, while SS35H provides better thermal handling at a slight VF penalty-both require layout review for thermal pad and EMI filter adjustments.

FAQ
Is SK35-7 lead-free and RoHS compliant?
Yes, SK35-7 is RoHS compliant and available with matte tin lead-free plating. The part number suffix "-F" (e.g., SK35-7-F) explicitly denotes lead-free termination. Standard SK35-7 also meets J-STD-020A moisture sensitivity Level 1 and UL 94V-0 flammability requirements.
What is the maximum allowable junction temperature during surge events?
The absolute maximum junction temperature is +150°C. During a single 100 A, 8.3 ms half-sine surge, junction temperature rise is calculated using RθJA = 60°C/W and pulse energy; peak TJ remains below 150°C when ambient is ≤75°C and board copper area meets the 8.0 mm² pad specification.
Can SK35-7 replace SK34 in an existing design?
Yes, SK35-7 is a direct upgrade from SK34 (40 V rating) with identical SMC package, pinout, and thermal footprint. The 50 V VRRM provides additional margin against line transients and allows operation in higher-input-voltage derivatives without layout change.
Why is SK35-7 marked "Not Recommended for New Design"?
Diodes Incorporated issued this notice because the B3X0 series offers superior thermal resistance (RJA ≈ 45°C/W), lower VF (0.42 V @ 3 A), and tighter IR distribution. SK35-7 remains fully qualified and supported for legacy production, but new designs should evaluate B340A-13-F or B350A-13-F for improved efficiency and longevity.
