Product details
Overview
SRAS850 from Taiwan Semiconductor is a single-die Schottky barrier rectifier in TO-263AB (D2PAK) package, rated for 50 V repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM), 8 A average forward current (IF), and 150 A non-repetitive surge current (IFSM). It delivers low forward voltage drop (0.70 V at 8 A, 25°C) and supports high-efficiency switching mode power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the SRAS850 datasheet, SRAS850 pinout, SRAS850 application, or SRAS850 equivalent, key selection factors include its 50 V VRRM, 0.70 V VF at full load, 150 A IFSM, junction-to-case thermal resistance of 3 °C/W, and TO-263AB surface-mount compatibility with automated placement.
Technical Context
The SRAS850 operates as a unidirectional power rectifier optimized for high-frequency DC/DC conversion and AC/DC adapter front-end stages. Its Schottky architecture enables zero minority-carrier storage, eliminating reverse recovery loss - critical for efficiency in 100–500 kHz SMPS topologies.
Thermally, it features a low RθJC of 3 °C/W and maximum junction temperature of 150°C, enabling sustained 8 A conduction under forced-air or PCB copper heatsinking. Guard ring design provides intrinsic overvoltage protection without external snubbers.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 50 V - Maximum reverse blocking capability; defines safe operating range in 48 V bus or 36 V output DC/DC converters |
| IF | 8 A - Continuous forward current rating at TC = 110°C; supports 100 W+ power stages with standard PCB copper area |
| VF | 0.70 V @ 8 A, 25°C - Low conduction loss; reduces rectifier dissipation to ~5.6 W at full load |
| IFSM | 150 A - Withstands 8.3 ms half-sine surges; handles inrush and fault transients in offline adapters |
| RθJC | 3 °C/W - Enables direct thermal path to heatsink or large copper pour; limits ΔTJ-C to 24°C at 8 A |
| TJ max | 150°C - Extended thermal rating allows operation in sealed industrial enclosures without derating |
| IR | 100 µA @ 50 V, 25°C - Low leakage preserves standby efficiency in energy-sensitive applications |
Pinout & Package
Package: TO-263AB (D2PAK), surface-mount, single-anode/single-cathode configuration. Exposed cathode tab serves as primary thermal and electrical connection point.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (Lead 2) | Input current terminal | Connected to AC or switching node; requires trace width ≥ 1.5 mm for 8 A continuous routing |
| Cathode (Tab + Lead 3) | Output current terminal & thermal path | Exposed metal tab must be soldered to ≥ 4 cm² internal/external copper for thermal performance; electrically common with lead 3 |
| NC (Lead 1) | No connection | Unused lead; left floating or omitted in footprint; no electrical function |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Guard ring structure | Prevents edge breakdown at 50 V VRRM, enabling stable operation under voltage transients without external clamping |
| Moisture sensitivity level 1 | Zero bake requirement before reflow; compatible with standard J-STD-020 assembly flow |
| Matte tin-plated leads | Ensures reliable solder wetting and intermetallic formation per J-STD-002; eliminates lead-free solder voiding risk |
| UL 94V-0 molding compound | Meets flammability safety requirements for enclosed power supplies in Class II consumer and industrial equipment |

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-8EWH05FN-M3 | Same TO-263AB package, 50 V VRRM, but higher VF (0.75 V @ 8 A); RθJC = 3.5 °C/W | Slightly lower efficiency at full load; less thermal headroom in compact layouts | Acceptable where 0.05 V VF penalty is tolerable and thermal margin exceeds 5°C |
| ON Semiconductor SB850 | Identical VRRM, IF, and VF; same TO-263AB package but marked "SB850" and qualified to AEC-Q101 | Automotive-grade qualification adds cost; no functional difference in industrial/commercial use | Preferred only if automotive qualification is contractually required; otherwise SRAS850 offers identical performance at lower cost |
Compared with VS-8EWH05FN-M3 and SB850, the SRAS850 delivers the lowest VF among 50 V/8 A Schottkys in D2PAK, with best-in-class thermal resistance - making it optimal for space-constrained, thermally aggressive 65–100 W power designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for the SRAS850?
The SRAS850 has a maximum junction temperature (TJ) rating of 150°C, verified per absolute maximum ratings table in the official Taiwan Semiconductor datasheet revision K2103. This allows uninterrupted 8 A operation at case temperatures up to 110°C when mounted on ≥4 cm² copper, making SRAS850 suitable for sealed or high-ambient industrial environments where thermal headroom is limited.
Does the SRAS850 have a guarded junction, and why does it matter?
Yes, the SRAS850 incorporates a guard ring structure explicitly stated in its features list. This design prevents premature edge breakdown under transient overvoltage conditions - critical in SMPS applications where line spikes or ringing can exceed steady-state VRRM. For SRAS850, this means reliable 50 V blocking capability even during 100 V/µs dv/dt events without external snubbers.
Is the SRAS850 compatible with lead-free reflow processes?
Yes, the SRAS850 uses matte tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002 and has moisture sensitivity level 1 per J-STD-020 - meaning it can be placed directly into standard lead-free reflow profiles (peak 260°C) without baking. The device's UL 94V-0 molding compound also withstands repeated thermal cycling without delamination, ensuring long-term reliability in SRAS850-based assemblies.
What is the reverse leakage current specification for the SRAS850 at elevated temperature?
Per the Electrical Specifications table, the SRAS850 exhibits ≤5 mA reverse leakage current (IR) at rated 50 V reverse voltage and TJ = 100°C. At 125°C, leakage remains unspecified in the datasheet, but the 100 µA value at 25°C and 50 V confirms tight process control - essential for minimizing standby power loss in energy-efficient adapters using SRAS850.
Can the SRAS850 replace the SRAS840 in an existing design?
Yes, the SRAS850 is a direct upgrade from SRAS840 (40 V VRRM) with identical TO-263AB package, pinout, and thermal characteristics - only differing in higher 50 V VRRM and slightly higher VF (0.70 V vs. 0.55 V). Using SRAS850 improves voltage margin in 36 V systems without layout changes, though efficiency may decrease marginally at light loads due to higher VF.
