Product details
Overview
SS24H from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 2A, 40V Schottky barrier surface-mount rectifier in DO-214AA (SMB) package, qualified to AEC-Q101, with VF = 0.50 V at IF = 2A and TJ = 25°C, IR ≤ 400 µA at VR = 40V and TJ = 25°C, and IFSM = 50A for 8.3ms surge - used in automotive LED lighting and DC/DC converter freewheeling paths.
For engineers reviewing the SS24H datasheet, SS24H pinout, SS24H application, or SS24H equivalent, key selection criteria include its 40V VRRM rating, low 0.50 V forward drop at 2A, AEC-Q101 qualification, SMB package thermal resistance (RθJL = 24°C/W), and suitability for reverse battery protection in 12V automotive systems.
Technical Context
The SS24H implements a single-die Schottky junction optimized for low forward voltage and fast switching, with no recovery time and negligible minority-carrier storage. Its guard ring structure enhances over-voltage ruggedness while maintaining low leakage up to 100°C.
Designed for surface-mount assembly on PCBs with standard reflow profiles, it meets J-STD-002 solderability and JESD201 Class 2 whisker resistance requirements, and operates across –55°C to +150°C junction temperature range with moisture sensitivity level 1.
Key Specifications

| IF | 2 A continuous - rated average forward current; supports compact DC/DC converter output stages without forced cooling |
| VF @ 2A, 25°C | 0.50 V - low conduction loss enables >92% efficiency in 5–12V buck converters at full load |
| IR @ 40V, 25°C | ≤400 µA - minimal leakage preserves battery standby life in always-on vehicle modules |
| IFSM | 50 A - handles inrush and fault currents in automotive power rails without catastrophic failure |
| TJ max | +150°C - enables operation adjacent to hot engine-control electronics without derating |
| RθJL | 24°C/W - efficient heat transfer to PCB copper; allows 1.5W dissipation with 36°C rise above lead temperature |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Schottky rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SB240-E3/52 | VRRM = 40 V, VF = 0.55 V @ 2A, 25°C, RθJA = 75°C/W - higher thermal resistance and forward drop | Lacks AEC-Q101 qualification; not validated for automotive under-hood use | Preferred for cost-sensitive industrial DC/DC where automotive qualification is unnecessary |
| SS24HE3/52 | Same electrical specs and AEC-Q101 rating; identical DO-214AA package but Vishay marking and traceability | Functionally interchangeable; differs only in manufacturer-specific lot traceability and tape/reel packaging | Drop-in alternative if Taiwan Semiconductor supply is constrained; verify reel coding and date code compatibility |
Compared with SB240-E3/52 and SS24HE3/52, the SS24H offers lower VF and better thermal performance than the former, and matches the latter's automotive qualification while offering distinct supply-chain traceability and Taiwan Semiconductor's long-term product continuity commitment.

FAQ
What is the peak repetitive reverse voltage rating of the SS24H?
The SS24H has a peak repetitive reverse voltage (VRRM) rating of 40 V. This value is specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table and confirmed across all versions of the SS22H–SS215H datasheet. It defines the maximum reverse-bias voltage the device can block continuously without breakdown, making SS24H suitable for 12V automotive systems with transient overvoltage margins.
Is the SS24H qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, the SS24H is explicitly qualified to AEC-Q101 standards, as stated in the FEATURES section of the official Taiwan Semiconductor datasheet. This qualification includes stress testing for temperature cycling, humidity, mechanical shock, and other environmental conditions required for under-hood automotive deployment - confirming SS24H's suitability for safety-critical and long-lifecycle vehicle systems.
What is the forward voltage drop of the SS24H at 2A and 100°C junction temperature?
The SS24H exhibits a typical forward voltage (VF) of 0.40 V at IF = 2 A and TJ = 100°C, per the Electrical Specifications table. This lower VF at elevated temperature improves power conversion efficiency in thermally demanding applications such as LED drivers mounted near heat sources, and is a key differentiator versus higher-VF alternatives.
Does the SS24H have a defined moisture sensitivity level (MSL)?
Yes, the SS24H has a moisture sensitivity level of MSL 1, as documented in the FEATURES section. This means the device may be stored indefinitely at ambient conditions (<30°C / 60% RH) and requires no baking prior to standard reflow soldering - simplifying SMT line integration and eliminating process delays associated with MSL 3+ components.
What package type does the SS24H use, and what are its key mechanical attributes?
The SS24H uses the DO-214AA (SMB) surface-mount package. Key mechanical attributes include matte tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002, UL 94V-0 flammability-rated molding compound, cathode polarity indicated by a visible band, and a weight of approximately 0.093 g. Dimensions match JEDEC DO-214AA Issue D, with body size 4.60 × 3.95 × 2.20 mm.
