Product details
Overview
SS25L from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 2 A, 50 V Schottky barrier surface-mount rectifier in Sub SMA package, featuring 0.70 V forward voltage at 2 A and 10 mA reverse current at 100°C, optimized for high-efficiency DC-DC converters and switching power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the SS25L datasheet, SS25L pinout, SS25L application, or SS25L equivalent, key selection criteria include its 50 V repetitive peak reverse voltage, 50 A surge rating, 17 °C/W junction-to-lead thermal resistance, and compatibility with automated SMT assembly per J-STD-002.
Technical Context
The SS25L employs a single-die Schottky structure with guard ring overvoltage protection and matte tin-plated leads meeting JESD 201 Class 2 whisker requirements. Its 125°C maximum junction temperature and level-1 moisture sensitivity support reflow-compatible manufacturing.
Designed for low-loss unidirectional conduction, the SS25L delivers 0.70 V forward drop at rated 2 A load and maintains ≤10 mA reverse leakage up to 100°C - enabling stable operation in thermally constrained SMPS secondary-side rectification.

Use Value: 17 °C/W RθJL allows direct thermal transfer to metal-core PCB, eliminating need for external heatsink. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Schottky rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SS25A (ON Semiconductor) | Same 50 V VRRM, 2 A IF, but VF = 0.55 V @ 2 A; Sub SMA package with identical footprint | Lower forward drop improves efficiency in battery-powered systems with tight thermal budgets | Select SS25A when <0.6 V VF is required; verify layout compatibility via mechanical drawing revision |
| SB250 (Vishay) | 50 V VRRM, 2 A IF, VF = 0.72 V @ 2 A; SMA package (slightly larger than Sub SMA), 75 °C/W RθJA | Higher thermal resistance requires additional copper pour or airflow; suitable for lower-power adapters | Choose SB250 only if existing SMA land pattern must be reused; derate IF to 1.6 A at 75°C ambient |
Compared with SS25A and SB250, the SS25L offers balanced trade-offs: higher VF than SS25A but tighter thermal performance than SB250, making it optimal for space-constrained 2 A SMPS where Sub SMA footprint and 17 °C/W RθJL are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for the SS25L?
The SS25L has a maximum junction temperature (TJ) of +125°C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This rating applies under steady-state conditions with proper thermal management using the Sub SMA package's 17 °C/W junction-to-lead thermal resistance. Operation beyond 125°C risks irreversible degradation of the Schottky junction. The SS25L datasheet confirms this limit across all SS2xL variants including SS25L.
Does the SS25L have a halogen-free construction?
Yes, the SS25L is halogen-free in accordance with IEC 61249-2-21, as explicitly stated in the FEATURES section of the official Taiwan Semiconductor datasheet. The molding compound contains no bromine, chlorine, or other regulated halogens, supporting compliance with environmental directives for consumer and industrial electronics. This specification applies directly to the SS25L and all SS2xL series devices.
What is the reverse leakage current of the SS25L at 50 V and 100°C?
The SS25L exhibits a maximum reverse leakage current (IR) of 10 mA at 50 V reverse voltage and 100°C junction temperature, per the ELECTRICAL SPECIFICATIONS table. This value is confirmed for SS25L and SS26L in the "SS25L SS26L" column under the IR row. It reflects worst-case behavior under sustained thermal stress and is critical for standby power budgeting in energy-efficient designs using SS25L.
Is the SS25L compatible with lead-free reflow soldering profiles?
Yes, the SS25L supports lead-free reflow soldering per J-STD-002, enabled by its matte tin-plated leads and level-1 moisture sensitivity rating. The Sub SMA package withstands peak temperatures up to 260°C for 10 seconds without delamination or parametric shift. Taiwan Semiconductor's documentation confirms SS25L's qualification for standard Pb-free reflow, making it suitable for modern SMT lines processing SS25L.
How does the SS25L's forward voltage compare to the SS24L and SS26L?
The SS25L has a typical forward voltage (VF) of 0.70 V at 2 A and 25°C, matching the SS26L and differing from the SS24L (0.50 V). This reflects the trade-off between higher reverse voltage rating (50 V for SS25L vs. 40 V for SS24L) and increased barrier height. All three share identical Sub SMA packaging and thermal specs, but SS25L's VF is confirmed in the datasheet's "SS25L SS26L" column - a key differentiator when selecting among SS2xL variants like SS25L.
