Product details
Overview
SS310ALH from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 3A, 100V Schottky barrier surface-mount rectifier in Thin SMA package, featuring low forward voltage (0.76 V at 3.0 A, 25°C), high surge capability (70 A IFSM), AEC-Q101 qualification, and junction temperature rating up to +150°C. It serves as a primary output rectifier in compact DC/DC converters for automotive infotainment systems.
For engineers reviewing the SS310ALH datasheet, SS310ALH pinout, SS310ALH application, or SS310ALH equivalent, key selection criteria include reverse voltage margin (100 V VRRM), thermal resistance (RθJL = 19 °C/W), junction capacitance (86 pF), and automotive-grade reliability per AEC-Q101.
Technical Context
The SS310ALH uses a single-die Schottky structure optimized for low conduction loss in medium-voltage switching applications. Its 100 V VRRM and 0.76 V VF at 3 A balance efficiency and breakdown safety margin in 48 V–60 V input DC/DC stages.
Thermal performance is defined by RθJL = 19 °C/W and RθJA = 81 °C/W on a 5 mm × 5 mm Cu pad, enabling reliable operation at full 3 A load up to +125°C ambient when mounted per recommended layout.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 100 V - Maximum repetitive reverse blocking voltage; sets upper limit for DC bus voltage in buck-derived topologies |
| IF | 3 A continuous - Rated average forward current; defines steady-state power delivery capacity |
| IFSM | 70 A (8.3 ms) - Peak non-repetitive surge current; supports cold-start inrush and transient overload |
| VF | 0.76 V @ 3.0 A, 25°C - Forward drop directly impacts conduction loss and thermal design in high-efficiency SMPS |
| CJ | 86 pF @ 1 MHz, 4 V - Junction capacitance affects switching loss and EMI in high-frequency (>300 kHz) converters |
| TJ max | +150°C - Maximum junction temperature enables operation in under-hood automotive environments |
| RθJL | 19 °C/W - Low junction-to-lead thermal resistance allows efficient heat transfer to PCB copper |
Pinout & Package
Package: Thin SMA - Surface-mount package with matte tin-plated leads, moisture sensitivity level 1 (J-STD-020), UL 94V-0 molding compound, and cathode band polarity marking.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Input current entry point | Connected to higher-potential node (e.g., switch node in synchronous buck); requires thermal relief pad for soldering |
| Cathode | Output current exit point | Connected to output rail; cathode band identifies terminal; must be routed with low-inductance path to minimize ringing |
Key Features

|---|---|
| AEC-Q101 qualified | Validated for automotive electronics per stress test requirements including temperature cycling, HTRB, and ESD |
| Low VF at high current | 0.63 V @ 3.0 A, 125°C - Reduces conduction loss by ~18% vs. comparable 100 V Schottkys at elevated temperature |
| Thin SMA package | Height ≤ 2.3 mm - Enables ultra-low-profile power stages in space-constrained modules like ADAS camera ECUs |
| High IFSM/IF ratio | 70 A / 3 A = 23.3 - Supports >20× overload tolerance for short-duration transients without bond-wire failure |
| Halogen-free & RoHS | Complies with IEC 61249-2-21 and EU RoHS Directive - Required for automotive OEM supply chain compliance |

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-3EY10-M3/5BT | Same 100 V VRRM, 3 A IF, but VF = 0.79 V @ 3 A (25°C); RθJA = 90 °C/W | Slightly higher conduction loss; less suitable for thermally constrained 125°C ambient designs | Preferred where cost sensitivity outweighs 3% efficiency penalty and thermal margin is ample |
| ON Semiconductor SB3100 | 100 V VRRM, 3 A IF, VF = 0.82 V @ 3 A (25°C); not AEC-Q101 qualified | Lacks automotive qualification; junction temp limited to +125°C | Acceptable for industrial lighting or consumer adapters where automotive reliability is not required |
Compared with VS-3EY10-M3/5BT and SB3100, the SS310ALH delivers lower forward voltage, superior thermal resistance, and certified AEC-Q101 compliance-making it the optimal choice for automotive and high-reliability industrial DC/DC converters requiring long-term stability at elevated temperatures.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for the SS310ALH?
The SS310ALH has a maximum junction temperature (TJ) rating of +150°C, verified per AEC-Q101 stress testing. This allows sustained operation in under-hood automotive environments and sealed industrial enclosures. Derating curves in the datasheet confirm 3 A continuous current is maintainable up to +125°C ambient when mounted on a 5 mm × 5 mm Cu pad. The SS310ALH must not exceed this limit to ensure long-term reliability and parametric stability.
Is the SS310ALH pin-compatible with other parts in the SS3xALH series?
Yes-the SS310ALH shares identical Thin SMA package dimensions, lead finish, polarity marking (cathode band), and mechanical footprint with SS34ALH through SS320ALH. All variants use the same anode/cathode terminal configuration and mounting recommendations. However, electrical parameters-including VRRM, VF, and IR-vary by voltage grade, so direct substitution requires verification of reverse voltage margin and thermal performance in the target circuit.
Does the SS310ALH meet automotive qualification standards?
Yes, the SS310ALH is explicitly qualified to AEC-Q101 Rev D for discrete semiconductors. Testing includes HTGB, HTRB, temperature cycling, ESD (HBM ≥ 2 kV), and mechanical robustness per JESD201 Class 2 whisker resistance. This qualification is documented in Taiwan Semiconductor's official certification report and applies specifically to the SS310ALH lot release, not inferred from family-level data.
What is the typical junction capacitance of the SS310ALH and how does it affect high-frequency operation?
The SS310ALH exhibits a typical junction capacitance (CJ) of 86 pF measured at 1 MHz and 4 V reverse bias. This value directly influences switching loss and EMI generation in converters operating above 300 kHz. Lower CJ versus higher-voltage variants (e.g., SS320ALH at 54 pF) reflects optimized die geometry-enabling faster recovery and reduced capacitive turn-on loss in high-frequency synchronous rectification stages.
How does the forward voltage of the SS310ALH change with temperature and current?
The SS310ALH forward voltage decreases with rising junction temperature: at 3.0 A, VF drops from 0.76 V at 25°C to 0.63 V at 125°C. This negative temperature coefficient improves thermal stability in parallel configurations. At fixed temperature, VF increases linearly with current-reaching 0.88 V (max) at 3.0 A and 25°C. These values are measured per JEDEC JESD24-11 pulse conditions and define conduction loss boundaries for thermal modeling of the SS310ALH.
