Product details
Overview
SS510ALH from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 5A, 100V Schottky barrier surface-mount rectifier in Thin SMA package, featuring low forward voltage (0.76 V at 5 A, 25°C), high surge capability (110 A IFSM), AEC-Q101 qualification, and junction temperature rating up to +150°C - deployed in automotive-grade DC/DC converters and industrial SMPS.
For engineers reviewing the SS510ALH datasheet, SS510ALH pinout, SS510ALH application, or SS510ALH equivalent, key selection criteria include reverse voltage margin (100 V VRRM), thermal resistance (RθJL = 17 °C/W), junction capacitance (164 pF), moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1), and RoHS/halogen-free compliance for high-reliability board assembly.
Technical Context
The SS510ALH implements a single-die Schottky junction optimized for low conduction loss in high-frequency switching topologies. Its 100 V peak reverse voltage and 5 A average forward current support continuous operation in buck-derived DC/DC stages with minimal thermal derating up to 125°C junction temperature.
Thermal performance is defined by RθJL = 17 °C/W and RθJA = 78 °C/W on a 5 mm × 5 mm Cu pad PCB - enabling compact layout without forced airflow. Reverse leakage remains ≤10 µA at 25°C and ≤1 mA at 125°C, critical for standby efficiency in always-on power rails.

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-50WQ04FN-M3/45 | 45 V VRRM, 5 A, TO-277 package, RθJA = 60 °C/W | Limited to ≤32 V systems; lower thermal resistance but lower voltage rating | Select when VIN ≤ 30 V and board space permits TO-277 footprint |
| ON Semiconductor SB5100-E3/54 | 100 V VRRM, 5 A, SMA package, VF = 0.85 V @ 5 A, 25°C | Higher forward drop increases conduction loss by ~0.45 W vs. SS510ALH | Acceptable where cost sensitivity outweighs 3–5% efficiency penalty in low-duty-cycle use |
Compared with VS-50WQ04FN-M3/45 and SB5100-E3/54, the SS510ALH delivers superior voltage margin (100 V), lowest VF in its class, and automotive qualification - making it optimal for 12/24 V automotive and industrial systems requiring robustness and efficiency.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for the SS510ALH?
The SS510ALH has a maximum junction temperature (TJ) rating of +150°C, verified per AEC-Q101 stress testing. This allows uninterrupted operation in under-hood automotive environments and sealed industrial enclosures. Derating begins above 125°C ambient, and thermal design must maintain TJ ≤ 150°C using the specified RθJL = 17 °C/W path to PCB copper. The SS510ALH datasheet confirms this limit applies across all operating conditions.
Is the SS510ALH suitable for automotive applications?
Yes, the SS510ALH is AEC-Q101 qualified and explicitly designed for automotive power systems including on-board DC/DC converters and body electronics. It meets HTOL, temperature cycling, and humidity testing requirements per AEC-Q101 Rev D. Its MSL Level 1 rating, halogen-free construction, and +150°C TJ rating align with automotive manufacturing and field reliability standards. The SS510ALH marking code "510ALH" is certified for automotive use in Taiwan Semiconductor's qualification report.
What is the forward voltage of the SS510ALH at 5 A and 125°C?
The SS510ALH exhibits a typical forward voltage of 0.63 V at 5 A and 125°C junction temperature, with a maximum of 0.80 V under those conditions. This low VF drift with temperature ensures stable efficiency during thermal transients. Measured per pulse test (PW = 0.3 ms), this value is documented in the Electrical Specifications table of the SS510ALH datasheet Version B2103.
Does the SS510ALH have a defined polarity marking?
Yes, the SS510ALH uses a cathode band to indicate polarity - a white or light-colored stripe on the package body adjacent to the cathode terminal. This marking complies with JEDEC standards and is visible under standard optical inspection. The anode is the unmarked end. Correct orientation is essential for functional rectification and reverse voltage protection; installing the SS510ALH backward will cause immediate failure under bias.
What packaging format is used for the SS510ALH?
The SS510ALH is supplied in Tape & Reel format, 14,000 units per reel, compatible with standard high-speed pick-and-place equipment. The Thin SMA package features matte tin-plated leads meeting J-STD-002 solderability requirements, and the reel labeling includes full part number, date code (YW), and factory code (F). This packaging supports automated SMT assembly without preconditioning due to MSL Level 1 classification - a key advantage over moisture-sensitive alternatives.
