Product details
Overview
SS515FSH from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 5A, 150V Schottky barrier surface-mount rectifier in SOD-128 package, featuring 0.81V forward voltage at 5.0A/25°C, 126pF junction capacitance, 110A surge rating, and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive-grade reliability in DC/DC converters and SMPS.
For engineers reviewing the SS515FSH datasheet, SS515FSH pinout, SS515FSH application, or SS515FSH equivalent, key selection criteria include reverse voltage margin (150V VRRM), thermal resistance (RθJL = 13°C/W), low leakage (<10µA @ 25°C), moisture sensitivity level 1 compliance, and SOD-128 footprint compatibility with automated placement.
Technical Context
The SS515FSH operates as a single-die Schottky rectifier optimized for high-frequency switching applications, leveraging metal–semiconductor junction physics to minimize conduction loss and recovery time. Its 150V peak reverse voltage and 5A average forward current support mid-voltage DC/DC stages where efficiency and thermal management are critical.
Thermal performance is defined by RθJL = 13°C/W and RθJA = 63°C/W on a 5mm × 5mm Cu pad, enabling stable operation up to TJ = 150°C. Reverse leakage remains ≤10µA at 25°C and ≤1mA at 125°C, ensuring low standby power in always-on systems.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for SS515FSH?
The SS515FSH has a maximum junction temperature (TJ) rating of +150°C. This specification allows the device to operate reliably in high-temperature environments such as under-hood automotive locations or enclosed industrial power supplies. Thermal design must ensure that actual junction temperature stays within this limit using the published RθJL = 13°C/W and RθJA = 63°C/W values. The SS515FSH datasheet confirms this rating applies across its full operating range.
Is SS515FSH suitable for automotive applications?
Yes, the SS515FSH is AEC-Q101 qualified, meaning it has passed rigorous stress testing required for automotive electronic components-including high-temperature reverse bias, high-temperature gate bias, and temperature cycling. Its 150V VRRM, low leakage (<10µA at 25°C), and moisture sensitivity level 1 make it appropriate for automotive lighting, ADAS power modules, and infotainment DC/DC converters. The SS515FSH meets these requirements as documented in Taiwan Semiconductor's official qualification report.
What is the forward voltage of SS515FSH at 5A and 125°C?
The SS515FSH exhibits a maximum forward voltage of 0.77V at 5.0A and 125°C, with a typical value of 0.67V under the same conditions. This low VF at elevated temperature ensures stable efficiency during thermal transients and continuous high-load operation. These values are measured per pulse test (PW = 0.3ms) and are specified in the Electrical Specifications table of the SS515FSH datasheet.
Does SS515FSH have halogen-free and RoHS-compliant construction?
Yes, the SS515FSH is halogen-free in accordance with IEC 61249-2-21 and RoHS compliant per EU Directive 2011/65/EU. The molding compound, lead finish, and internal materials meet both environmental standards without exception. This compliance is explicitly stated in the Features section of the SS515FSH datasheet and verified through material declarations provided by Taiwan Semiconductor.
What packaging format is available for SS515FSH?
The SS515FSH is supplied in tape-and-reel packaging with 14,000 units per reel, compatible with high-speed automated pick-and-place equipment. The SOD-128 package uses matte tin-plated leads meeting J-STD-002 solderability requirements. This packaging format supports standard SMT assembly processes without modification. The SS515FSH ordering code and packing details are confirmed in the Ordering Information section of the official datasheet.
