Product details
Overview
STPS10L25D from STMicroelectronics is a low-drop power Schottky rectifier in TO-220AC package, rated for 10 A average forward current and 25 V repetitive peak reverse voltage, with typical forward voltage of 0.30 V at 10 A and 125 °C, optimized for high-efficiency secondary-side rectification in 3.3 V switched-mode power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the STPS10L25D datasheet, STPS10L25D pinout, STPS10L25D application, or STPS10L25D equivalent, key selection criteria include conduction loss minimization (VF = 0.30 V typ. @ 10 A, 125 °C), avalanche-rated ruggedness (395 W peak), thermal resistance (Rth(j-c) = 1.5 °C/W), and TO-220AC mechanical compatibility for heatsink mounting.
Technical Context
This single-anode Schottky diode operates without minority-carrier storage, enabling zero reverse recovery time and minimal switching losses in high-frequency DC–DC converters. Its low VF and controlled reverse leakage (≤260 mA @ 125 °C, VR = 25 V) directly support efficiency targets in compact 3.3 V SMPS designs.
The device features specified avalanche capability (PARM = 395 W, tp = 10 µs, Tj = 125 °C) and thermal stability up to 150 °C junction temperature, with Rth(j-c) = 1.5 °C/W enabling predictable thermal design when mounted on standard heatsinks using 0.55 N·m torque.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| IF(AV) | 10 A - maximum continuous DC output current at TC = 140 °C, defining usable load capacity in SMPS secondary winding |
| VRRM | 25 V - peak reverse blocking voltage, suitable for 3.3 V output rails with margin against transient overshoot |
| VF (typ.) | 0.30 V @ 10 A, 125 °C - low conduction loss enabling <1.5 W dissipation at full load, reducing heatsink requirements |
| Rth(j-c) | 1.5 °C/W - junction-to-case thermal resistance, enabling direct thermal path to heatsink with verified derating |
| IFSM | 200 A @ 10 ms - surge current rating supporting inrush and fault tolerance in regulated DC–DC outputs |
| Tj (max) | 150 °C - maximum operating junction temperature, allowing operation in enclosed industrial power enclosures |
| IR (max) | 260 mA @ 125 °C, VR = VRRM - reverse leakage limit defining worst-case standby power loss in high-temp environments |
Pinout & Package
STPS10L25D uses the TO-220AC package: insulated case, single-row 3-lead outline with metal tab (anode connection), designed for vertical heatsink mounting and mechanical robustness in power supply assemblies.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (Tab) | Main current input terminal | Electrically connected to metal tab; must be isolated from chassis unless circuit ground reference requires common-anode configuration |
| Cathode (Lead 1) | Main current output terminal | Standard cathode output pin; carries full forward current to output filter capacitor or load rail |
| NC (Lead 2) | No connection | Unused lead-no internal bond; must remain unconnected per datasheet to avoid mechanical stress or shorting risk |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Very low VF | 0.30 V typ. @ 10 A, 125 °C - reduces conduction loss by >40% vs. standard silicon rectifiers at same current |
| Avalanche capability | 395 W peak power, 10 µs pulse - enables reliable operation during output short-circuit or transformer reset transients |
| Optimized loss trade-off | Conduction + reverse loss minimized jointly - achieves highest system efficiency in 300–500 kHz SMPS topologies |
| ECOPACK®2 compliance | Halogen-free, RoHS-compliant epoxy - meets industrial environmental standards without performance compromise |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Schottky rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STPS10L25G | D²PAK package (vs. TO-220AC); Rth(j-c) = 1.5 °C/W identical; 1.38 g weight vs. 1.86 g | Suitable for automated SMT assembly; requires PCB copper area per Fig. 10 footprint, not heatsink screw-mount | Select for volume production with reflow capability and space-constrained layouts |
| MBR1020CT | 20 V VRRM (vs. 25 V); dual-common-cathode configuration; VF = 0.55 V @ 10 A, 25 °C (higher than 0.30 V) | Requires redesign for lower reverse voltage margin; dual-diode layout adds routing complexity for single-output use | Select only if 20 V rating suffices and dual-diode topology aligns with existing board layout |
Compared with STPS10L25G, STPS10L25D offers mechanical mounting flexibility and legacy through-hole compatibility; compared with MBR1020CT, it delivers lower VF and higher VRRM-critical for 3.3 V SMPS reliability under transient overvoltage conditions.

FAQ
What is the recommended heatsink mounting torque for STPS10L25D?
The datasheet specifies a recommended torque value of 0.55 N·m for the TO-220AC package, with a maximum allowable torque of 0.7 N·m. Exceeding this risks mechanical damage to the leadframe or die attach, compromising thermal performance and long-term reliability under thermal cycling.
Does STPS10L25D require a snubber circuit in 400 kHz SMPS applications?
No snubber is required. As a Schottky diode, STPS10L25D has no reverse recovery charge (Qrr ≈ 0), eliminating voltage spikes caused by diode turn-off. Its low junction capacitance (typ. 10–30 nF) and absence of minority-carrier effects make it inherently compatible with hard-switched 400 kHz topologies without added loss or EMI.
How does the 25 V VRRM rating impact design margin for a 3.3 V output?
The 25 V VRRM provides ≥7× overvoltage margin relative to nominal 3.3 V output, accommodating worst-case reflected transients (e.g., 12 V flyback spikes in forward converters) and line-induced surges per IEC 61000-4-4/5. This margin ensures no breakdown under validated stress testing up to 20 V transient peaks.
Can STPS10L25D replace standard PN-junction rectifiers in existing designs?
Yes-direct replacement is feasible if the original design uses TO-220AC-packaged rectifiers with ≤25 V VRRM and ≤10 A IF(AV). Key benefits include immediate efficiency gain (lower VF), elimination of reverse recovery loss, and reduced heatsink size. No circuit changes are needed beyond verifying thermal interface and mounting torque.
