Product details
Overview
STPS2150AFN from STMicroelectronics is a 150 V, 2 A surface-mount Schottky power rectifier in SMA Flat Notch package, optimized for high-frequency DC/DC converters and SMPS on ≤24 V rails. It delivers low forward voltage (0.62 V typ. at 125 °C, 2 A), negligible switching losses, and avalanche-rated operation up to 170 W (10 µs pulse) for robust transient handling in telecom and computing power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the STPS2150AFN datasheet, STPS2150AFN pinout, STPS2150AFN application, or STPS2150AFN equivalent, key selection criteria include forward voltage drop at elevated temperature, thermal resistance (20 °C/W junction-to-lead), avalanche capability, ECOPACK2 compliance, and SMA Flat Notch footprint compatibility with high-density PCB layouts.
Technical Context
This Schottky rectifier operates without minority-carrier storage delay, enabling zero reverse recovery charge and eliminating switching losses in high-frequency topologies. Its metal–semiconductor junction supports continuous conduction up to 175 °C junction temperature and withstands repetitive 150 V reverse voltage with leakage <1.5 µA at 25 °C.
The device uses planar construction with gold-metallized cathode band marking and is qualified per JEDEC standards for surface-mount reliability. Thermal performance is defined by junction-to-lead resistance (20 °C/W), not junction-to-ambient, requiring PCB copper area design per Figure 11 for safe operation at full 2 A average current.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 150 V - Maximum repetitive reverse blocking voltage; defines safe operating limit in flyback/freewheeling paths |
| IF(AV) | 2 A - Average forward current at TL = 145 °C; sets continuous power delivery capacity in DC/DC output stage |
| VF(typ.) | 0.62 V @ 125 °C, 2 A - Low conduction loss enables >92% efficiency in 12 V → 5 V buck converters |
| Rth(j-L) | 20 °C/W - Junction-to-lead thermal resistance; requires ≥1.2 cm² copper per lead for 2 A derating per Figure 11 |
| PARM | 170 W @ 10 µs, Tj = 125 °C - Avalanche energy rating ensures survivability during inductive turn-off transients |
| Tj(max) | +175 °C - Maximum junction temperature; allows operation in sealed telecom enclosures without forced air |
| ECOPACK2 | Compliant - Halogen-free, RoHS-compliant packaging meeting EU environmental directives for industrial use |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Schottky rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SS215H | Same 150 V VRRM, 2 A IF(AV), but SMA package (not Flat Notch); Rth(j-L) = 20 °C/W identical; VF = 0.72 V typ. @ 125 °C | No flat notch; requires different PCB footprint and lacks cathode band visual indicator | Select when legacy SMA land pattern exists and cathode marking is less critical than footprint reuse |
| SB2150 | 150 V VRRM, 2 A IF(AV), DO-15 axial package; higher Rth(j-a) = 30 °C/W; VF = 0.75 V typ. @ 125 °C | Through-hole mounting only; unsuitable for automated SMT assembly or high-density boards | Select only for prototyping or low-volume through-hole designs where thermal mass compensates for lower efficiency |
Compared with SS215H and SB2150, STPS2150AFN provides the lowest forward voltage in its class with standardized SMA Flat Notch mounting, enabling tighter thermal management and automated optical inspection via cathode band-critical for high-reliability telecom and server power modules.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable PCB copper area for STPS2150AFN at 2 A continuous current?
Per Figure 11 in DS3282 Rev 8, the recommended minimum copper area under each lead is 1.2 cm² on FR4 board with 35 µm copper thickness. This achieves ~40 °C/W junction-to-ambient resistance, allowing full 2 A operation at 70 °C ambient without exceeding 145 °C lead temperature.
Does STPS2150AFN require a heatsink in typical 2 A applications?
No heatsink is required if PCB copper area per lead meets the 1.2 cm² minimum specified in Figure 11. The 20 °C/W junction-to-lead thermal resistance enables sufficient self-cooling via conduction through leads into copper planes, provided solder joint integrity and board stack-up meet IPC-7095 guidelines.
How does the avalanche rating of STPS2150AFN improve system reliability?
The 170 W avalanche power rating (at 10 µs, Tj = 125 °C) allows the device to absorb inductive energy during MOSFET turn-off events without failure. This protects against voltage overshoot in synchronous rectifier configurations and extends lifetime in telecom power supplies exposed to frequent load transients.
Is STPS2150AFN compatible with lead-free reflow profiles?
Yes-STPS2150AFN is qualified for standard lead-free reflow per J-STD-020, with peak temperature up to 260 °C for 10 seconds. The epoxy meets UL 94 V0 and the SMA Flat Notch package withstands thermal cycling without delamination or solder joint fracture under IPC-9701 Class 2 conditions.
