Product details
Overview
STPSC10H12WL from STMicroelectronics is a 1200 V, 10 A silicon carbide Schottky power rectifier in DO-247 LL package, designed for high-efficiency PFC and secondary-side rectification in industrial SMPS and solar inverters. It delivers no reverse recovery, 1.35 V typical forward voltage at 10 A, and operates from –40 °C to +175 °C junction temperature.
For engineers reviewing the STPSC10H12WL datasheet, STPSC10H12WL pinout, STPSC10H12WL application, or STPSC10H12WL equivalent, this SiC diode is selected for hard-switching topologies requiring zero-recovery loss, low capacitive charge (57 nC), and robust surge capability (60 A @ TC = 150 °C, tp = 10 ms).
Technical Context
This SiC Schottky diode replaces conventional silicon fast recovery diodes in high-voltage, high-frequency switching applications. Its wide band-gap material enables stable VF vs. temperature behavior and eliminates minority-carrier storage delay - confirmed by negligible ringing and <60 µA reverse leakage at 1200 V and 25 °C.
The device exhibits temperature-independent switching characteristics: total capacitive charge remains at 57 nC (typ.) up to 800 V reverse bias, and junction-to-case thermal resistance is 0.70 °C/W (typ.), enabling reliable operation under sustained 10 A DC conduction with minimal thermal derating.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 1200 V - supports 800–1000 V DC bus designs with ≥20 % margin against transients in solar string inverters and EV chargers. |
| IF(AV) | 10 A @ TC = 150 °C - rated for continuous conduction in TO-247-equivalent footprint without forced air cooling. |
| VF (typ) | 1.35 V @ IF = 10 A, Tj = 25 °C - reduces conduction loss by ~35 % vs. comparable Si FRD, lowering heatsink requirements. |
| QCJ (typ) | 57 nC @ VR = 800 V - minimizes turn-off energy loss and EMI generation in 50–100 kHz PFC stages. |
| Rth(j-c) (typ) | 0.70 °C/W - enables 175 °C max junction operation with ≤20 K rise over case at full load, simplifying thermal design. |
| IFSM | 60 A @ tp = 10 ms, TC = 150 °C - withstands inrush and overload surges in industrial UPS and motor drives. |
Pinout & Package
STPSC10H12WL uses the DO-247 LL package - a high-power, surface-mount-compatible variant of the industry-standard DO-247 outline, optimized for low-inductance layout and high thermal conductivity via copper tab mounting. The package features two terminals: anode and cathode, with the metal tab electrically connected to the cathode.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward current entry point | Connected to AC/switching node side; must be routed with low-inductance trace to minimize voltage overshoot during di/dt events. |
| Cathode (Tab) | Forward current exit / thermal path | Electrically tied to cathode; serves as primary heat dissipation path - requires direct thermal interface to PCB copper pour or heatsink. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No reverse recovery | Eliminates reverse recovery charge (Qrr = 0) and associated switching losses - verified across –40 °C to +175 °C. |
| Temperature-stable switching | Capacitive turn-off behavior and VF drift remain consistent; QCJ varies <±5 % from 25 °C to 150 °C. |
| High surge robustness | 60 A non-repetitive surge rating at 150 °C case temperature ensures reliability during line transients and startup surges. |
| Wide operating temperature | Rated for continuous operation from –40 °C to +175 °C junction temperature - suitable for under-hood automotive and industrial environments. |
| ECOPACK®2 compliance | Halogen-free, RoHS-compliant construction with UL94 V0 epoxy - meets stringent environmental and safety requirements for global deployments. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-voltage SiC Schottky diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| C4D10120A (Wolfspeed) | Same 1200 V / 10 A rating; VF = 1.55 V (typ.) at 10 A; Rth(j-c) = 0.85 °C/W; DO-247 package. | Slightly higher VF increases conduction loss by ~15 %; lower thermal conductivity may require larger copper area. | Preferred where supply chain diversification is required and 0.2 V VF penalty is acceptable for identical footprint. |
| SS12120 (Littelfuse) | 1200 V / 10 A; VF = 1.45 V (typ.); Rth(j-c) = 0.75 °C/W; TO-247-2L package (not surface-mount compatible). | TO-247 through-hole mounting limits PCB density; higher thermal resistance than STPSC10H12WL's DO-247 LL. | Only suitable when legacy TO-247 layout exists and surface-mount assembly is not feasible. |
Compared with C4D10120A and SS12120, STPSC10H12WL offers the lowest VF (1.35 V), best thermal resistance (0.70 °C/W), and native surface-mount DO-247 LL footprint - delivering superior power density and efficiency in space-constrained, high-reliability industrial converters.

FAQ
Is STPSC10H12WL a unidirectional or bidirectional device?
STPSC10H12WL is a unidirectional silicon carbide Schottky rectifier. It conducts only from anode to cathode under forward bias and blocks up to 1200 V in reverse. Unlike bipolar devices, it has no minority-carrier injection and cannot conduct in reverse - confirmed by <60 µA leakage at rated VRRM.
What is the maximum recommended soldering temperature for DO-247 LL package?
The DO-247 LL package is qualified for standard lead-free reflow per J-STD-020: peak temperature of 260 °C for ≤30 seconds, with ramp rates ≤3 °C/s. ST specifies a maximum board-side temperature of 245 °C at the tab center during reflow to avoid epoxy degradation while maintaining UL94 V0 compliance.
Can STPSC10H12WL replace a silicon fast recovery diode in an existing PFC design?
Yes - STPSC10H12WL can directly replace 1200 V Si FRDs in boost PFC stages without circuit modification. Its zero Qrr eliminates snubber networks, reduces EMI filter size, and improves efficiency by 0.5–1.2 % at full load. Layout must ensure low-inductance cathode routing due to its high di/dt capability.
Does STPSC10H12WL require a gate driver or external control signal?
No. STPSC10H12WL is a passive two-terminal power diode with no gate or control terminal. It operates autonomously based on applied voltage polarity and magnitude - forward conduction begins at ~1.35 V, and reverse blocking is maintained up to 1200 V without auxiliary circuitry.
