Product details
Overview
STPSC15H12G2Y-TR from STMicroelectronics is a 15 A, 1200 V silicon carbide (SiC) Schottky power diode in D²PAK HV package, designed for high-efficiency PFC, on-board chargers (OBC), and DC/DC converters in electric vehicles. It delivers zero reverse recovery, temperature-independent switching, 1.35 V typical forward voltage at 15 A and 25 °C, and 5.38 mm minimum anode-to-cathode creepage distance compliant with IEC-60664-1.
For engineers reviewing the STPSC15H12G2Y-TR datasheet, STPSC15H12G2Y-TR pinout, STPSC15H12G2Y-TR application, or STPSC15H12G2Y-TR equivalent, key selection criteria include its 175 °C maximum junction temperature, 94 nC capacitive charge at 800 V, 0.45 °C/W typical junction-to-case thermal resistance, and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive-grade reliability under hard-switching conditions.
Technical Context
This SiC Schottky diode replaces conventional silicon fast recovery diodes in high-voltage, high-frequency power conversion stages. Its wide bandgap enables a 1200 V blocking rating with negligible reverse recovery charge (Qrr ≈ 0) and minimal temperature dependence of VF and Cj.
The D²PAK HV package provides enhanced creepage (5.38 mm anode-to-cathode) and thermal performance (Rth(j-c) = 0.45 °C/W typ.), supporting operation up to 175 °C junction temperature while maintaining robust surge capability (IFSM = 105 A at 25 °C, 10 ms).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 1200 V - Enables direct use in 800 V EV battery systems with >50% voltage margin for transient overvoltage handling |
| IF(AV) | 15 A at Tc = 155 °C - Sustains continuous conduction in high-power PFC boost stages without derating |
| VF (typ.) | 1.35 V at 15 A, 25 °C - Reduces conduction loss vs. Si FRD (≈2.2–2.8 V), lowering thermal stress in compact OBC designs |
| QCj | 94 nC at VR = 800 V - Limits turn-off energy loss and EMI generation during hard switching in 100+ kHz DC/DC converters |
| Rth(j-c) | 0.45 °C/W (typ.) - Enables efficient heat transfer to heatsink, supporting high-power density layouts in space-constrained EV modules |
| Tj(max) | 175 °C - Allows full-rated operation in under-hood environments without active cooling or significant derating |
| Cj | 1200 pF at VR = 0 V - Predictable junction capacitance supports stable snubber design and EMI filtering across temperature |
Pinout & Package
Housed in D²PAK HV (TO-263HV) package with isolated tab (anode), this device has two terminals: Anode (A) and Cathode (K). The package features extended creepage (5.38 mm min. A–K) and UL94 V0 epoxy molding compound for high-voltage isolation in automotive power electronics.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (Tab) | High-side current entry point | Electrically connected to metal tab; must be mounted to heatsink with insulating thermal interface; serves as primary high-voltage node in boost PFC |
| Cathode (Lead) | Low-side current exit point | Single gull-wing lead; connects to output bus or switching node; carries full load current with minimal parasitic inductance |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q101 qualified | Validated for automotive powertrain applications including OBC and traction DC/DC, with full temperature cycling, HTRB, and H3TRB testing |
| No reverse recovery (Qrr ≈ 0) | Eliminates recovery-related switching losses and voltage overshoot, enabling higher frequency operation without snubbers |
| Temperature-stable VF and Cj | Forward voltage increases only ~0.4 V from 25 °C to 150 °C; capacitance variation <±15% across -40 to 175 °C |
| D²PAK HV creepage ≥5.38 mm | Meets reinforced insulation requirements per IEC-60664-1 for 800 V DC systems, reducing need for additional PCB spacing or potting |
| 105 A non-repetitive surge rating | Withstands cold-start inrush and load dump transients in EV charging systems without failure |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar SiC Schottky diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| C3D15120D-TR | Same 15 A / 1200 V rating; 1.45 V VF (typ.) at 15 A; Rth(j-c) = 0.55 °C/W; TO-247-2L package | Higher thermal resistance and larger footprint; requires more PCB area and mechanical mounting provisions | Prefer when legacy TO-247 heatsink infrastructure exists and creepage >5 mm is not required |
| SS15120S | 15 A / 1200 V; 1.55 V VF (typ.); Rth(j-c) = 0.50 °C/W; D²PAK-3L (non-HV) package; 3.2 mm A–K creepage | Lacks IEC-60664-1 compliance for 800 V systems due to reduced creepage; not AEC-Q101 qualified | Select only for cost-sensitive industrial non-automotive applications where 5.38 mm creepage is unnecessary |
Compared with C3D15120D-TR and SS15120S, STPSC15H12G2Y-TR uniquely combines AEC-Q101 qualification, D²PAK HV packaging with 5.38 mm creepage, and lowest VF (1.35 V) - making it the optimal choice for space-constrained, safety-critical EV power stages requiring IEC-60664-1 compliance and thermal efficiency.

FAQ
Is STPSC15H12G2Y-TR suitable for synchronous rectification?
No - it is a unidirectional Schottky diode with fixed anode–cathode polarity and no gate control. Synchronous rectification requires actively switched MOSFETs. This device serves as a passive, ultra-low-loss freewheeling or output rectifier where zero Qrr and low VF are critical.
What is the maximum recommended case temperature for continuous operation?
The datasheet specifies IF(AV) = 15 A at Tc = 155 °C. Operation above this case temperature requires current derating per Figure 3. At Tc = 175 °C, the maximum sustainable DC current drops to approximately 9.5 A to maintain Tj ≤ 175 °C with Rth(j-c) = 0.45 °C/W.
Does the D²PAK HV package require special PCB layout considerations?
Yes - the anode tab must be soldered to a large copper pour (≥30 cm² recommended per Figure 8) for thermal performance. Creepage between anode and cathode traces must maintain ≥5.38 mm on outer layers; inner-layer routing beneath the tab must avoid proximity to cathode net to preserve isolation integrity.
Can STPSC15H12G2Y-TR replace silicon diodes in existing 1200 V designs without circuit modification?
Yes - it is a direct drop-in replacement for TO-247 or D²PAK silicon FRDs in terms of voltage rating and average current, but system-level benefits (reduced heatsink size, higher switching frequency, lower EMI) may require minor snubber or gate-drive tuning due to its near-zero reverse recovery and faster switching transitions.
