Product details
Overview
STPSC8H065D from STMicroelectronics is an 8 A, 650 V silicon carbide (SiC) Schottky power diode in TO-220AC package, designed for high-efficiency PFC and hard-switching DC-DC converters. It delivers zero reverse recovery charge, temperature-independent switching behavior, 75 A non-repetitive surge current (10 ms), and 1.56 V typical forward voltage at 8 A and 25 °C.
For engineers reviewing the STPSC8H065D datasheet, STPSC8H065D pinout, STPSC8H065D application, or STPSC8H065D equivalent, key selection criteria include its 650 V VRRM, 175 °C maximum junction temperature, low 414 pF junction capacitance at 0 V, insulated thermal performance (Rth(j-c) = 2.45 °C/W typ.), and ECOPACK®2 compliance for industrial-grade reliability.
Technical Context
This SiC Schottky diode replaces conventional silicon fast recovery diodes in high-frequency, high-efficiency topologies. Its wide bandgap enables a 650 V blocking rating with near-zero Qrr, eliminating turn-off ringing and reducing EMI in LLC and boost stages.
The device operates across –40 to +175 °C junction temperature range and maintains stable VF and IR characteristics over temperature-VF increases only to 1.98 V (typ.) at 150 °C/8 A, while IR remains ≤335 µA at 150 °C/VRRM. Thermal resistance is specified at 1.3 °C/W (TO-220AC, typ.) and 2.45 °C/W (TO-220AC Ins, typ.).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 650 V - Enables use in 400 V bus PFC and 380–450 V DC-DC input stages without derating. |
| IF(AV) | 8 A at Tc = 140 °C - Supports continuous conduction mode operation in 300–500 W power supplies. |
| IFSM | 75 A (10 ms sinusoidal, Tc = 25 °C) - Withstands inrush and overload transients in AC-DC front ends. |
| VF | 1.56 V (typ., 8 A, 25 °C) - Reduces conduction loss vs. Si FRDs; enables >98% efficiency in critical PFC designs. |
| Cj | 414 pF (0 V, 1 MHz) - Low capacitive charge (Qcj = 23.5 nC at 400 V) minimizes switching loss in resonant converters. |
| Tj(max) | 175 °C - Allows compact heatsinking and operation in high-ambient industrial environments. |
| Rth(j-c) | 1.3 °C/W (typ., TO-220AC) - Enables direct mounting to aluminum heatsinks without thermal interface pads in many cases. |
Pinout & Package
STPSC8H065D uses the TO-220AC package: single-ended, through-hole, non-insulated, with metal tab (cathode) and two leads (anode and cathode). The case serves as the cathode terminal; anode is lead 1, cathode is lead 2 and tab.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (Lead 1) | Current entry point during forward conduction | Connected to input/bus side in boost/PFC; requires low-inductance layout to minimize voltage overshoot. |
| Cathode (Lead 2 & Tab) | Current exit point; common reference node | Tab is electrically connected to lead 2 and must be mounted to heatsink (cathode-referenced thermal path). |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No reverse recovery charge (Qrr ≈ 0) | Eliminates turn-off switching loss and associated EMI in hard-switched PFC and LLC circuits. |
| Temperature-stable switching behavior | VF and Cj variation < ±15% from 25 °C to 150 °C-enables predictable loss modeling across full operating range. |
| High surge capability (75 A, 10 ms) | Robustness against line surges and startup inrush without external snubbing or derating. |
| ECOPACK®2 compliance | Meets RoHS, halogen-free, and material declaration requirements for industrial and energy infrastructure applications. |
| Low junction-to-case thermal resistance | 1.3 °C/W (typ.) enables efficient heat transfer to standard TO-220 heatsinks without thermal paste in moderate-power designs. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar SiC Schottky diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| C3D08065E (Wolfspeed) | Same 8 A/650 V rating, D²PAK package, Rth(j-c) = 1.5 °C/W (typ.), VF = 1.6 V (8 A, 25 °C) | Requires surface-mount assembly; higher thermal resistance than TO-220AC but better board-level EMI performance. | Select when automated SMT production and space-constrained PCB layout are priorities over through-hole serviceability. |
| SS12065 (Littelfuse) | 8 A/650 V, TO-220AC, VF = 1.7 V (8 A, 25 °C), IFSM = 65 A (10 ms), Rth(j-c) = 1.4 °C/W (typ.) | Lower surge rating and slightly higher VF reduce margin in high-transient PFC designs. | Acceptable for cost-sensitive 500 W PFC where 10% lower surge headroom is acceptable and thermal design allows 0.1 °C/W margin. |
Compared with C3D08065E and SS12065, STPSC8H065D offers superior surge robustness (75 A vs. 65–70 A), lowest VF among TO-220AC SiC diodes, and proven field reliability in telecom and industrial PFC deployments since 2014.

FAQ
Is STPSC8H065D pin-compatible with standard TO-220AC silicon diodes?
Yes-STPSC8H065D uses the industry-standard TO-220AC footprint and pinout: anode on lead 1, cathode on lead 2 and metal tab. No PCB redesign is needed for drop-in replacement of legacy Si FRDs like STTH8R06D, though layout optimization for reduced parasitic inductance is recommended to fully exploit SiC benefits.
What is the maximum recommended case temperature for continuous operation?
The datasheet specifies IF(AV) = 8 A at Tc = 140 °C for TO-220AC. For reliable long-term operation, maintain Tc ≤ 135 °C under worst-case ambient and airflow conditions. Derating to 7 A is advised if heatsink thermal resistance exceeds 1.0 °C/W or ambient exceeds 70 °C.
Does STPSC8H065D require a gate drive or external control signal?
No-it is a passive two-terminal power diode with no gate terminal or control interface. It conducts when anode voltage exceeds cathode voltage by >1.5 V and blocks when reverse biased up to 650 V. No driver circuitry, biasing, or timing signals are required.
Can STPSC8H065D be used in parallel for higher current handling?
Parallel operation is not recommended due to positive temperature coefficient of VF-unlike Si diodes, SiC Schottkys exhibit slight VF increase with temperature, which can cause current imbalance under mismatched thermal conditions. For >8 A, select a higher-current variant (e.g., STPSC12H065D) instead.
