Product details
Overview
STPSC8H065DI from STMicroelectronics is an 8 A, 650 V silicon carbide (SiC) Schottky power diode in an insulated TO-220AC package, designed for high-efficiency PFC and LLC resonant converters. It delivers zero reverse recovery charge, temperature-independent switching, 75 A non-repetitive surge capability at 25 °C, and 2500 VRMS insulation - enabling robust operation in hard-switching industrial SMPS.
For engineers reviewing the STPSC8H065DI datasheet, STPSC8H065DI pinout, STPSC8H065DI application, or STPSC8H065DI equivalent, this SiC diode is selected for its ultra-low Qcj (23.5 nC), low Cj (414 pF @ 0 V), minimal thermal resistance (Rth(j-c) = 2.45 °C/W typ.), and ECOPACK®2 compliance in high-reliability power conversion designs.
Technical Context
This SiC Schottky diode replaces conventional silicon fast recovery diodes in high-frequency, high-efficiency topologies by eliminating reverse recovery losses and associated EMI. Its wide bandgap enables stable 650 V blocking with low forward voltage drift over temperature (VF = 1.98–2.50 V at 150 °C, IF = 8 A).
The insulated TO-220AC package provides 2500 VRMS isolation between case and die, reducing system-level creepage/clearance requirements while maintaining low junction-to-case thermal resistance (2.45 °C/W typ.) and 7 pF typical package capacitance - critical for minimizing gate drive coupling in half-bridge configurations.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 650 V - Enables use in 400 V DC bus PFC stages with 30%+ safety margin against transients. |
| IF(AV) | 8 A @ Tc = 95 °C - Sustains continuous conduction in compact heatsink-limited PFC boost diodes. |
| IFSM | 75 A (10 ms, Tc = 25 °C) - Withstands inrush and overload surges without degradation. |
| VF | 1.56 V typ. @ 25 °C, 8 A - Reduces conduction loss vs. Si FRD (ΔP ≈ 0.8–1.2 W per device at full load). |
| Qcj | 23.5 nC @ VR = 400 V - Directly determines turn-off capacitive energy loss in hard-switched converters. |
| Rth(j-c) | 2.45 °C/W typ. - Enables thermal design with <100 °C junction rise at 8 A continuous in standard TO-220 heatsinks. |
| Cj | 414 pF @ 0 V - Low capacitance minimizes dv/dt-induced displacement current and EMI generation. |
Pinout & Package
The STPSC8H065DI uses an insulated TO-220AC package with electrically isolated metal tab (2500 VRMS isolation). The case serves as the cathode terminal, and the leaded pin is the anode. Mounting requires torque control (0.55 N·m recommended) to ensure thermal contact without cracking the insulating layer.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (lead) | Current entry point during forward conduction | Connected to input/switch node in boost PFC; must handle full AC line rectified current ripple. |
| Cathode (isolated tab) | Current exit point; electrically isolated from heatsink | Enables direct mounting to grounded heatsink without external insulator; eliminates thermal pad resistance penalty. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No reverse recovery charge (Qrr = 0) | Eliminates switching loss and ringing in hard-switched topologies like boost PFC and LLC primary-side rectification. |
| Temperature-independent switching behavior | Ensures consistent timing and loss profile across -40 to +175 °C ambient, simplifying thermal derating. |
| High forward surge capability (75 A, 10 ms) | Supports cold-start inrush and transient overload without bond-wire fusing or parameter shift. |
| Insulated TO-220AC package (2500 VRMS) | Reduces PCB isolation spacing requirements and eliminates need for mica washers or silicone pads. |
| ECOPACK®2 compliance | Meets RoHS, halogen-free, and material declaration standards for industrial and automotive supply chains. |
Applications
| Server Power Supply | PFC Front-End |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: High-density 3 kW server PSU with active clamp forward or LLC topology. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Output rectifier in secondary-side synchronous or quasi-resonant stage.

Use Value: Low Cj (414 pF) and Qcj (23.5 nC) minimize capacitive turn-off loss and EMI, enabling clean 150 kHz switching. |
| Industrial Motor Drive | Renewable Energy Inverter |
|

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) = 1.7 °C/W; no insulation. | Requires external insulator for heatsink mounting; better thermal performance but higher assembly cost. | Select when thermal budget is tighter and isolation can be implemented externally. |
| SS10P6L (ON Semiconductor) | Si-based 10 A / 600 V FRD; Qrr = 45 nC; VF = 2.2 V @ 8 A; Rth(j-c) = 2.0 °C/W. | Higher switching loss and EMI; limited to ≤100 kHz operation due to recovery tail. | Select only for cost-sensitive, low-frequency (<50 kHz), non-isolated designs where efficiency gain is secondary. |
Compared with C3D08065E, STPSC8H065DI trades 0.65 °C/W higher thermal resistance for built-in 2500 VRMS isolation - reducing BOM count and assembly steps. Against SS10P6L, it delivers 100% elimination of Qrr-related loss and 30% lower conduction loss at 150 °C, justifying SiC premium in high-frequency PFC.

FAQ
Is STPSC8H065DI pin-compatible with standard TO-220AC diodes?
Yes - it uses the same 3-pin TO-220AC outline with anode on pin 1 and cathode on the isolated tab. Mechanical footprint and mounting hole position match JEDEC TO-220AC standards, allowing drop-in replacement in existing layouts where insulation is required.
What is the maximum recommended case temperature for continuous operation?
The datasheet specifies IF(AV) = 8 A at Tc = 95 °C. Exceeding this temperature requires linear derating per Figure 5; sustained operation above 105 °C risks exceeding the 175 °C max junction limit under typical thermal interface conditions.
Does the insulated package affect thermal performance compared to non-insulated TO-220AC?
Yes - Rth(j-c) is 2.45 °C/W (typ.) vs. 1.3 °C/W for non-insulated TO-220AC variants. The insulation layer adds ~1.15 °C/W thermal resistance, but eliminates thermal pad resistance and improves long-term reliability under vibration or thermal cycling.
Can STPSC8H065DI be used in parallel configurations?
Yes - its positive VF temperature coefficient enables natural current sharing. Parallel operation requires matched layout impedance, identical heatsinking, and individual gate drive routing if used in synchronous rectification schemes with external MOSFETs.
