Product details
Overview
STPST5H100AF from STMicroelectronics is a 5 A, 100 V Schottky trench rectifier in SOD128Flat package, optimized for high-frequency SMPS with low conduction and switching losses. It delivers typ. 0.55 V forward voltage at 5 A/125 °C, supports 175 °C max junction temperature, and features avalanche ruggedness (IAS = 9 A) for reliable freewheeling in flyback and auxiliary power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the STPST5H100AF datasheet, STPST5H100AF pinout, STPST5H100AF application, or STPST5H100AF equivalent, this device is selected for compact DC/DC converters, LED drivers, and telecom auxiliary supplies where thermal efficiency, space-constrained layout, and robust reverse recovery performance are critical.
Technical Context
This Schottky rectifier uses ST's proprietary trench silicon technology to achieve superior VF/IR trade-off versus planar Schottkys - enabling lower conduction loss without sacrificing leakage. Its flat SOD128Flat package provides low Rth(j-l) of 10 °C/W and supports high-density PCB layouts.
The device is rated for repetitive 100 V reverse voltage and 5 A average forward current at TL = 120 °C, with pulse surge capability up to 75 A (10 ms). Avalanche testing confirms unclamped inductive switching robustness under real-world transient conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 100 V - Withstands peak reverse voltage in flyback snubber and OR-ing circuits without breakdown. |
| IF(AV) | 5 A at TL = 120 °C - Sustains continuous output current in compact 12–24 V auxiliary supplies. |
| VF (typ.) | 0.55 V at 5 A / 125 °C - Reduces conduction loss to ~2.75 W, lowering heatsink requirements. |
| Tj (max) | +175 °C - Enables operation in sealed enclosures or high-ambient environments like smart meters. |
| Rth(j-l) | 10 °C/W - Enables direct thermal coupling to PCB copper, eliminating need for external heatsinks in <10 W designs. |
| IAS | 9 A - Survives unclamped inductive switching events (EAS = ½ × L × IAS²) in freewheeling paths. |
| IR (max) | 3.2 mA at 70 V / 125 °C - Limits standby power loss in always-on auxiliary rails. |
Pinout & Package
SOD128Flat is a surface-mount, dual-terminal, flat leaded package with exposed cathode pad for enhanced thermal conduction. Dimensions: 4.7 mm × 2.4 mm × 1.0 mm (L × W × H), lead pitch 3.8 mm, ECOPACK2-compliant.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (A) | Input current entry point | Connected to switching node (e.g., transformer secondary or MOSFET drain) in flyback/freewheeling path. |
| Cathode (K) | Output current exit point | Connected to output capacitor and load; large copper pour required for thermal dissipation and low ESR return path. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low VF/IR trade-off | 0.55 V @ 5 A/125 °C + 3.2 mA IR @ 70 V/125 °C - Minimizes combined conduction and leakage loss in 24 V auxiliary rails. |
| Avalanche ruggedness | IAS = 9 A (L = 300 µH, VDD = 15 V) - Eliminates need for external clamping in low-power freewheeling applications. |
| High Tj rating | 175 °C max junction temperature - Supports operation in thermally constrained spaces (e.g., enclosed smart meter modules). |
| Flat, space-saving package | SOD128Flat footprint: 4.7 mm × 2.4 mm - Fits 50% smaller board area than SMB Flat while maintaining 5 A rating. |
| ECOPACK2 compliance | Lead-free, halogen-free, RoHS-compliant - Meets EU environmental directives without derating or process change. |
Applications
| DC/DC Converter | LED Lighting Driver |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: 12 V/5 A isolated flyback converter powering industrial sensors. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Freewheeling rectifier on secondary side, conducting during MOSFET off-time. Use Value: 0.55 V VF reduces conduction loss by 35% vs. standard Schottky, improving efficiency from 82% to 85.2% at full load. |
Use Scenario: Constant-current LED driver for streetlight modules with 36 V output. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Output rectifier in quasi-resonant topology, handling 5 A pulsed current. Use Value: Low recovery charge minimizes ringing and EMI, easing EMC filter design and reducing BOM cost. |
| Auxiliary Power Supply | Telecom System Board |

Use Scenario: OR-ing diode in dual-input telecom line card with hot-swap capability. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Reverse polarity protection and power-path selection diode. Use Value: Low VF enables <100 mV dropout at 3 A, minimizing voltage drop and heat generation in redundant 12 V rails. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Schottky rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vishay VS-50SQ030 | 30 V VRRM, 5 A IF(AV), VF = 0.42 V @ 5 A/25 °C - Lower voltage rating, higher VF at elevated Tj. | Only suitable for ≤30 V outputs; cannot replace in 100 V flyback or telecom auxiliary rails. | Select only when system VRRM ≤30 V and lowest room-temp VF is prioritized over thermal stability. |
| ON Semiconductor SB5100 | 100 V VRRM, 5 A IF(AV), VF = 0.85 V @ 5 A/25 °C, no avalanche rating - Higher conduction loss, no IAS spec. | Lacks avalanche ruggedness; requires external TVS/clamp in inductive freewheeling paths. | Acceptable only in non-inductive, low-dV/dt applications where surge immunity is not required. |
Compared with VS-50SQ030 and SB5100, STPST5H100AF uniquely combines 100 V rating, 0.55 V VF at 125 °C, and verified 9 A avalanche capability - making it the only option among the three qualified for unclamped flyback freewheeling in telecom and industrial SMPS.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable PCB copper area for optimal thermal performance in SOD128Flat?
For STPST5H100AF in SOD128Flat, thermal resistance junction-to-ambient drops to ~3.2 °C/W with ≥100 cm² total copper (50 cm² per lead), per Figure 11. Minimum recommended is 30 cm² per lead to maintain Tj < 150 °C at 5 A/120 °C ambient. Use internal layers and thermal vias for best results.
Can STPST5H100AF replace standard silicon diodes in existing 100 V flyback designs?
Yes - STPST5H100AF replaces 100 V fast-recovery diodes (e.g., UF4007) with immediate efficiency gain: typical VF reduction from 0.95 V to 0.55 V cuts conduction loss by ~42%. No circuit changes needed, but ensure layout accommodates SOD128Flat footprint and thermal copper.
Is STPST5H100AF qualified for automotive applications?
No - STPST5H100AF is not AEC-Q101 qualified. It is specified for industrial, telecom, and consumer power supplies. For automotive-grade equivalents, consider ST's AEC-Q101-certified STTH5L06 or STTH8R06 series, which share similar VF/IR performance but include extended temperature and qualification testing.
How does the SOD128Flat package compare thermally to SMB Flat and PSMC variants?
SOD128Flat offers Rth(j-l) = 10 °C/W, SMB Flat = 7.7 °C/W, and PSMC = 1.8 °C/W. While PSMC has superior thermal performance, SOD128Flat provides best-in-class power density: 5 A in 11.3 mm² footprint vs. 19.8 mm² (SMB) and 28.5 mm² (PSMC), ideal for space-constrained auxiliary rails.
