Product details
Overview
STPST8H100SFY from STMicroelectronics is an AEC-Q101-qualified 8 A, 100 V automotive Schottky trench rectifier in PSMC (TO-277A) package, featuring typ. 0.560 V forward voltage at 125 °C and 8 A, 1.4 °C/W junction-to-case thermal resistance, and 100% production avalanche testing - deployed in ECU power supplies and LED lighting DC/DC converters.
For engineers reviewing the STPST8H100SFY datasheet, STPST8H100SFY pinout, STPST8H100SFY application, or STPST8H100SFY equivalent, key selection criteria include VF/IR trade-off at high Tj, avalanche ruggedness under unclamped inductive switching, thermal performance on FR4 with limited copper area, and flat-package mounting compatibility in space-constrained automotive modules.
Technical Context
This device implements ST's proprietary trench Schottky architecture to minimize conduction loss while maintaining low reverse leakage - achieving 0.560 V VF at 125 °C/8 A and only 4.6 mA IR at 125 °C/70 V. Its 1.4 °C/W Rth(j-c) enables high-power operation without external heatsink when mounted on ≥4 cm² copper.
The PSMC (TO-277A) package integrates dual-anode terminals shorted internally, supports conduction-cooled mounting, and meets ECOPACK2 environmental compliance. It is rated for continuous operation from –40 °C to +175 °C junction temperature with 12 A single-pulse avalanche current capability (L = 300 µH, VDD = 15 V).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 100 V - blocks up to 100 V reverse voltage in flyback snubber or OR-ing paths without breakdown |
| IF(AV) | 8 A at Tc = 155 °C - delivers sustained DC output current in compact DC/DC converters |
| VF (typ.) | 0.560 V at Tj = 125 °C, IF = 8 A - reduces conduction loss to ~4.5 W vs. 6–8 W for legacy Schottkys |
| Rth(j-c) | 1.4 °C/W - allows 10.7 W power dissipation before reaching 175 °C junction limit at 25 °C case |
| IAS | 12 A - withstands unclamped inductive energy events (EAS = 0.5 × 300 µH × 12² A² ≈ 21.6 mJ) |
| Tj (max) | +175 °C - supports placement near hot engine-control components without derating |
| IR (max) | 4.6 mA at 125 °C/70 V - limits reverse leakage in high-side freewheeling configurations |
Pinout & Package
PSMC (TO-277A) is a flat, surface-mount, dual-anode single-cathode package with exposed thermal pad. Mounting requires soldering the cathode tab to a minimum 4 cm² copper area on FR4 for thermal compliance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode 1 / Anode 2 | Parallel input terminals | Internally shorted anodes reduce series resistance and improve current sharing uniformity |
| Cathode (Tab) | Output terminal & thermal path | Exposed metal tab serves as both current return and primary heat conduction interface to PCB |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Validated for automotive under-hood use including temperature cycling, humidity, and mechanical shock |
| 100% avalanche tested | Every unit passes production-level unclamped inductive switching test per Figure 1–2 |
| Low VF/IR trade-off | 0.560 V @ 125 °C/8 A and only 4.6 mA IR @ 125 °C/70 V - optimized for high-efficiency SMPS |
| Flat PSMC package | Height ≤1.2 mm - enables integration into ultra-low-profile automotive modules (e.g., headlamp drivers) |
| ECOPACK2 compliance | Halogen-free, RoHS-compliant materials with lead-free termination finish |
Applications
| Automotive LED Headlamp Power Supply | Flyback DC/DC Converter in ECU |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: High-brightness LED array powered by 12 V battery via isolated flyback converter operating at 250 kHz. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Output rectifier handling 8 A average forward current with minimal conduction loss and thermal rise. Use Value: 0.560 V VF at 125 °C cuts diode loss by ~35% vs. standard Schottky, enabling smaller heatsink and higher lumen density. | Use Scenario: 5 V/3 A auxiliary supply for microcontroller, CAN transceiver, and sensors inside engine control unit. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Secondary-side synchronous rectifier replacement - freewheeling path during MOSFET off-time. Use Value: 1.4 °C/W Rth(j-c) allows direct PCB copper cooling, eliminating discrete heatsink and reducing BOM count. |
| On-board Battery-to-48 V DC/DC | Reverse Polarity Protection in ADAS Camera Module |
Use Scenario: Bidirectional buck-boost stage converting 12 V battery to 48 V rail for active suspension actuators. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Freewheeling diode in high-frequency (300–500 kHz), high-current (8 A avg) power stage. Use Value: Low recovery charge minimizes switching loss during hard-commutation transitions, improving efficiency above 92%. | Use Scenario: Input protection for 12 V camera module powered from vehicle harness with risk of reversed connector insertion. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: OR-ing diode placed between input connector and internal LDO/regulator. Use Value: 100% avalanche-tested ruggedness ensures survival during 12 V reverse-battery transients up to 200 A surge. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Schottky rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ON Semiconductor NSS10100CTG | 10 A/100 V, VF = 0.65 V @ 125 °C/10 A, Rth(j-c) = 1.8 °C/W, no avalanche rating | Lacks AEC-Q101 and production avalanche test; suitable for industrial but not safety-critical automotive | Select only if Tj stays below 150 °C and transient immunity is not required |
| Vishay VS-8EWH10FN-M3 | 8 A/100 V, VF = 0.69 V @ 25 °C/8 A, Tj max = +150 °C, TO-220AC package (height > 9 mm) | Higher VF increases conduction loss; larger TO-220AC incompatible with low-profile automotive layouts | Acceptable only where board height > 10 mm and thermal margin permits higher VF |
Compared with NSS10100CTG and VS-8EWH10FN-M3, STPST8H100SFY uniquely combines AEC-Q101 qualification, 175 °C operation, 100% avalanche screening, and sub-1.2 mm profile - making it the only choice for thermally dense, safety-critical automotive power stages.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable case temperature for continuous 8 A operation?
The datasheet specifies IF(AV) = 8 A at Tc = 155 °C with δ = 0.5 square wave. At this case temperature and duty cycle, junction temperature remains within the –40 °C to +175 °C limit assuming Rth(j-c) = 1.4 °C/W and no additional ambient thermal resistance. Derating is required above 155 °C case temperature.
Is STPST8H100SFY pin-compatible with other PSMC-packaged rectifiers?
Yes - STPST8H100SFY uses the standardized PSMC (TO-277A) footprint defined in DS14188 Figure 10, matching mechanical dimensions and terminal layout of all ST PSMC Schottky rectifiers (e.g., STPST5H100-Y, STPST12H100-Y), enabling drop-in replacement within same current/voltage class.
Does this device require a heatsink for 8 A operation?
No external heatsink is required if mounted on ≥4 cm² of 70 µm-thick copper on FR4 PCB, per Figure 8. With that copper area, Rth(j-a) drops to ~6.5 °C/W, allowing 8 A operation at 25 °C ambient without exceeding 175 °C junction temperature - verified by thermal simulation and application note AN5088.
How does the 100% avalanche test differ from standard UIS testing?
Each STPST8H100SFY undergoes production-level unclamped inductive switching (UIS) per Figure 1–2: 12 A pulse into 300 µH inductance with VDD = 15 V and VCL_DUT clamped to 100 V. This validates single-pulse ruggedness to 21.6 mJ, exceeding AEC-Q101 UIS requirements and ensuring robustness against real-world inductive turn-off transients.
