Product details
Overview
STTH1003SB-TR from STMicroelectronics is an ultrafast recovery power rectifier in DPAK package, rated for 300 V repetitive peak reverse voltage, 10 A average forward current, and 13 ns typical reverse recovery time. It is engineered for clamping in energy recovery blocks of plasma display panel (PDP) systems, delivering low conduction loss (VF = 0.9 V at 10 A, 125 °C) and high surge capability (100 A non-repetitive).
For engineers reviewing the STTH1003SB-TR datasheet, STTH1003SB-TR pinout, STTH1003SB-TR application, or STTH1003SB-TR equivalent, key selection criteria include trr < 17 ns at 125 °C, Rth(j-c) = 4 °C/W, softness factor ≥ 0.3, and compatibility with high-dI/dt switching (>200 A/µs) in resonant clamp topologies.
Technical Context
This device operates as a unidirectional high-speed switching diode optimized for zero-voltage switching (ZVS) energy recovery circuits. Its ultrafast trr (13–35 ns, depending on dI/dt and Tj) and low softness factor (0.3) minimize voltage overshoot and EMI during turn-off in PDP sustain drivers.
The DPAK thermally robust package enables junction temperatures up to 175 °C while maintaining low thermal resistance (Rth(j-c) = 4 °C/W). Forward voltage is tightly specified (0.90–1.10 V at 10 A, 125 °C), ensuring predictable conduction loss across industrial temperature range.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 300 V - Withstands repetitive reverse voltage up to 300 V without breakdown in PDP clamp circuits. |
| IF(AV) | 10 A - Sustains average forward current of 10 A at Tc = 150 °C, enabling compact heatsink design. |
| trr (typ) | 13 ns - Ultrafast recovery minimizes switching loss and ringing in 100–200 kHz PDP energy recovery stages. |
| VF (typ) | 0.9 V @ 10 A, 125 °C - Low forward drop reduces conduction loss to ~9 W per device under full load. |
| Rth(j-c) | 4 °C/W - Enables direct mounting to PCB copper pour or heatsink for thermal management in space-constrained PDP modules. |
| Sfactor | 0.3 - Soft recovery behavior suppresses voltage spikes and EMI during high-dI/dt turn-off transitions. |
| IFS M | 100 A - Handles short-duration surge currents common during PDP panel startup and fault conditions. |
Pinout & Package
DPAK (TO-252) surface-mount package with three terminals: anode, cathode, and exposed thermal pad (connected to cathode internally). The thermal pad must be soldered to a large copper area for optimal heat dissipation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (Pin 1) | Forward current entry | Connected to switching node in clamp circuit; carries pulsed 10 A average current. |
| Cathode (Pin 2) | Forward current exit / reverse blocking terminal | Connected to DC bus or energy storage capacitor; sustains 300 V reverse bias. |
| Thermal Pad (Pin 3) | Thermal interface / cathode extension | Internally tied to cathode; requires minimum 100 mm² copper pour for Rth(j-c) = 4 °C/W performance. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar ultrafast rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH1003D-TR | D²PAK package (Rth(j-c) = 2.5 °C/W); same electrical specs; larger footprint. | Better thermal performance but requires more PCB area; not suitable for height-constrained PDP modules. | Select when thermal margin is critical and board space permits larger package. |
| IXYS MUR1030CT | TO-220AB dual common-cathode configuration; trr = 35 ns (max); VF = 1.15 V @ 10 A. | Higher trr and VF increase switching/conduction losses; requires mechanical mounting and isolation. | Choose only if dual-diode topology is required and efficiency targets permit 3–5% lower efficiency. |
Compared with STTH1003D-TR and MUR1030CT, the STTH1003SB-TR uniquely balances ultrafast recovery (13 ns), low VF (0.9 V), and compact DPAK thermal performance (4 °C/W) for space- and efficiency-sensitive PDP and resonant converter designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum recommended PCB copper area for the DPAK thermal pad?
The DPAK thermal pad requires a minimum 100 mm² exposed copper pour connected to internal ground or cathode plane. For optimal Rth(j-c) = 4 °C/W, use ≥6 thermal vias (0.3 mm diameter, filled or plated) spaced evenly under the pad and connected to inner-layer copper planes.
Does STTH1003SB-TR support bidirectional current flow?
No. STTH1003SB-TR is a unidirectional power rectifier. It conducts only from anode to cathode under forward bias and blocks current in reverse direction up to 300 V. Bidirectional operation would require external circuitry such as back-to-back MOSFETs or a dedicated H-bridge controller.
Can this diode replace a standard FR107 in a flyback converter?
Only with circuit re-evaluation. STTH1003SB-TR has lower VF and faster trr than FR107, but its higher dI/dt sensitivity (200 A/µs) may cause excessive ringing if snubbers are not adjusted. Also, its 300 V VRRM matches FR107, but thermal design must account for DPAK's different mounting requirements.
Is ECOPACK®2 compliance verified per shipment or per lot?
ECOPACK®2 compliance is certified per product family and manufacturing site-not per individual lot or shipment. ST maintains full material declarations and halogen-free process validation at the DPAK assembly facility, with documentation available via ST's Quality Portal upon NDA registration.
