Product details
Overview
STTH1R04QRL from STMicroelectronics is a 400 V, 1 A ultrafast recovery rectifier diode in DO-15 package, featuring 14 ns typical reverse recovery time, 0.9 V typical forward voltage at 150 °C, and 175 °C maximum junction temperature. It is engineered for low-voltage, high-frequency inverters, free-wheeling, and polarity protection circuits using Pt-doped planar technology.
For engineers reviewing the STTH1R04QRL datasheet, STTH1R04QRL pinout, STTH1R04QRL application, or STTH1R04QRL equivalent, key selection criteria include ultrafast trr (14 ns @ 1 A, −100 A/µs), thermal robustness (Tj = 175 °C), low VF stability across temperature, and DO-15 mechanical compatibility with legacy through-hole power designs.
Technical Context
This diode employs platinum-doped planar junction technology to achieve precise carrier lifetime control, enabling ultrafast recovery without softness degradation. Its dynamic behavior is characterized by low QRR (e.g., ~12 nC at dIF/dt = 100 A/µs, Tj = 125 °C) and minimal IRM (2.5–3.5 A under harsh switching conditions).
Thermal performance is optimized for lead-mounted operation: Rth(j-l) = 50 °C/W (DO-15, 10 mm leads on infinite heatsink), supporting reliable conduction loss management in compact power stages where forced airflow is limited.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 400 V - supports DC bus voltages up to 280 V RMS in bridge rectifiers with 1.4× safety margin |
| IF(AV) | 1 A - rated for continuous conduction in low-power SMPS output stages and base-drive clamping |
| trr(typ.) | 14 ns - enables >500 kHz switching in synchronous rectifier-assisted topologies with minimal turn-off loss |
| VF(typ.) | 0.9 V @ Tj = 150 °C, IF = 1 A - reduces conduction loss by ~25% vs. standard FRD at elevated temperature |
| Tj(max) | 175 °C - allows operation in sealed enclosures or high-ambient industrial environments without derating |
| IFSM | 30 A @ 10 ms - withstands inrush currents in telecom DC/DC input filtering and hold-up capacitor charging |
| Rth(j-l) | 50 °C/W - defines thermal path efficiency from junction to PCB lead; requires ≥10 mm lead length for datasheet-rated dissipation |
Pinout & Package
STTH1R04QRL is housed in a DO-15 axial-leaded package per JEDEC DO-204AL. Cathode identified by band marking; anode and cathode terminals are electrically isolated except through the PN junction.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (unbanded end) | Forward current entry point | Connected to lower-potential node (e.g., switch node in flyback snubber or cathode of driving transistor) |
| Cathode (banded end) | Forward current exit / reverse blocking terminal | Connected to higher-potential rail (e.g., +VOUT in freewheeling path or positive DC bus) |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultrafast recovery | trr = 14 ns typ. @ −100 A/µs enables high-frequency hard-switched converters without snubber losses |
| Low forward voltage drift | VF increases only 0.25 V from 25 °C to 150 °C @ 1 A - maintains stable conduction loss across thermal range |
| High-temperature capability | Rated for continuous operation at Tj = 175 °C - eliminates need for oversized heatsinking in space-constrained modules |
| ECOPACK® compliance | Lead-free, RoHS-compliant construction with UL94 V0 epoxy - meets industrial and telecom environmental mandates |
Applications
| Telecom AC-DC Adapters | Industrial Motor Drive Snubbers |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Secondary-side rectification in 48 V telecom offline adapters operating at 200–300 kHz. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Ultrafast freewheeling diode clamping MOSFET drain during dead-time, preventing voltage overshoot. Use Value: 14 ns trr minimizes reverse recovery charge injection, reducing EMI and improving efficiency by 0.8% over standard FRDs. | Use Scenario: Clamp diode in IGBT-based 3-phase inverter half-bridge snubber networks. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Absorbs inductive kickback energy during IGBT turn-off, limiting dv/dt stress. Use Value: 175 °C Tj(max) and 30 A IFSM ensure reliability under repeated short-circuit fault conditions in motor stall events. |
| Automotive Body Control Modules | LED Driver Polarity Protection |
Use Scenario: Reverse polarity protection in 12 V/24 V automotive BCM power inputs exposed to jump-start transients. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Series-connected anode-to-input diode blocking reverse battery connection. Use Value: 400 V VRRM withstands load-dump spikes (ISO 7637-2 Pulse 5a: up to 120 V transient), eliminating fuse dependency. | Use Scenario: Input polarity guard in constant-current LED drivers for street lighting. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-VF series diode preventing damage from accidental reverse wiring during field installation. Use Value: 0.9 V VF at 150 °C ensures <100 mW power loss at 1 A, avoiding thermal runaway in enclosed luminaires. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar ultrafast recovery diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ON Semiconductor MUR120RLG | VRRM = 200 V, trr = 35 ns, VF = 0.93 V @ 25 °C - lower voltage rating and slower recovery | Suitable only for ≤140 V DC bus applications; not recommended for 400 V telecom rectification | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs voltage margin and switching speed requirements |
| Vishay VS-1EWH04-M3/54 | VRRM = 400 V, trr = 25 ns, VF = 0.97 V @ 150 °C - 11 ns slower recovery, slightly higher VF | Acceptable for 200–300 kHz inverters but increases turn-off loss in >400 kHz designs | Prefer for legacy designs already qualified with TO-220AB footprint; not drop-in for DO-15 board layout |
Compared with MUR120RLG and VS-1EWH04-M3/54, STTH1R04QRL delivers superior high-frequency performance (14 ns trr) and thermal stability (0.9 V VF at 150 °C), making it optimal for next-generation compact, high-efficiency power supplies where voltage margin and switching loss are critical.

FAQ
What is the cathode identification method for STTH1R04QRL?
The cathode is marked by a single color band near one lead end of the DO-15 package. This band aligns with the cathode symbol in the device outline drawing (Figure 20, DS5848 Rev 4). The unbanded lead is the anode. No polarity reversal is permitted during soldering or circuit operation.
Can STTH1R04QRL replace standard FR107 diodes in existing designs?
Yes, STTH1R04QRL is a direct DO-15 drop-in replacement for FR107 in terms of footprint and pinout, but offers significantly faster recovery (14 ns vs. 500 ns) and lower VF (0.9 V vs. 1.3 V at 150 °C). Designers must verify reduced reverse recovery charge does not induce unintended ringing in existing snubber networks.
What is the maximum allowable lead length for thermal performance compliance?
For full-rated 1 A average current operation, STMicroelectronics specifies 10 mm lead length on an infinite heatsink to achieve the published Rth(j-l) = 50 °C/W. Shorter leads increase thermal resistance; lengths below 6 mm require derating to ≤0.7 A to maintain Tj ≤ 175 °C under worst-case ambient conditions.
Does STTH1R04QRL support reflow soldering?
No - STTH1R04QRL is a DO-15 axial-leaded device intended for wave or hand soldering only. Its epoxy body and lead finish are not qualified for lead-free reflow profiles (peak temp ≥ 260 °C). Reflow exposure risks internal delamination, bond wire fracture, and irreversible VRRM degradation.
