Product details
Overview
STTH302RL from STMicroelectronics is a 200 V, 3 A ultrafast recovery rectifier diode in DO-201AD package, featuring 35 ns reverse recovery time (trr), 0.75 V max forward voltage at 125°C, and 175°C maximum junction temperature. It serves as a freewheeling or snubber diode in high-frequency switch-mode power supplies and transistor base-drive circuits.
For engineers reviewing the STTH302RL datasheet, STTH302RL pinout, STTH302RL application, or STTH302RL equivalent, key selection criteria include trr ≤ 35 ns at IF = 1 A, VF ≤ 0.75 V at TJ = 125°C, IR ≤ 75 µA at TJ = 125°C, thermal resistance Rth(j-a) = 25 °C/W on infinite heatsink, and DO-201AD mechanical compatibility with axial leaded PCB layouts.
Technical Context
This planar silicon diode uses ST's 200 V ultrafast technology optimized for minimal conduction and switching losses. Its low Qrr and fast tfr (70 ns) enable efficient operation in hard-switched topologies above 100 kHz.
The device exhibits stable dynamic performance across temperature: trr increases only ~1.3× from 25°C to 125°C under identical test conditions (IF = 3 A, dIF/dt = 200 A/µs, VR = 100 V), and VF drops from 0.95 V to 0.66 V (typ.) over the same range.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 200 V - Withstands repetitive reverse voltage up to 200 V without breakdown, suitable for 115/230 VAC input rectification with margin. |
| IF(AV) | 3 A at TI = 107°C, δ = 0.5 - Continuous average forward current rating under standard duty-cycle thermal conditions. |
| trr | 35 ns max at IF = 1 A, dIF/dt = −50 A/µs, VR = 30 V, TJ = 25°C - Enables high-frequency switching with low commutation loss in SMPS. |
| VF | 0.75 V max at IF = 3 A, TJ = 125°C - Low conduction loss reduces heat generation in compact power stages. |
| Tj(max) | 175°C - Allows operation in thermally constrained environments such as enclosed industrial PSUs or motor drives. |
| Rth(j-a) | 25 °C/W on infinite heatsink with 10 mm leads - Defines thermal path limitation for natural-convection cooling design. |
| IR | 75 µA max at VR = VRRM, TJ = 125°C - Low leakage preserves efficiency in standby and light-load modes. |
Pinout & Package
DO-201AD axial-leaded package with cathode indicated by white band. Body diameter ∅C = 5.30 mm, lead diameter ∅D = 1.30 mm, overall length B = 25.40 mm, and body length A = 9.50 mm. Minimum right-angle bend zone length is 15 mm.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (lead without band) | Forward current entry point | Connected to switch node (e.g., MOSFET drain) in freewheeling configuration. |
| Cathode (lead with white band) | Forward current exit / reverse blocking terminal | Connected to output rail or ground return; withstands full VRRM during off-state. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultrafast recovery | trr ≤ 35 ns ensures minimal turn-off loss in 100–500 kHz SMPS designs. |
| High-temperature capability | Tj(max) = 175°C supports operation in sealed enclosures or near heat-generating components. |
| Low forward voltage | VF ≤ 0.75 V at 3 A and 125°C directly reduces I²R conduction loss and thermal stress. |
| Low leakage current | IR ≤ 75 µA at 125°C maintains efficiency in standby and low-power modes. |
| Robust surge rating | IFSM = 130 A (10 ms, sinusoidal) handles inrush and transient overload without failure. |
Applications
| Switch-Mode Power Supply Output Rectification | Transistor Base-Drive Clamping |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Secondary-side rectification in 65–300 W AC/DC adapters and open-frame PSUs operating at 100–300 kHz. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Freewheeling diode providing low-loss current path during MOSFET off-time; replaces slower FR-type diodes to reduce EMI and improve efficiency. Use Value: 35 ns trr cuts reverse recovery charge (Qrr) by >60% vs. standard fast recovery diodes, lowering switching loss and snubber stress. | Use Scenario: Clamp protection for bipolar transistor or IGBT gate/base drive circuits subject to inductive kickback. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Snubber diode absorbing negative voltage spikes during turn-off; leverages fast tfr (70 ns) and low VFP (1.6 V) to limit overshoot. Use Value: 1.6 V forward recovery voltage limits peak clamping voltage, protecting driver ICs without requiring external Zener clamps. |
| DC-DC Converter Freewheeling | Inductive Load Flyback Suppression |
Use Scenario: Synchronous or non-synchronous buck converter outputs in telecom and industrial DC distribution systems (12–48 V bus). IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Freewheeling path during high-side switch off-phase; operates with δ = 0.5 duty cycle and ambient up to 85°C. Use Value: Rth(j-a) = 25 °C/W enables 3 A continuous conduction without forced air, reducing heatsink area by ~40% vs. TO-220 alternatives. | Use Scenario: Solenoid, relay, and stepper motor coil suppression in programmable logic controllers and motion control modules. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Passive flyback diode routing inductive energy back to supply rail; must handle 130 A surge peaks during sudden de-energization. Use Value: 130 A non-repetitive surge rating prevents single-event failure during frequent actuation cycles in factory automation. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar ultrafast rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH3L02RL | Same DO-201AD package; lower IF(AV) = 2 A, trr = 30 ns typ., VF = 0.72 V max at 125°C. | Better trr but reduced current handling; suited for <2 A, higher-frequency (>500 kHz) designs. | Select when priority is minimizing Qrr over current capacity. |
| ES3D-E3/57T | DO-204AL (DO-41) package; IF(AV) = 3 A, VRRM = 200 V, trr = 35 ns, VF = 0.85 V max at 125°C. | Higher VF increases conduction loss; smaller DO-41 body limits heatsinking; not drop-in due to different lead spacing. | Use only if DO-201AD footprint is unavailable and thermal margin ≥15°C exists. |
Compared with STTH3L02RL, STTH302RL trades 5 ns of trr for +1 A current rating and better thermal robustness; versus ES3D-E3/57T, it delivers 0.1 V lower VF and superior thermal resistance-critical for sustained 3 A operation in confined spaces.

FAQ
What is the cathode identification method for STTH302RL?
The cathode is marked by a white band on the diode body, aligned with one axial lead. This lead must be connected toward the more positive potential in forward-biased operation. The DO-201AD package follows JEDEC standard orientation, with band position verified in ST's mechanical drawing (Doc ID 2237, Rev 3).
Can STTH302RL replace a standard FR107 in a 100 kHz flyback converter?
Yes-STTH302RL offers trr = 35 ns versus FR107's 500 ns, reducing reverse recovery loss by >90%. Its VF is comparable (0.75 V vs. 0.95 V), and DO-201AD footprint matches FR107's DO-41 only with adapter layout; direct replacement requires pad rework due to longer body and larger diameter.
What is the maximum allowable lead length for thermal derating?
Per Figure 3 in the datasheet, Rth(j-a) rises from 25 °C/W (10 mm leads) to ~75 °C/W at 2 mm leads. For reliable 3 A operation, lead length should be ≥10 mm on FR4 board; shorter leads require active cooling or current derating per Fig. 2 (e.g., 2.2 A at 70°C ambient with 5 mm leads).
Does STTH302RL meet UL94 V-0 flammability requirements?
Yes-the epoxy encapsulant meets UL94 V-0, confirmed in the "Package Mechanical Data" section (page 5) and ordering information table. This qualifies the device for use in end equipment requiring flame-retardant component housings, including Class II power supplies and industrial control panels.
