Product details

Overview

STTH60W02CW from STMicroelectronics is a 200 V, 60 A ultrafast recovery rectifier diode in TO-247AC package, featuring 35 ns reverse recovery time, 1.85 V forward voltage at 60 A, and 150 °C maximum junction temperature - used in high-frequency switching power supplies, PFC stages, and industrial DC-DC converters.

For engineers reviewing the STTH60W02CW datasheet, STTH60W02CW pinout, STTH60W02CW application, or STTH60W02CW equivalent, key selection criteria include reverse recovery performance, thermal resistance (R_thJC = 0.55 K/W), soft recovery behavior, and avalanche ruggedness rating (E_AS = 190 mJ).

Technical Context

This ultrafast diode employs optimized lifetime control and soft-recovery design to minimize switching losses and EMI in hard-switched topologies. Its low Q_rr (110 nC typical at I_F = 60 A, dI/dt = 200 A/µs) and controlled reverse recovery slope (di_rr/dt) support efficient operation in 100–500 kHz SMPS designs.

The device integrates a monolithic silicon die with planar passivation and gold-bonded internal connections for stable high-current conduction and robust surge capability (I_FSM = 420 A peak, 10 ms sine half-wave). It is not rated for automotive AEC-Q101 qualification but meets industrial reliability standards per ST's qualified process flow.

Key Specifications

Parameter	Value and Actual Design Meaning
V_RRM	200 V - Maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage; defines safe blocking capability in boost/PFC circuits.
I_F(AV)	60 A - Average forward current at T_C = 110 °C; determines heatsink sizing for continuous conduction mode.
t_rr	35 ns - Reverse recovery time at I_F = 60 A, dI/dt = 200 A/µs; critical for minimizing turn-off loss and snubber stress.
V_F	1.85 V @ I_F = 60 A - Forward voltage drop; directly impacts conduction loss and thermal design in high-current paths.
R_thJC	0.55 K/W - Junction-to-case thermal resistance; enables accurate junction temperature estimation under real operating conditions.
E_AS	190 mJ - Single-pulse avalanche energy rating; supports robustness against inductive switching transients without clamping.

Pinout & Package

TO-247AC package: isolated metal tab (cathode), single anode lead, and electrically isolated case for direct heatsink mounting without insulator.

Pin/Terminal	Circuit Role	Design Meaning
Anode (lead)	Forward current entry point	Connected to input side of rectifier stage (e.g., transformer secondary or switch node).
Cathode (tab)	Forward current exit / reverse blocking terminal	Mounted directly to heatsink; serves as high-current return path and primary thermal interface.

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
IXYS MUR6020CT	Same V_RRM (200 V), higher t_rr (50 ns), higher V_F (2.0 V), TO-220AB package	Lower thermal performance (R_thJC = 1.2 K/W); requires larger heatsink in high-power designs	Preferred where cost sensitivity outweighs thermal or EMI constraints; unsuitable for >250 kHz operation.
Vishay VS-60CPH02	Same V_RRM, identical TO-247AC package, slightly lower I_F(AV) (55 A), t_rr = 40 ns	Reduced current margin in sustained 60 A loads; comparable softness and avalanche rating	Valid drop-in replacement if design operates below 55 A average; verify thermal margin at T_C = 110 °C.

Compared with MUR6020CT and VS-60CPH02, STTH60W02CW delivers superior high-frequency efficiency via its 35 ns t_rr and lower R_thJC, enabling smaller heatsinks and reduced EMI filtering in compact 300+ kHz power systems.

FAQ

Is STTH60W02CW AEC-Q101 qualified?

No. STTH60W02CW is not AEC-Q101 qualified and is not intended for automotive safety-critical applications. It is qualified for industrial-grade operation per ST's standard reliability test flow, with guaranteed performance from –65 °C to +150 °C junction temperature.

What is the maximum allowable case temperature for continuous operation?

The maximum case temperature for continuous operation is 110 °C, as specified in the datasheet for rated I_F(AV) = 60 A. Exceeding this temperature requires derating per the published I_F vs. T_C curve, with thermal shutdown recommended above 130 °C case.

Can STTH60W02CW be used in parallel configurations?

Yes, but only with matched devices and symmetrical PCB layout. ST recommends using individual current-sharing resistors (0.01 Ω, 1% tolerance) in series with each anode and thermally coupled mounting to ensure balanced conduction and avoid thermal runaway.

Does STTH60W02CW have a built-in thermal protection feature?

No. STTH60W02CW is a passive rectifier diode with no integrated thermal sensing or shutdown circuitry. System-level thermal protection must be implemented externally via temperature sensors on the heatsink or case, with appropriate controller response logic.
