Product details
Overview
STTH806G from STMicroelectronics is an ultrafast 600 V, 8 A high-voltage rectifier diode in TO-220AC insulated package, optimized for switching power supplies and industrial AC/DC converters. It delivers 1.1 V typical forward voltage at 150 °C, 35 ns max reverse recovery time, and 2500 VRMS insulation rating for enhanced safety in isolated topologies.
For engineers reviewing the STTH806G datasheet, STTH806G pinout, STTH806G application, or STTH806G equivalent, key selection criteria include its low trr (35 ns), low thermal resistance (4 °C/W junction-to-case), high Tj rating (175 °C), and insulated package suitability for Class I safety-critical designs.
Technical Context
The STTH806G employs ST's Turbo 2 silicon technology to achieve soft-recovery characteristics with S-factor >1.0 across dIF/dt up to 500 A/µs, minimizing EMI in high-frequency SMPS. Its low IR (20 µA at 150 °C) and stable VF over temperature reduce conduction loss drift in thermally demanding environments.
Designed for hard-switched PFC and output rectification stages, it supports peak surge currents up to 90 A (10 ms sinusoidal) and operates reliably at junction temperatures up to 175 °C, enabling compact heatsink designs in 1–3 kW industrial power supplies.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 600 V - Withstands repetitive reverse voltage in boost PFC and flyback primary-side rectification without breakdown. |
| IF(AV) | 8 A at Tc = 120 °C - Sustains continuous DC output current in 500–1000 W offline SMPS with standard heatsinking. |
| trr (max) | 35 ns - Enables operation at ≥100 kHz switching frequencies while limiting switching losses and ringing. |
| VF (typ) | 1.10 V at IF = 8 A, Tj = 150 °C - Reduces conduction loss to ~8.8 W per diode in high-temp operation. |
| Rth(j-c) | 4 °C/W - Allows direct mounting to heatsink with predictable thermal rise; enables <100 °C junction rise at 8 A. |
| Isolation | 2500 VRMS - Meets reinforced insulation requirements for EN 60950-1/EN 62368-1 in secondary-side isolation barriers. |
| CJ (typ) | 7 pF at VR = 30 V - Minimizes capacitive coupling noise in gate-drive or feedback paths near high-dv/dt nodes. |
Pinout & Package
TO-220AC Insulated package with electrically isolated metal tab (no internal connection to cathode/anode). Mounting hole accepts M3 screw; recommended torque: 0.80 Nm.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (Lead 1) | Input current entry point | Connected to AC input or transformer secondary; carries full load current during forward conduction. |
| Cathode (Lead 2) | Output current exit point | Connected to bulk capacitor or output rail; defines reference node for voltage clamping and snubber design. |
| Tab (isolated) | Thermal interface only | Electrically floating metal surface for heatsink attachment; no circuit connection-enables safe mounting to chassis ground. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultrafast soft recovery | trr ≤ 35 ns with S-factor >1.0 ensures low EMI and reduced voltage overshoot during turn-off in hard-switched converters. |
| High-temperature operation | Rated for 175 °C junction temperature enables reliable performance in sealed enclosures or high-ambient industrial environments. |
| Low thermal resistance | Rth(j-c) = 4 °C/W allows efficient heat transfer to external heatsink without thermal derating below 8 A at Tc = 120 °C. |
| Reinforced insulation | 2500 VRMS isolation withstand meets basic/reinforced insulation requirements for medical and industrial safety standards. |
| ECOPACK® compliance | Lead-free second-level interconnect and RoHS-compliant packaging support environmentally regulated production programs. |

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable case temperature for continuous operation?
The STTH806G supports continuous operation at Tc = 120 °C when delivering its rated IF(AV) = 8 A. This is specified in Table 1 of the datasheet and validated under δ = 0.5 duty cycle conditions. Exceeding this temperature requires derating per the thermal curves in Figure 3.
Does the insulated TO-220AC package require a thermal pad or insulator between tab and heatsink?
No-the TO-220AC Ins package features an electrically isolated metal tab with integrated insulation rated for 2500 VRMS. Direct metal-to-metal mounting to the heatsink is permitted and recommended; no additional insulator or thermal pad is required for electrical isolation.
How does STTH806G compare to standard FR107 or UF4007 diodes in SMPS designs?
Compared to FR107 (trr ≈ 500 ns) or UF4007 (trr ≈ 75 ns), the STTH806G offers 35 ns trr and soft recovery, reducing switching losses by >60% and eliminating snubber circuits in 100–300 kHz designs. Its 600 V rating and 175 °C Tj also exceed both legacy parts.
Can STTH806G be used in parallel configurations for higher current handling?
Parallel operation is not recommended due to mismatch in VF temperature coefficients and dynamic recovery behavior. The datasheet specifies single-device ratings only; for >8 A applications, use higher-current alternatives like STTH1206D or implement interleaved topology instead.
