Product details
Overview
STTH806TTI from STMicroelectronics is an insulated ultra-fast 600 V tandem diode composed of two 300 V dice in series, designed specifically as a boost diode in continuous-conduction-mode (CCM) power factor correction (PFC) circuits operating under hard-switching conditions. It delivers 8 A average forward current, 14 A RMS forward current, and ultra-low reverse recovery time (13 ns at 25°C), enabling reduced MOSFET switching losses and smaller heatsink sizing.
For engineers reviewing the STTH806TTI datasheet, STTH806TTI pinout, STTH806TTI application, or STTH806TTI equivalent, key selection criteria include its 2.6 V max forward voltage at 125°C, 4–5.5 A peak reverse recovery current under high dIF/dt (−200 A/µs), softness factor of 0.4, 2500 VRMS insulation rating, and TO-220AB insulated package for flexible thermal management.
Technical Context
The STTH806TTI implements a tandem die architecture-two monolithic 300 V diodes connected in series-to achieve 600 V blocking capability without external voltage-balancing networks. Its ultra-fast recovery (trr = 13 ns typ. at 25°C) and low stored charge (Qrr < 20 nC at IF = 8 A, dIF/dt = −200 A/µs) minimize turn-off losses and EMI generation in high-frequency PFC stages.
It features a soft recovery characteristic (Sfactor = 0.4) and low transient forward voltage overshoot (VFP = 7 V at dIF/dt = 100 A/µs), reducing voltage stress on associated MOSFETs. The internal ceramic insulation enables direct mounting to common or isolated heatsinks while maintaining 2500 VRMS isolation between case and terminals.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 600 V - Enables use in universal-input (90–265 VAC) CCM PFC front-ends with margin against line surges. |
| IF(AV) | 8 A - Supports continuous conduction mode operation up to ~500 W output in single-phase PFC designs. |
| trr | 13 ns (typ., 25°C) - Reduces switching loss and dv/dt-induced gate ringing in fast-switching GaN/SiC-compatible topologies. |
| VF (max) | 2.6 V @ Tj = 125°C, IF = 8 A - Limits conduction loss to ≤27 W total dissipation at Tc = 80°C. |
| Rth(j-c) | 2.6 °C/W (total) - Allows thermal design with standard TO-220 heatsinks; per-diode Rth(j-c) = 5 °C/W. |
| Insulation | 2500 VRMS, 7 pF - Permits safe mounting on shared chassis grounds without creepage/clearance compromises. |
| Sfactor | 0.4 - Suppresses voltage spikes during recovery, lowering snubber requirements and MOSFET VDS stress. |
Pinout & Package
STTH806TTI uses an insulated TO-220AB package with three terminals: Anode (pin 1), Cathode (pin 2), and electrically isolated metal tab (pin 3). The tab serves as a thermally conductive but electrically floating heat transfer surface, rated for 2500 VRMS isolation from both terminals.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (Pin 1) | Input terminal for forward current flow | Connected to PFC inductor node; withstands full 600 V reverse bias during switch-off. |
| Cathode (Pin 2) | Output terminal for forward current flow | Connected to bulk capacitor positive rail; carries full load current with minimal VF-related loss. |
| Metal Tab | Electrically isolated thermal interface | Mounts directly to heatsink without insulator washer; enables compact layout and simplified thermal path. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar ultra-fast insulated boost diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH8R06DJF | Same 600 V VRRM, 8 A IF(AV), but non-insulated TO-220FP package; Rth(j-c) = 3.5 °C/W; no 2500 VRMS isolation. | Requires insulating washer and thermal pad; unsuitable where chassis-grounded heatsinking is mandatory. | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs isolation requirement and PCB layout permits insulated mounting. |
| IXYS MUR860E | 600 V VRRM, 8 A IF(AV), non-tandem construction; trr = 35 ns (typ.), Sfactor ≈ 0.25; TO-220AC package. | Higher recovery loss and harder switching increase MOSFET stress; not optimized for high-dIF/dt PFC. | Select only for lower-frequency (<65 kHz) or discontinuous-mode PFC where softness and speed are less critical. |
Compared with STTH8R06DJF and IXYS MUR860E, the STTH806TTI uniquely combines tandem die voltage balancing, 2500 VRMS insulation, and sub-15 ns trr-making it the only choice for high-density, high-reliability CCM PFC designs requiring zero external balancing and direct heatsink mounting.

FAQ
What is the maximum recommended case temperature for continuous operation?
The STTH806TTI is rated for 150°C maximum junction temperature. With a total junction-to-case thermal resistance of 2.6 °C/W, continuous operation at 8 A average current requires case temperature ≤80°C to maintain safe thermal margin-verified by the 27 W conduction power dissipation rating at Tc = 80°C.
Does the STTH806TTI require external voltage balancing components?
No. Its tandem die architecture integrates two matched 300 V diodes in series, ensuring inherent voltage sharing across the 600 V blocking rating. STMicroelectronics specifies this eliminates the need for external balancing resistors or capacitors in typical PFC applications, as confirmed in the device description and major product characteristics section.
How does the softness factor of 0.4 impact system-level design?
A softness factor of 0.4 indicates controlled, gradual current decay during reverse recovery-reducing high-frequency ringing and electromagnetic interference. This lowers peak voltage overshoot on the switching MOSFET, decreasing snubber component size and count, and improving overall system reliability in high-dIF/dt PFC converters.
Can the insulated tab be connected to system ground?
Yes-the metal tab is electrically isolated (2500 VRMS) and may be safely bolted to a grounded heatsink or chassis without risk of short circuit. This simplifies mechanical assembly and improves thermal coupling, unlike non-insulated TO-220 variants that require mica washers or silicone pads for isolation.
