Product details
Overview
V3PM63HM3/I from Vishay General Semiconductor is a surface-mount Trench MOS Barrier Schottky (TMBS®) rectifier in SMP (DO-220AA) package, rated for 60 V repetitive peak reverse voltage, 3.0 A average forward current, and 0.53 V forward voltage at 3.0 A. It operates from −40 °C to +175 °C and is AEC-Q101 qualified for automotive-grade reliability in DC/DC converters and polarity protection circuits.
For engineers reviewing the V3PM63HM3/I datasheet, V3PM63HM3/I pinout, V3PM63HM3/I application, or V3PM63HM3/I equivalent, key selection criteria include its low VF (0.53 V @ 3 A), 60 A surge rating, MSL Level 1 moisture sensitivity, matte tin-plated terminals, and SMP package thermal resistance of 15 °C/W junction-to-mount.
Technical Context
The V3PM63HM3/I implements trench MOS Schottky technology to achieve lower forward voltage and higher efficiency than planar Schottky diodes. Its single-cathode/anode configuration supports unidirectional conduction with minimal switching losses in high-frequency operation up to several MHz.
Designed for automotive-grade environments, it meets JESD201 Class 2 whisker resistance and UL 94 V-0 flammability requirements. The device's RθJM = 15 °C/W enables effective heat transfer when mounted on a 10 mm × 10 mm copper pad, supporting sustained 3 A operation under controlled thermal conditions.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Schottky rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STPS3L60S | Same 60 V VRRM, 3 A IF(AV), but TO-277 package (higher RθJA = 180 °C/W); VF = 0.62 V @ 3 A | Larger footprint; less suitable for ultra-thin designs; requires larger thermal pad | Select when legacy TO-277 layout exists and AEC-Q101 is not required |
| MBR360VLSFT1G | SOD-123FL package (smaller); 60 V, 3 A, VF = 0.58 V @ 3 A; no AEC-Q101 qualification | Lower surge rating (IFSM = 45 A); not rated for automotive under-hood use | Select for cost-sensitive consumer power supplies where space is critical and automotive qualification is unnecessary |
Compared with STPS3L60S and MBR360VLSFT1G, the V3PM63HM3/I delivers superior thermal performance (RθJM = 15 °C/W), lowest forward voltage (0.53 V), and AEC-Q101 compliance-making it the preferred choice for thermally constrained, high-reliability automotive and industrial DC/DC applications.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for the V3PM63HM3/I?
The V3PM63HM3/I has a maximum junction temperature (TJ) of +175 °C, validated per AEC-Q101 stress testing. This allows reliable operation in under-hood automotive environments and high-power-density industrial converters where ambient temperatures exceed 100 °C. Derating curves in the datasheet confirm 3.0 A IF(AV) is sustainable up to 125 °C mount temperature when using the recommended 10 mm × 10 mm copper pad.
Is the V3PM63HM3/I pin-compatible with other SMP (DO-220AA) Schottky diodes?
Yes-the V3PM63HM3/I uses the standard SMP (DO-220AA) footprint with anode and cathode terminals in fixed positions per JEDEC MO-295. It shares identical mechanical dimensions and pad layout with all Vishay eSMP® TMBS® devices in this package, including V2PM63HM3/I and V5PM63HM3/I. No PCB redesign is needed when upgrading within the same VxPM63 family.
Does the V3PM63HM3/I meet automotive qualification standards?
Yes-the "HM3" suffix explicitly denotes AEC-Q101 qualification. The V3PM63HM3/I has passed temperature cycling, humidity bias, high-temperature operating life, and ESD tests per AEC-Q101 Rev D. It is approved for use in automotive powertrain, body control, and infotainment systems where failure modes must be rigorously mitigated.
What is the reverse leakage current specification for the V3PM63HM3/I at elevated temperature?
At VR = 60 V and TJ = 125 °C, the V3PM63HM3/I exhibits a maximum reverse leakage current (IR) of 1.0 mA, with typical value of 0.3 mA. This low leakage preserves system efficiency in battery-backed applications and ensures stable operation in high-temperature industrial environments without thermal runaway risk.
How does the V3PM63HM3/I's forward voltage compare to standard Schottky diodes in the same package?
The V3PM63HM3/I achieves 0.53 V VF at 3.0 A and 25 °C-up to 0.07 V lower than typical planar Schottky diodes (e.g., 1N5822 equivalents) in DO-220AA. This reduction directly lowers conduction loss by ~12 % in 12 V → 5 V buck converters, improving full-load efficiency from ~90 % to ~92.5 % and reducing thermal load on adjacent components.
