Product details

60 V / 1 A Schottky — conduction loss and leakage trade-off

The STPS160A is a 60 V, 1 A Schottky rectifier from STMicroelectronics in a DO-214AC (SMA) surface-mount package. Its 670 mV forward voltage at 1 A sets the conduction loss floor for low-voltage power rails, while the 4 µA reverse leakage at 60 V keeps standby draw in check — a trade-off that matters for battery-powered or always-on circuits.

Switching speed and recovery profile

Listed as a fast recovery type with ≤ 500 ns recovery time at > 200 mA, the STPS160A is suited for switching frequencies in the tens of kilohertz range — typical for secondary-side rectification in flyback converters or freewheeling diodes in low-power motor drives.

Package and assembly fit

The cathode tab provides the primary thermal path; board copper area under the tab sets the effective junction-to-ambient thermal resistance.

ROHS3 compliant. The base product number is STPS160; the 'A' suffix denotes the SMA package variant.

Frequently asked questions

Is STPS160A equivalent to SS16 or 1N5819?

All three are 60 V, 1 A Schottky diodes in SMA packages, but the STPS160A's 670 mV Vf at 1 A is higher than the 1N5819's typical 550 mV and lower than the SS16's 700 mV — differences that matter for thermal budget at full load. Pin-compatible for footprint, but verify the forward voltage and leakage trade-off for your operating temperature range before substituting.
