1A Schottky in a DO-214AA body
The STPS1L40U is a 40 V, 1 A Schottky barrier rectifier from STMicroelectronics, housed in a DO-214AA (SMB) surface-mount package. It targets low-voltage, high-frequency rectification and freewheeling in DC-DC converters, polarity protection, and OR-ing diodes in 5 V and 3.3 V rails.
At 1 A forward current, the maximum forward voltage is 500 mV — this sets the conduction loss floor at 0.5 W. The reverse leakage at 40 V is 35 µA, which rises with junction temperature and can dominate the thermal budget above 100°C.
