Product details

120 V, 10 A Schottky pair — what you get

The STPS20L120CT is a dual common-cathode Schottky rectifier from STMicroelectronics, packing two 10 A diodes rated for 120 V reverse voltage into a single TO-220-3 through-hole package. Reverse leakage sits at 120 µA when blocking 120 V, a typical figure for a 120 V Schottky of this current class. The pair shares a common cathode, so it is wired for center-tapped or half-bridge topologies — the anode of each diode is independent.

ST officially lists the STPS20L120CT as obsolete. If this part is on your active BOM, you need to qualify a replacement or secure a lifetime buy from the open market now — the available inventory shrinks every quarter as existing stock gets consumed.

Package and mounting — the TO-220-3 footprint

The supplier device package is TO-220. For a rework or repair tech: the three leads are the two anodes and the common cathode tab — the tab is the cathode connection, so the heatsink pad is electrically live. Mount it with a mica insulator and thermal grease if the heatsink is grounded.

For volume production, plan on qualifying a pin-compatible replacement or securing a surplus lot that covers your remaining build requirements.

Frequently asked questions

Is STPS20L120CT obsolete and what is the replacement?

Yes, the STPS20L120CT is obsolete per STMicroelectronics. For a replacement, look at other 120 V, dual common-cathode Schottky rectifiers in TO-220-3 from ST or competitors — the STPS20120CT series (if still active) or the STPS20H120CT are parametric siblings worth evaluating. Pin compatibility and electrical fit must be verified against your circuit's Vf, leakage, and thermal requirements.

What package is STPS20L120CT in?

It comes in a TO-220-3 through-hole package, also listed as supplier device package TO-220. Shipping form is tube.

Where can I buy STPS20L120CT?

Since the part is obsolete, it is not stocked by franchised distributors. Submit an inquiry for current availability and pricing.
