Product details

The STPS20SM60ST is a 60 V, 20 A Schottky rectifier from STMicroelectronics in a TO-220-3 through-hole package. It is rated for fast recovery (≤500 ns at >200 mA). The 630 mV forward drop at 20 A is the figure to budget for conduction loss.

STMicroelectronics lists the STPS20SM60ST as obsolete.

Junction temperature and thermal limits

The maximum junction temperature is 150°C. That is the absolute ceiling for the silicon; continuous operation near that limit requires careful thermal management — the TO-220's junction-to-case thermal resistance is the number to pull from the datasheet for heatsink sizing. The 85 µA reverse leakage at 60 V is specified at 25°C; leakage roughly doubles for every 10°C rise, so at elevated junction temperatures the standby loss contribution grows.

Frequently asked questions

What is the replacement for STPS20SM60ST?

STMicroelectronics has not published an official successor order code for the STPS20SM60ST. For a form-fit-function replacement, look at the STPS20H100CT (100 V, 20 A, TO-220) or the STPS2045CT (45 V, 20 A, TO-220) — both are active Schottky rectifiers in the same package, but verify the voltage and forward drop trade-offs against your circuit's requirements.
