Automotive-grade Schottky — 80 V, 12 A, TO-277A
The Vishay V12P8HM3_A/H is a Trench MOS Barrier Schottky (TMBS®) rectifier from the eSMP® series, rated for 80 V reverse voltage and 12 A average rectified current. It is qualified to AEC-Q101, making it suitable for automotive power-train, body electronics, and DC-DC converter stages where reverse-polarity protection or freewheeling diodes are needed.
Forward drop and conduction loss at 12 A
Maximum forward voltage is 660 mV at 12 A, which sets the conduction loss floor in the power path.
Reverse leakage and blocking margin
Reverse leakage is specified at 1 mA at 80 V. In a nominal 48 V or 24 V automotive bus, the 80 V rating provides margin against load-dump and switching transients without pushing leakage into the thermal runaway region at high junction temperature.
