STPS2L25
Low drop power Schottky rectifier
Main product characteristics
Features and benefits
■ Very low forward voltage drop for less power
dissipation
■ Optimized conduction/reverse losses trade-off
which means the highest efficiency in the
applications
■ Avalanche capability specified
Description
Single Schottky rectifier suited to switched mode
power supplies and high frequency DC to DC
converters.
Packaged in SMB, SMB flat for thermal resistance
characteristic improvement, this device is
especially intended for use in parallel with
MOSFETs in synchronous rectification.
