STTH812G Description

The STTH812G from STMicroelectronics is a high-voltage, fast-recovery rectifier diode designed for demanding power electronics applications. With a 1200V reverse voltage (Vr) and 8A average rectified current (Io), it delivers robust performance in high-power circuits. Its fast recovery time (trr) of 100ns ensures efficient switching, minimizing energy losses in high-frequency applications. The diode features a low forward voltage drop (2.2V @ 8A), enhancing thermal efficiency, and operates reliably at junction temperatures up to 175°C. Packaged in a D2PAK (TO-263) surface-mount format, it is suitable for automated assembly while offering excellent thermal dissipation.
