Product Description

The SS56A Schottky Barrier Diode is a high-efficiency 5A,60V surface mount diode featuring an ultra-low forward voltage drop (Vf ~0.7V) and fast switching capabilities. It is ideal for power rectification, DC-DC converters, reverse polarity protection, and high-frequency circuits, helping to minimize heat generation and improve energy efficiency.

Key Features

  • Package Type: SMA (DO-214AC) – Compact and suitable for high-density PCB designs.
  • Schottky Technology: Low forward voltage drop (typically 0.7V at 5A), reducing power loss.
  • High Current Rating: 5A average forward current capability.
  • Peak Reverse Voltage: 60V, making it suitable for low-voltage applications.
  • Fast Switching: Minimal reverse recovery time, enhancing efficiency in high-frequency circuits.
  • Low Leakage Current: Ensures better performance in power-sensitive designs.
  • Operating Temperature Range: -55°C to +150°C, suitable for various environments.

Typical Applications

  • Switching power supplies
  • Freewheeling diodes
  • Reverse polarity protection
  • Solar panels & battery charging circuits
  • Portable electronics

Advantages

Compared to conventional PN-junction diodes, the SS56A offers:

  • Lower power dissipation due to reduced forward voltage.
  • Faster switching speeds, improving efficiency in high-frequency applications.
  • Better thermal performance in compact designs.
