In consumer electronics, it is often used in AC-DC inverter, DC-DC converters and battery chargers. In the industrial sector, it can be used in AC-DC power supplies and high power switching applications.

The STTH3012D is designed with a high-side integrated power MOSFET with 200V breakdown voltage, which provides more efficient energy transfer and improved EMC performance. Additionally, it has a soft reverse recovery diode with fast reverse recovery behavior, which helps reduce switching losses and make it suitable for high current applications. The device is also equipped with a xenon-filled ceramic tube which improves functional safety, provides ESD protection and increases reliability. It has a peak reverse recovery current of 30 A, forward voltage drop of 1.2V and an operating junction temperature of 150°C.

The STTH3012D works on the principle of rectifying an alternating current (AC) input to a direct current (DC) output. It achieves this by utilizing the two different states within the device, ON-state and OFF-state. During the ON-state the current flows freely through the diode, while during the OFF-state the diode blocks the current from flowing. When an AC input is applied, the alternating current is converted to a direct current by the action of the diode turning ON and OFF at the appropriate times throughout the cycle. This repeating process converts the AC current to a DC current and is rectification.

In summation, the STTH3012D is a high-speed diode rectifier capable of delivering up to fifty amps of continuous output current. It is a single device that has a reverse Voltage rating of twelve Volts and max. of thirty three Volts. The STTH3012D has a variety of applications within the automotive, renewable energy, consumer electronics and industrial markets due to its high peak current and rapid switching capabilities. It works on the principle of rectifying an alternating current (AC) input to a direct current (DC) output and utilizes the two different states within the device, ON-state and OFF-state, to facilitate this process.
