Overview
The STPS3L60RL is a 60 V, 3 A low drop Schottky rectifier produced by STMicroelectronics. This axial and surface mount power Schottky rectifier is designed for use in switch mode power supplies and high frequency DC to DC converters. It is particularly suited for applications requiring low voltage, high frequency inverters, and small battery chargers, especially where space constraints are a factor, such as in telecom battery chargers.
