Product details
Overview
30CTQ045STRL from Vishay is a center-tap dual Schottky rectifier rated for 2 × 15 A average forward current per leg, 45 V maximum reverse voltage, and 175 °C junction operation - optimized for low VF (0.56 V @ 15 A, 125 °C) in high-frequency switching power supplies and reverse battery protection circuits.
For engineers reviewing the 30CTQ045STRL datasheet, 30CTQ045STRL pinout, 30CTQ045STRL application, or 30CTQ045STRL equivalent, key selection criteria include its D2PAK-3L package thermal resistance (RthJC = 3.25 °C/W per leg), 1060 A non-repetitive surge rating, and center-tap common-cathode configuration for half-bridge freewheeling and DC/DC converter outputs.
Technical Context
This dual-leg Schottky rectifier integrates two independent anode terminals sharing a common cathode terminal, enabling synchronous rectification or center-tapped transformer secondary rectification. Its proprietary barrier technology ensures stable operation up to 175 °C TJ with low leakage (15 mA @ 125 °C, VR = 45 V).
Designed for high-frequency DC/DC conversion, it delivers fast recovery (dV/dt = 10,000 V/µs), low junction capacitance (900 pF @ 5 V), and minimal series inductance (8.0 nH), supporting efficient operation in >100 kHz switch-mode topologies without snubber networks.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Schottky rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vishay VS-30CTQ045S | Same die, identical electrical specs; tube packaging (no tape-and-reel), no TRL suffix | No difference in circuit function or thermal performance; differs only in packaging format | Select 30CTQ045STRL for automated SMT placement; choose VS-30CTQ045S for manual prototyping or low-volume hand assembly |
| ON Semiconductor MBR3045CT | 45 V VRRM, 30 A IF(AV), TO-220AB package; VF = 0.72 V @ 15 A, 25 °C (higher than 30CTQ045STRL) | Higher thermal resistance (RthJC ≈ 2.5 °C/W but per package, not per leg); requires larger heatsink for same power | Use MBR3045CT where through-hole mounting is required; prefer 30CTQ045STRL for higher efficiency and surface-mount integration |
Compared with VS-30CTQ045S and MBR3045CT, the 30CTQ045STRL offers superior thermal performance per leg (3.25 °C/W), lower VF at elevated temperature, and tape-and-reel compatibility - making it optimal for high-efficiency, high-density SMT power designs requiring automotive-grade reliability.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for the 30CTQ045STRL?
The 30CTQ045STRL is rated for a maximum junction temperature of 175 °C, verified per Vishay's Q101 qualification testing. This allows uninterrupted operation in high-ambient environments such as enclosed industrial power supplies or under-hood automotive modules without thermal derating below 125 °C ambient. The 30CTQ045STRL maintains stable VF and IR characteristics across this full range.
Does the 30CTQ045STRL have a center-tap configuration, and how is it implemented?
Yes, the 30CTQ045STRL uses a center-tap configuration with two anode terminals (Pins 1 and 3) and one shared cathode terminal (Pin 2). This arrangement enables full-wave rectification from center-tapped transformers or dual-phase synchronous rectification in DC/DC converters. The 30CTQ045STRL's internal layout ensures matched electrical characteristics between both legs for balanced current sharing.
What is the forward voltage drop of the 30CTQ045STRL at 15 A and 125 °C?
The 30CTQ045STRL exhibits a maximum forward voltage drop of 0.56 V per leg at 15 A and 125 °C junction temperature, as specified in the Vishay datasheet (Document Number 93957). This low VF value directly reduces conduction losses in high-current applications - for example, cutting 1.7 W of heat per leg compared to typical silicon rectifiers at the same conditions.
Is the 30CTQ045STRL lead-free and RoHS compliant?
Yes, the 30CTQ045STRL is lead (Pb)-free and complies with RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU. The "TRL" suffix indicates tape-and-reel packaging, and the device carries Vishay's standard Pb-free marking per their documentation (Doc. #95008). No exemption codes apply, and all homogeneous materials meet RoHS threshold limits.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to case for each leg of the 30CTQ045STRL?
The 30CTQ045STRL has a maximum thermal resistance of 3.25 °C/W from junction to case per leg, measured under DC conditions (Vishay Doc. #93957, Fig. 4). This value applies individually to each rectifier leg and enables precise thermal modeling when designing PCB copper pour areas or selecting heatsink interfaces for the D2PAK-3L exposed pad.
