Product details
Overview
STPS10170CB from STMicroelectronics is a dual-center-tab high-voltage Schottky rectifier in DPAK package, rated for 170 V repetitive peak reverse voltage, 5 A average forward current per diode (10 A total), and 175 °C maximum junction temperature. It delivers low forward voltage drop (0.69 V typ. at 125 °C, 5 A) with low leakage (≤10 µA at 25 °C, ≤10 mA at 125 °C), enabling efficient operation in high-frequency SMPS output stages.
For engineers reviewing the STPS10170CB datasheet, STPS10170CB pinout, STPS10170CB application, or STPS10170CB equivalent, key selection criteria include thermal resistance (Rth(j-c) = 4 °C/W per diode), avalanche capability (220 W, 10 µs), dual-diode configuration with shared cathode tab, and DPAK mechanical compatibility for board-level thermal management.
Technical Context
This dual Schottky rectifier integrates two independent anodes and a common cathode terminal, optimized for synchronous rectification and OR-ing applications in isolated DC-DC converters. Its low VF/IR trade-off enables reduced conduction loss while maintaining robust reverse blocking up to 170 V.
Thermal design relies on case-to-heatsink conduction via the center tab; junction-to-case resistance is 4 °C/W per diode, and coupling resistance between diodes is 0.7 °C/W. Avalanche energy rating (220 W, 10 µs pulse at Tj = 125 °C) supports transient overvoltage resilience without external clamping.
Key Specifications

| IF(AV) | 5 A per diode - Continuous average forward current at Tc = 155 °C, defining steady-state power delivery capacity |
| VF (Typ) | 0.69 V at 125 °C, 5 A - Low conduction loss enabling >92% efficiency in 12 V–48 V output rails |
| IR (Max) | 10 mA at 125 °C, VRRM - Controlled leakage ensures minimal standby power loss in offline adapters |
| Tj(max) | 175 °C - Enables operation in high-ambient industrial environments without derating |
| Rth(j-c) | 4 °C/W per diode - Directly determines heatsink sizing when mounted on PCB copper pour |
| PARM | 220 W (10 µs) - Specifies single-pulse avalanche energy handling for surge immunity |
Pinout & Package
The STPS10170CB is housed in a surface-mount DPAK (TO-252) package with three terminals: two anodes (A1, A2) and one common cathode (K) connected to the exposed center thermal tab. The tab is electrically tied to the cathode and must be soldered to a large copper area for thermal dissipation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A1 | Anode 1 | Input terminal for first Schottky diode; connects to transformer secondary or input rail in dual-path designs |
| A2 | Anode 2 | Input terminal for second Schottky diode; enables independent control or parallel current sharing |
| K (Tab) | Common Cathode | Output node shared by both diodes; thermally and electrically coupled to PCB ground plane or output rail |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual-anode, common-cathode topology | Enables compact dual-output or redundant rectification without discrete cathode routing |
| ECOPACK®2 compliance | Meets RoHS and halogen-free requirements for industrial and consumer end-equipment |
| Avalanche-rated (220 W, 10 µs) | Eliminates need for external TVS in flyback snubberless designs with controlled turn-off transients |
| Low Rth(j-c) = 4 °C/W per diode | Supports >5 A continuous operation with ≤25 °C temperature rise using 25 mm² 2-oz copper |
| High Tj(max) = 175 °C | Permits full-rated current in enclosed power supplies operating up to 85 °C ambient |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-voltage dual Schottky rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STPS10170CG | D²PAK package (Rth(j-c) = 2.4 °C/W total), higher thermal performance, 1.38 g weight | Better suited for high-power (>15 W per diode) applications requiring lower junction rise | Select when board layout allows larger footprint and thermal mass is prioritized over density |
| MBR10150CT | 150 V VRRM, 10 A total IF(AV), TO-220AC package, no avalanche rating | Limited to lower-input-voltage SMPS; lacks transient surge resilience | Choose only if 170 V margin is unnecessary and through-hole mounting is required |
Compared with STPS10170CG, the STPS10170CB offers tighter board area usage and faster assembly but requires more aggressive copper pour design; versus MBR10150CT, it provides critical 20 V reverse margin and certified avalanche robustness for automotive-grade reliability.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable case temperature for continuous operation?
The STPS10170CB is rated for 155 °C case temperature at full 5 A per diode average forward current. Exceeding this requires proportional current derating per Figure 2 in the datasheet; operation above 155 °C risks accelerated parametric drift and reduced lifetime.
Can the two anodes be used with different input sources simultaneously?
Yes - the device supports independent anode biasing. Each anode operates as a separate Schottky diode with the common cathode, enabling OR-ing, dual-output rectification, or interleaved phase operation without internal coupling beyond thermal interaction (Rth(c) = 0.7 °C/W).
Is the center thermal tab electrically isolated?
No - the exposed center tab is internally connected to the common cathode (K) terminal. It must be routed to the same net as the cathode and cannot be used as a floating thermal pad; isolation requires external insulation or dedicated heatsink mounting hardware.
Does ST provide SPICE models for STPS10170CB?
ST does not publish a verified SPICE model for STPS10170CB. Designers should use the datasheet's static VF/IR curves and thermal parameters for behavioral simulation; dynamic switching behavior requires measurement-based characterization due to package parasitics and dual-diode coupling effects.
