Product details
Overview
STPS1545CGY-TR from STMicroelectronics is an AEC-Q101-qualified dual center-tap Schottky rectifier in D2PAK package, rated for 45 V repetitive peak reverse voltage, 7.5 A average forward current per diode at 157 °C case temperature, and 0.57 V maximum forward voltage at 7.5 A and 125 °C junction temperature. It delivers negligible switching losses and extremely fast switching for low-voltage, high-frequency DC-DC converters in automotive power systems.
For engineers reviewing the STPS1545CGY-TR datasheet, STPS1545CGY-TR pinout, STPS1545CGY-TR application, or STPS1545CGY-TR equivalent, key selection criteria include avalanche capability (2700 W at 1 µs), thermal resistance (3.0 °C/W junction-to-case per diode), dV/dt rating (10,000 V/µs), and AEC-Q101 qualification for under-hood automotive use.
Technical Context
This dual-center-tap Schottky rectifier integrates two independent anode-cathode paths sharing a common cathode terminal (K), enabling synchronous rectification and polarity protection in half-bridge and full-wave configurations. Its silicon Schottky architecture eliminates minority-carrier storage delay, supporting operation up to several MHz without reverse recovery loss.
Thermal design relies on direct die-to-case conduction via the exposed D2PAK tab, with validated Rth(j-c) = 3.0 °C/W per diode and coupling resistance of 0.35 °C/W between dies. Avalanche energy handling is specified at 2700 W for 1 µs pulses at 25 °C, derating linearly with junction temperature and pulse duration.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 45 V - Maximum reverse blocking voltage before breakdown; sets upper limit for input/output rail separation in buck or flyback topologies. |
| IF(AV) per diode | 7.5 A at Tc = 157 °C - Continuous DC current capability per anode path with heatsink; defines minimum copper area and thermal interface requirements. |
| VF(max) | 0.57 V at IF = 7.5 A, Tj = 125 °C - Worst-case forward drop determining conduction loss (P ≈ 0.42×I + 0.020×I²) and thermal rise. |
| Rth(j-c) per diode | 3.0 °C/W - Junction-to-case thermal resistance; enables accurate die temperature estimation from measured case temperature. |
| dV/dt rating | 10,000 V/µs - Critical rate of rise of reverse voltage; ensures stable operation during fast-switching transients in synchronous rectifiers. |
| Avalanche energy | 2700 W at tp = 1 µs, Tj = 25 °C - Single-pulse non-repetitive surge capability; supports transient overvoltage clamping without failure. |
| IFSM | 150 A at tp = 10 ms, sinusoidal - Non-repetitive surge current rating; validates robustness against inrush or short-circuit events. |
Pinout & Package
Package: D2PAK (TO-263-3), surface-mount, lead-free, UL94 V0 epoxy, with exposed metal tab serving as thermal and electrical cathode connection.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A1 | Anode 1 | First Schottky diode anode; connects to high-side switch node in center-tapped transformer or half-bridge output. |
| A2 | Anode 2 | Second Schottky diode anode; connects to complementary switch node for full-wave or dual-output rectification. |
| K | Common Cathode | Shared cathode terminal tied to output rail or ground reference; serves as primary thermal path to PCB copper pour or heatsink. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Validated for automotive under-hood applications including engine control units and ADAS power supplies. |
| Dual center-tap configuration | Enables compact full-wave rectification without external center-tapped inductor; reduces component count vs. discrete dual-diode solutions. |
| Negligible switching losses | Zero reverse recovery charge (Qrr ≈ 0) eliminates turn-off loss and EMI associated with PN diodes. |
| Avalanche capability | Specified 2700 W single-pulse energy absorption protects against inductive kickback in motor drive and converter freewheeling paths. |
| High dV/dt immunity | 10,000 V/µs rating prevents spurious turn-on during fast voltage transients in high-speed gate-drive circuits. |

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-15BQ040-M3/45 | Single-anode Schottky, 40 V VRRM, 15 A IF(AV), TO-220AC package, no AEC-Q101 rating. | Lacks dual center-tap configuration and automotive qualification; requires two devices for equivalent functionality. | Use only in non-automotive industrial supplies where space and qualification are not constraints. |
| ON Semiconductor MBR1545CT | 45 V VRRM, 7.5 A per diode, TO-220AB package, AEC-Q101 qualified, but higher VF (0.65 V typ. at 7.5 A). | Same electrical ratings but larger footprint and 0.08 V higher typical forward drop increases conduction loss by ~11%. | Prefer when D2PAK mounting is incompatible with mechanical constraints, accepting minor efficiency penalty. |
Compared with VS-15BQ040-M3/45 and MBR1545CT, STPS1545CGY-TR uniquely combines dual center-tap topology, AEC-Q101 compliance, D2PAK thermal performance, and lowest VF in its class-enabling smaller, cooler, and automotive-compliant power stages.

FAQ
What is the thermal resistance from junction to case for each diode in STPS1545CGY-TR?
The datasheet specifies Rth(j-c) = 3.0 °C/W per diode, measured from each die to the common D2PAK case surface. This value assumes proper soldering of the exposed tab to ≥10 cm² of 35 µm copper on FR-4 PCB. Coupling resistance between dies is 0.35 °C/W, critical for multi-diode thermal modeling.
Is STPS1545CGY-TR suitable for synchronous rectification in a 1 MHz LLC converter?
Yes-its negligible reverse recovery charge and 0.57 V VF at 125 °C enable efficient synchronous rectification at 1 MHz. Layout must minimize loop inductance between A1/A2 and K terminals; the dual center-tap structure reduces stray inductance versus discrete diodes, lowering voltage spikes during commutation.
How does the avalanche rating of STPS1545CGY-TR compare to standard Schottky diodes?
Unlike most Schottky diodes, STPS1545CGY-TR has a fully specified avalanche capability: 2700 W at 1 µs pulse width and 25 °C. This allows safe clamping of inductive energy in freewheeling paths without external TVS, validated per AEC-Q101 stress test conditions.
Can STPS1545CGY-TR replace two separate STPS745D diodes in a design?
No-STPS745D is a single-diode DPAK device (45 V, 7.5 A). STPS1545CGY-TR integrates two matched diodes in one D2PAK with shared cathode, offering superior thermal coupling and reduced board area. Direct replacement requires verifying layout compatibility with the larger D2PAK footprint and updated thermal pad design.
