Product details
Overview
STPS20H100CG-TR from STMicroelectronics is a 100 V, 2 × 10 A dual center-tap Schottky rectifier in D²PAK (TO-263) package, optimized for high-frequency switch-mode power supplies. It delivers typ. 0.59 V forward voltage at 10 A and 125 °C, supports 175 °C max junction temperature, and features avalanche rating and 2000 VRMS insulation capability in insulated variants - used in notebook adapters and on-board DC/DC converters.
For engineers reviewing the STPS20H100CG-TR datasheet, STPS20H100CG-TR pinout, STPS20H100CG-TR application, or STPS20H100CG-TR equivalent, key selection criteria include forward voltage vs. temperature trade-off, thermal resistance (Rth(j-c) = 1.6 °C/W per diode), avalanche energy handling (775 W peak), and D²PAK mounting compatibility with FR4 PCB copper area optimization.
Technical Context
This dual-center-tap Schottky rectifier integrates two independent 100 V / 10 A diodes sharing a common cathode terminal, enabling synchronous rectification in center-tapped transformer topologies. Its low Qrr and negligible reverse recovery charge minimize switching losses in 100–500 kHz SMPS designs.
The device operates up to 175 °C junction temperature with controlled leakage (<6 mA at 125 °C, VRRM), and its Rth(j-c) of 1.6 °C/W (per diode) enables efficient heat transfer to external heatsinks via the exposed tab - critical for thermally constrained LED drivers and compact AC/DC adapters.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 100 V - blocks full reverse voltage in center-tapped secondary windings without breakdown. |
| IF(AV) per diode | 10 A - continuous DC current handling per anode leg under TC = 160 °C, defining thermal design margin. |
| VF (typ) | 0.59 V @ 10 A, 125 °C - directly reduces conduction loss (P ≈ 0.55×IF(AV) + 0.009×IF(RMS)²) in high-temp operation. |
| Tj(max) | +175 °C - enables operation in sealed enclosures or high-ambient industrial LED drivers without derating. |
| Rth(j-c) | 1.6 °C/W per diode - determines minimum heatsink requirement when mounted on 35 µm Cu FR4 with ≥30 cm² copper area. |
| IFSM | 250 A @ 10 ms sine - withstands inrush currents during cold-start in 65 W notebook adapters. |
| Avalanche rating | 775 W @ 10 µs pulse, Tj = 125 °C - protects against transient overvoltage in unregulated flyback secondaries. |
Pinout & Package
D²PAK (TO-263) package with isolated mounting tab (2000 VRMS insulation), 3-pin configuration: two anodes (A1, A2) and one common cathode (K). Exposed metal tab serves as cathode terminal and primary thermal path.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A1 | Anode 1 | Connects to first winding half of center-tapped transformer secondary; carries up to 10 A DC. |
| A2 | Anode 2 | Connects to second winding half; electrically isolated from A1 but shares cathode return path. |
| K (Tab) | Common cathode | Exposed metal tab functions as both electrical cathode and thermal interface; must be soldered to ≥30 cm² Cu pour. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Negligible switching losses | Zero reverse recovery charge (Qrr ≈ 0) eliminates turn-off loss and EMI in 300 kHz+ DC/DC converters. |
| Avalanche rated | 775 W repetitive peak avalanche power enables robustness against transformer leakage spikes without snubbers. |
| High Tj capability | 175 °C max junction temperature allows full 10 A rating in ambient >85 °C environments like enclosed LED luminaires. |
| Low leakage at high Tj | <6 mA @ 125 °C, VRRM - prevents thermal runaway in parallel configurations and improves no-load efficiency. |
| ECOPACK®2 compliant | Meets RoHS, halogen-free, and lead-free reflow requirements for automotive and industrial end-equipment compliance. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual center-tap Schottky rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vishay VS-20CPH05-M3 | 50 V VRRM, 20 A total, TO-220AB package, Rth(j-c) = 1.5 °C/W, no avalanche rating | Limited to ≤50 V outputs; requires external heatsink due to non-insulated TO-220AB package | Select only for cost-sensitive 12–24 V systems where voltage margin and isolation are not required |
| ON Semiconductor MBR20100CT | 100 V VRRM, 20 A total, TO-220AB, Rth(j-c) = 1.7 °C/W, VF = 0.82 V @ 10 A, 25 °C | Higher forward drop increases conduction loss by ~1.2 W at 10 A; lacks avalanche rating and ECOPACK2 compliance | Acceptable for lower-efficiency, non-automotive applications where thermal margin exceeds 15 °C |
Compared with VS-20CPH05-M3 and MBR20100CT, STPS20H100CG-TR uniquely combines 100 V rating, 175 °C operation, avalanche ruggedness, and D²PAK surface-mount compatibility - making it the only option qualified for thermally dense, high-reliability 65 W adapter and industrial DC/DC designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous forward current per diode at 145 °C case temperature?
The STPS20H100CG-TR supports 10 A average forward current per diode at TC = 160 °C for D²PAK mounting. At TC = 145 °C, derating is not required - the 10 A rating remains valid per diode, as confirmed in Table 1 of DS1216 Rev 10. This reflects its robust thermal design for high-ambient applications.
Does the D²PAK package provide electrical isolation between the tab and PCB ground plane?
No - the D²PAK variant (STPS20H100CG-TR) has a non-insulated tab: the cathode (K) is electrically connected to the exposed metal pad. For 2000 VRMS isolation, ST offers the TO-220FPAB version (STPS20H100CFP), which uses an insulated package with dielectric coating on the mounting surface.
Can this device replace two separate 10 A Schottky diodes in a center-tap design?
Yes - STPS20H100CG-TR integrates two matched 10 A Schottky diodes with a common cathode, eliminating layout mismatch and thermal imbalance. Its dual-die construction ensures identical VF and thermal characteristics across both legs, improving current sharing and reliability versus discrete pairs.
What is the recommended minimum copper area for thermal performance on FR4 PCB?
For optimal thermal performance, ST recommends ≥30 cm² of 35 µm copper on the component side connected to the cathode tab, as shown in Figure 9 of DS1216. With this layout, Rth(j-a) drops to ~15 °C/W, enabling full 20 A device current at Tamb = 50 °C without forced air cooling.
