Product details
Overview
STPS20S100CR from STMicroelectronics is a dual common-cathode Schottky barrier rectifier optimized for high-frequency SMPS, DC/DC converters, and LED lighting. It delivers 2 × 10 A average forward current per diode, 100 V repetitive peak reverse voltage, and operates up to 175 °C junction temperature in TO-220AB and TO-220FPAB packages.
For engineers reviewing the STPS20S100CR datasheet, STPS20S100CR pinout, STPS20S100CR application, or STPS20S100CR equivalent, key selection criteria include thermal performance under high ambient conditions, low forward voltage at 125 °C (0.66 V typ. @ 10 A), avalanche energy rating (518 W), and dual-diode configuration for interleaved or parallel output stages.
Technical Context
This dual Schottky rectifier integrates two independent anodes (A1, A2) sharing a common cathode (K), enabling synchronous or split-output topologies in compact power supplies. Its low VF (0.66 V typ. @ 10 A, 125 °C) and low IR (≤4.5 mA @ 125 °C, VR = 100 V) minimize conduction and leakage losses in thermally constrained environments.
The device supports high-reliability operation via 175 °C maximum junction temperature, 180 A non-repetitive surge current, and specified avalanche capability (PARM = 518 W @ tp = 10 µs). Thermal resistance is package-dependent: Rth(j–c) = 1.3 °C/W (TO-220AB, total), 3.5 °C/W (TO-220FPAB, total).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| IF(AV) | 2 × 10 A per diode - enables dual-output or current-sharing designs without external paralleling |
| VRRM | 100 V - suitable for 48 V input systems with margin against transients |
| VF (typ.) | 0.66 V @ 10 A, 125 °C - reduces conduction loss by ~15% vs. comparable 0.78 V devices at elevated temperature |
| Tj max | 175 °C - allows placement in confined, high-ambient zones (e.g., enclosed LED drivers) |
| IR (max) | 4.5 mA @ 125 °C, VR = 100 V - limits standby power loss in always-on DC/DC stages |
| PARM | 518 W @ tp = 10 µs - provides robustness against inductive switching surges in buck-derived topologies |
| Rth(j–c) | 1.3 °C/W (TO-220AB, total) - enables >20 W dissipation with standard heatsink mounting |
Pinout & Package
Available in TO-220AB (3-pin, insulated tab) and TO-220FPAB (3-pin, non-insulated flange) packages. Both feature common-cathode configuration with pins labeled A1, A2, and K.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A1 | Anode 1 | First diode anode; used for primary output path or phase 1 in interleaved designs |
| A2 | Anode 2 | Second diode anode; enables dual-rail outputs or redundancy without extra components |
| K | Common Cathode | Shared cathode node; simplifies PCB layout and thermal management for dual-diode operation |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| High Tj capability | 175 °C max junction temperature - eliminates derating in sealed adapters or LED ballasts |
| Low VF at high Tj | 0.66 V typ. @ 10 A, 125 °C - maintains efficiency when ambient exceeds 85 °C |
| Avalanche-rated | 518 W repetitive peak avalanche power - withstands MOSFET turn-off spikes in hard-switched converters |
| ECOPACK®2 compliant | Halogen-free, RoHS-compliant packaging - meets industrial and lighting environmental mandates |
| Low IR at 125 °C | ≤4.5 mA reverse leakage - critical for low-power standby regulation in multi-output SMPS |

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-20CPH05-M3 | Single-diode, 20 A IF(AV), 50 V VRRM, TO-220AC package, VF = 0.52 V @ 10 A, 25 °C | Lacks dual-anode configuration and 100 V rating; unsuitable for 48 V bus applications | Select only for lower-voltage (<40 V), single-output designs where dual rectification is unnecessary |
| ON Semiconductor MBR20100CT | Dual common-cathode, 20 A IF(AV), 100 V VRRM, TO-220AB, VF = 0.82 V @ 10 A, 25 °C, Tj max = 150 °C | Higher VF (+0.16 V typ. at 25 °C) and lower Tj limit reduces efficiency in high-ambient LED drivers | Acceptable for cost-sensitive 48 V SMPS where thermal headroom exceeds 25 °C and efficiency <92% is acceptable |
Compared with VS-20CPH05-M3 and MBR20100CT, STPS20S100CR uniquely combines 100 V rating, dual-anode topology, 175 °C Tj, and sub-0.67 V VF at 125 °C-making it optimal for thermally aggressive, multi-output, or high-bus-voltage SMPS where reliability and efficiency co-constrain design.

FAQ
What is the thermal resistance from junction to case for STPS20S100CR in TO-220AB?
The total junction-to-case thermal resistance (Rth(j–c)) for STPS20S100CR in TO-220AB is 1.3 °C/W under specified mounting conditions. This value applies to the combined dissipation of both diodes and assumes proper heatsink interface with recommended torque (0.55 N·m) on the mounting screw.
Does STPS20S100CR support avalanche operation in continuous mode?
No-STPS20S100CR is rated for repetitive peak avalanche power (PARM = 518 W) only under pulsed conditions (tp = 10 µs, Tj = 125 °C). It is not designed for continuous avalanche conduction; sustained reverse bias beyond VRRM risks irreversible failure.
How are the anodes A1 and A2 electrically isolated in STPS20S100CR?
A1 and A2 are fully isolated semiconductor dies sharing only the common cathode metallization. There is no internal electrical connection between A1 and A2; each anode conducts independently to K, enabling true dual-channel rectification with separate input paths.
Can STPS20S100CR be used in place of a single 20 A Schottky diode?
Yes-but only if the circuit uses both anodes (A1 and A2) in parallel with matched trace lengths and thermal coupling. Using only one anode forfeits half the rated current and unbalances thermal distribution; full 20 A utilization requires simultaneous conduction of both diodes into the shared cathode.
