Product details
Overview
STPS30170DJF-TR from STMicroelectronics is a 170 V, 30 A average forward current Schottky rectifier in PowerFLAT™ 5x6 package, optimized for high-frequency DC/DC converters and SMPS with low conduction losses (VF = 0.71 V @ 125 °C, 30 A), low thermal resistance (Rth(j-c) = 2.5 °C/W), and high avalanche capability (900 W, tp = 10 µs). It serves as a fast-switching, low-VF freewheeling or polarity protection diode in telecom power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the STPS30170DJF-TR datasheet, STPS30170DJF-TR pinout, STPS30170DJF-TR application, or STPS30170DJF-TR equivalent, key selection criteria include reverse voltage rating (170 V), thermal performance under PCB copper area constraints, avalanche energy handling, conduction loss modeling (P = 0.65×IF(AV) + 0.0046×IF²(RMS)), and ECOPACK®2 compliance for RoHS- and halogen-free manufacturing.
Technical Context
This Schottky rectifier uses a planar silicon structure with metal–semiconductor junction to achieve negligible switching losses and extremely fast recovery (no minority-carrier storage). Its VF vs. IF curve shows strong temperature compensation - VF drops from 0.88 V (25 °C) to 0.71 V (125 °C) at 30 A - enabling stable conduction across wide ambient ranges.
Designed for conduction-dominated topologies, it specifies Rth(j-c) = 2.5 °C/W and supports up to 45 A RMS forward current with proper heatsinking. Avalanche robustness is characterized at 900 W (tp = 10 µs, Tj = 125 °C), making it suitable for inductive load commutation where transient overvoltage occurs.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 170 V - Maximum repetitive reverse blocking voltage; defines safe operating range in flyback or buck-boost topologies. |
| IF(AV) | 30 A - Average forward current at TC = 80 °C, δ = 0.5; sets continuous output capability in DC/DC stages. |
| VF(typ.) | 0.71 V @ 125 °C, 30 A - Low forward drop directly reduces conduction loss and improves efficiency at full load and elevated temperature. |
| Rth(j-c) | 2.5 °C/W - Junction-to-case thermal resistance; enables direct PCB copper pad cooling without external heatsink in space-constrained designs. |
| PARM | 900 W @ tp = 10 µs, Tj = 125 °C - Repetitive avalanche power rating; ensures reliability during inductive turn-off transients in motor drives or SMPS. |
| IR(max) | 12 mA @ Tj = 125 °C, VR = VRRM - Reverse leakage limits standby power loss and thermal runaway risk in high-temp operation. |
| Package | PowerFLAT™ 5x6 - Surface-mount, low-profile (1.0 mm max height), thermally enhanced package with exposed cathode pad for optimal heat transfer. |
Pinout & Package
STPS30170DJF-TR uses a 2-terminal PowerFLAT™ 5x6 package with anode and cathode terminals on the bottom side. The exposed copper pad (cathode) provides primary thermal path to PCB; no internal isolation or control pins are present.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Input current entry point | Connected to source-side of switching node; must withstand surge current (IFSM = 200 A) and reverse voltage stress. |
| Cathode (exposed pad) | Output current exit & thermal interface | Serves dual role: electrical return path and primary heat dissipation surface; requires minimum 3.34 × 3.70 mm² copper area per Figure 8. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low forward voltage drop | VF = 0.71 V @ 125 °C, 30 A - Reduces conduction loss by ~15% vs. comparable 150 V Schottkys at same current and temperature. |
| High avalanche capability | 900 W repetitive avalanche power - Enables use in unclamped inductive circuits without external snubbers in telecom DC/DC modules. |
| Low thermal resistance | Rth(j-c) = 2.5 °C/W - Allows 30 A continuous operation with ≤30 °C junction rise above case when mounted on ≥6 cm² 70 µm Cu. |
| ECOPACK®2 compliance | Halogen-free, RoHS-compliant materials - Meets IPC-1752A Class 2 reporting requirements for industrial and telecom OEMs. |
| Extremely fast switching | No reverse recovery charge (Qrr ≈ 0) - Eliminates switching loss and EMI associated with PN diode tail current in >300 kHz converters. |
Applications
| Telecom DC/DC Brick | Server VRM Output Rectification |
|---|---|

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-30CPH17-M3/45-E3 | TO-220AC package, Rth(j-c) = 2.0 °C/W, VF = 0.82 V @ 125 °C, 30 A | Requires mechanical mounting and heatsink; higher VF increases conduction loss by ~15% | Preferred where legacy through-hole assembly or higher surge margin (IFSM = 300 A) is required. |
| ON Semiconductor MBR30H170CT | TO-220AB dual-die, common-cathode, VF = 0.85 V @ 25 °C, 30 A, no avalanche rating specified | Not rated for repetitive avalanche; larger footprint; unsuitable for unclamped inductive loads | Acceptable only in non-avalanche-critical, lower-frequency (<100 kHz) SMPS with adequate clamping. |
Compared with VS-30CPH17-M3/45-E3 and MBR30H170CT, STPS30170DJF-TR delivers superior thermal integration via PowerFLAT™, lower VF at operating temperature, and guaranteed avalanche ruggedness - critical for high-density, high-reliability telecom and industrial DC/DC designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable PCB copper area for thermal performance?
The datasheet specifies Rth(j-a) reduction versus copper surface area in Figure 8: with 6 cm² of 35 µm copper on FR4, Rth(j-a) drops to ~6.5 °C/W. For 30 A continuous operation, ≥4 cm² is recommended to maintain Tj ≤ 150 °C at 80 °C ambient. Thermal vias under the cathode pad further improve performance but are not mandatory.
Does STPS30170DJF-TR support synchronous rectification?
No - STPS30170DJF-TR is a passive Schottky rectifier, not a synchronous rectifier IC or MOSFET driver. It operates as a unidirectional freewheeling or polarity protection device. Synchronous rectification requires active gate-controlled MOSFETs with timing control circuitry, which this part does not provide or support.
Is the PowerFLAT™ 5x6 package lead-free and RoHS-compliant?
Yes - STPS30170DJF-TR carries ECOPACK®2 certification, confirming full compliance with EU RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and halogen-free material content per IEC 61249-2-21. The solderable terminations use matte tin plating over nickel, qualified for standard reflow profiles including JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 3.
How is avalanche capability tested and rated?
Avalanche energy is measured per IEC 61188-5-2 using unclamped inductive switching (UIS) test: 900 W is the peak power (V × I) delivered during a 10 µs pulse at Tj = 125 °C, with repetitive rating confirmed for ≥10⁴ cycles. This validates robustness against inductive kickback in flyback or boost converters without external clamping components.
