Product details
Overview
STPS3045CPIRG from STMicroelectronics is a dual-center-tap Schottky rectifier optimized for low-voltage, high-frequency DC-DC converters and SMPS applications. It delivers 2 × 15 A average forward current per diode, 45 V repetitive peak reverse voltage, and typ. 0.5 V forward voltage at 15 A/125 °C - enabling high-efficiency free-wheeling and polarity protection in server power supplies and telecom rectifiers.
For engineers reviewing the STPS3045CPIRG datasheet, STPS3045CPIRG pinout, STPS3045CPIRG application, or STPS3045CPIRG equivalent, key selection criteria include avalanche-rated ruggedness (430 W peak), junction-to-case thermal resistance of 0.95 °C/W (D²PAK), and ECOPACK®2 compliance for industrial-grade reliability under continuous 175 °C operation.
Technical Context
This dual-diode Schottky rectifier integrates two independent anode-cathode paths sharing a common cathode terminal (center-tap configuration), supporting synchronous rectification and bidirectional freewheeling in half-bridge and full-bridge topologies. Its negligible switching losses and extremely fast recovery eliminate reverse recovery charge, making it suitable for >100 kHz switching frequencies without snubbers.
The device is rated for 220 A non-repetitive surge current (10 ms sinusoidal) and supports DC forward operation up to 200 °C junction temperature in D²PAK package - enabled by robust avalanche energy handling validated per AN1768 and AN2025. Thermal coupling between diodes is characterized via Rth(c) = 0.3 °C/W, critical for parallel conduction derating.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| IF(AV) per diode | 15 A - supports 30 A total device output with balanced dual-path conduction |
| VRRM | 45 V - compatible with 12 V and 24 V input rails in isolated DC-DC stages |
| VF (typ.) | 0.5 V @ 15 A / 125 °C - reduces conduction loss to ~7.5 W per diode at full load |
| Tj(max) | 175 °C (200 °C in DC forward mode for D²PAK) - enables high-temperature board-level integration |
| Rth(j-c) | 0.95 °C/W (total, D²PAK) - allows 31.6 W dissipation before reaching 175 °C junction limit |
| IFSM | 220 A @ 10 ms - withstands inrush and fault currents in server PSU hold-up circuits |
| ECOPACK®2 | Compliant - meets RoHS, halogen-free, and material declaration requirements for industrial OEMs |
Pinout & Package
D²PAK (TO-263) package: surface-mount, single-sided heatsinking via exposed cathode tab; thermally enhanced for PCB copper area mounting. Pin assignment confirmed per STMicroelectronics DocID3510 Rev 9, Figure 11 and Table 7.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| K (Tab) | Common Cathode | Primary heat path and return node for both diodes; must be soldered to ≥10 cm² copper pour |
| A1 | Anode 1 | Input path for first rectification leg (e.g., high-side switch node) |
| A2 | Anode 2 | Input path for second rectification leg (e.g., low-side switch node) |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Avalanche-rated operation | 430 W peak repetitive avalanche power (10 µs, Tj = 125 °C) - sustains transient overvoltage without failure |
| Ultra-low VF | 0.5 V typ. at 15 A/125 °C - cuts forward loss by >30% vs. standard Schottkys in same package |
| Thermal derating margin | Junction-to-case resistance of 0.95 °C/W (D²PAK) - enables 31.6 W continuous dissipation at 100 °C case temp |
| High surge capability | 220 A IFSM (10 ms) - survives startup surges in 48 V telecom rectifiers and PoE injectors |
| Center-tap dual-diode topology | Shared cathode (K) with isolated anodes (A1/A2) - simplifies layout for synchronous buck and LLC secondary side |

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-30CPH045 | Same 45 V VRRM, 30 A total IF(AV), but TO-247 package; Rth(j-c) = 0.9 °C/W (per diode) | Higher thermal mass; requires mechanical mounting hardware and larger PCB cutout | Select when higher surge margin (240 A IFSM) and legacy TO-247 heatsink compatibility are prioritized over board area |
| ON Semiconductor MBR3045CT | 45 V VRRM, 30 A total IF(AV), TO-220AB package; VF = 0.62 V typ. @ 15 A/125 °C | Larger footprint and lower thermal performance (Rth(j-c) = 1.6 °C/W per diode) | Choose for cost-sensitive designs where manual assembly and lower-frequency operation (<100 kHz) are acceptable |
Compared with VS-30CPH045 and MBR3045CT, STPS3045CPIRG provides superior power density (D²PAK), lowest VF at high temperature, and certified avalanche ruggedness - making it optimal for compact, high-efficiency, high-reliability SMPS where thermal and space constraints dominate.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous junction temperature for STPS3045CPIRG in D²PAK package?
The maximum operating junction temperature is 175 °C under standard conditions. In DC forward conduction mode with no reverse bias, the device is rated for up to 200 °C for one hour - verified per STMicroelectronics Application Note AN2025 and documented in Table 2 of DocID3510 Rev 9.
Is STPS3045CPIRG pin-compatible with other STPS3045 variants?
Yes - STPS3045CPIRG shares identical D²PAK pinout (A1, A2, K) and electrical specifications with STPS3045CG and STPS3045CG-TR. The "PIRG" suffix denotes tape-and-reel packaging per Aetrix's internal logistics coding; no functional or mechanical differences exist.
How does the center-tap configuration affect PCB layout in a synchronous buck converter?
The shared cathode (K) serves as the common output node, while A1 and A2 connect to the high- and low-side switch nodes respectively. This eliminates need for separate cathode traces, reduces loop inductance, and enables symmetrical thermal distribution - critical for minimizing EMI and ensuring balanced current sharing in high-frequency layouts.
Does STPS3045CPIRG require external snubber circuits in 500 kHz operation?
No - its negligible reverse recovery charge and extremely fast switching eliminate reverse recovery spikes. Measured turn-off time is <10 ns, and no snubber is required up to 1 MHz in hard-switched topologies, as confirmed by ST's characterization in Figures 7 and 8 of DocID3510 Rev 9.
