Product details
Overview
STPS80170CWLY from STMicroelectronics is a dual common-cathode Schottky rectifier in TO-247 package, rated 170 V reverse voltage and 40 A average forward current per diode, with typical forward voltage drop of 0.68 V at 125 °C and 40 A. It delivers low thermal resistance (0.7 °C/W per diode), high-frequency switching capability, and avalanche-rated operation for telecom and industrial SMPS.
For engineers reviewing the STPS80170CWLY datasheet, STPS80170CWLY pinout, STPS80170CWLY application, or STPS80170CWLY equivalent, key selection criteria include junction temperature rating (175 °C), dual-diode thermal coupling behavior, leakage-current trade-off at elevated Tj, and TO-247 mechanical mounting constraints for heatsink interface.
Technical Context
This device integrates two independent Schottky diodes sharing a common cathode terminal, enabling synchronous or interleaved conduction paths in dual-phase DC/DC topologies. Its low VF and high IF(AV) support high-efficiency rectification in continuous conduction mode (CCM) converters operating up to several hundred kHz.
The TO-247 package provides low Rth(j–c) = 0.7 °C/W per diode and total Rth(j–c) = 0.5 °C/W when both diodes operate simultaneously, with coupling resistance Rth(c) = 0.3 °C/W. Avalanche energy rating (2750 W at 10 µs, Tj = 125 °C) supports transient overvoltage robustness without external snubbers.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 170 V - Maximum repetitive reverse blocking voltage per diode; defines safe operating range in boost/flyback output stages. |
| IF(AV) per diode | 40 A at Tc = 150 °C - Continuous DC current handling per diode under heatsink-controlled conditions. |
| VF(typ) | 0.68 V at 40 A, 125 °C - Typical forward drop determining conduction loss (P ≈ 0.62 × IF(AV) + 0.003 × IF²(RMS)). |
| Rth(j–c) per diode | 0.7 °C/W - Junction-to-case thermal resistance; enables accurate thermal modeling when mounted on heatsink. |
| IR(max) | 80 mA at 125 °C, VR = VRRM - Maximum reverse leakage per diode; impacts standby power in offline PSUs. |
| Tj(max) | +175 °C - Maximum junction temperature; allows operation in high-ambient industrial environments with derated current. |
| PARM | 2750 W at tp = 10 µs, Tj = 125 °C - Repetitive avalanche power rating; supports unclamped inductive switching stress. |
Pinout & Package
TO-247 package with isolated metal tab (heat-sink plane), three leads: two anodes (A1, A2) and one common cathode (K). Mounting torque: 0.8 N·m recommended (max 1.0 N·m). Epoxy meets UL94 V0.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A1 | Anode 1 | Input terminal for first Schottky diode; connects to primary-side switch node in dual-phase LLC or interleaved buck. |
| A2 | Anode 2 | Input terminal for second Schottky diode; enables independent control or phase-shifted conduction. |
| K | Common cathode | Shared output node; routes combined forward current to output capacitor/bus; requires low-inductance layout. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| ECOPACK®2 compliance | Lead-free, halogen-free packaging meeting RoHS and REACH requirements without compromising thermal performance. |
| High Tj capability | 175 °C maximum junction temperature enables operation in sealed enclosures or high-ambient telecom rectifiers. |
| Low Rth(j–c) | 0.7 °C/W per diode reduces thermal bottleneck in high-power density designs; improves reliability margin vs. TO-220 alternatives. |
| Avalanche-rated | 2750 W peak avalanche power (10 µs) eliminates need for external clamping in flyback snubberless designs. |
| Low leakage trade-off | 80 mA max IR at 125 °C balances efficiency and thermal stability-lower than comparable 200 V Schottkys. |
Applications
| Telecom Rectification | Industrial SMPS Output Stage |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual common-cathode Schottky rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vishay VS-80CPH017 | Same VRRM (170 V), higher IF(AV) = 45 A/diode, but Rth(j–c) = 0.9 °C/W and no avalanche rating. | Lacks PARM specification; unsuitable for unclamped inductive switching or telecom surge immunity requirements. | Prefer STPS80170CWLY where avalanche robustness or lower thermal resistance is required. |
| ON Semiconductor MBR80170CT | Identical TO-247 package and pinout, but VF = 0.82 V (typ) at 40 A/125 °C and IR = 120 mA at 125 °C. | Higher conduction loss and leakage reduce efficiency in high-temperature, high-reliability telecom deployments. | Acceptable for cost-sensitive industrial SMPS where 175 °C Tj and low IR are non-critical. |
Compared with VS-80CPH017 and MBR80170CT, STPS80170CWLY offers superior thermal performance (0.7 °C/W), verified avalanche capability (2750 W), and tighter leakage control (80 mA max), making it optimal for mission-critical telecom and high-density server PSUs.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable case temperature for continuous operation?
The datasheet specifies IF(AV) = 40 A per diode at Tc = 150 °C. Exceeding this temperature requires current derating per Figure 2. At Tc = 160 °C, IF(AV) drops to ~32 A per diode. Thermal design must maintain case temperature ≤150 °C under worst-case ambient and airflow conditions.
Can STPS80170CWLY be used in single-diode configuration?
Yes. Either anode (A1 or A2) may be left unconnected while the other operates with the common cathode (K). The unused anode must be electrically isolated and thermally managed-its junction remains active and contributes to overall thermal resistance even when not conducting.
Is the TO-247 package electrically insulated?
No. The metal tab (heat-sink plane) is internally connected to the cathode (K) terminal. Electrical isolation from heatsink requires insulating washer and bushing. Mounting torque must stay within 0.8–1.0 N·m to avoid die cracking or solder joint fatigue.
How does thermal coupling affect simultaneous dual-diode operation?
When both diodes conduct, junction temperature rise is calculated as ΔTj(A1) = P₁ × 0.7 + P₂ × 0.3, where P₁ and P₂ are individual diode powers. This coupling effect increases effective thermal resistance versus single-diode use, requiring derating or enhanced heatsinking for full 80 A total output current.
