Product details
Overview
TSF30U45C from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 30A, 45V low-forward-voltage trench Schottky rectifier in ITO-220AB package, featuring dual-die configuration, 0.45 V typical VF at 15 A/25°C, 250 A IFSM surge rating, and 150°C maximum junction temperature-used in high-efficiency DC/DC converters and SMPS secondary-side rectification.
For engineers reviewing the TSF30U45C datasheet, TSF30U45C pinout, TSF30U45C application, or TSF30U45C equivalent, key selection considerations include forward voltage at elevated temperature, thermal resistance (RθJC = 4°C/W), isolation voltage (1500 VAC), and RoHS/halogen-free compliance for industrial power designs.
Technical Context
The TSF30U45C employs patented trench Schottky technology to achieve stable VF performance across -55°C to +150°C junction range, with VF dropping to 0.415 V (typ) at 15 A/125°C-enabling reduced conduction loss in thermally constrained environments. Its dual-die structure supports parallel current paths while maintaining single-device footprint and thermal interface.
With 10,000 V/µs dv/dt rating and 1500 VAC isolation between terminals and heatsink, the TSF30U45C meets stringent noise immunity and safety requirements in isolated DC/DC topologies. Reverse leakage remains ≤100 mA at 125°C, ensuring reliable blocking under high-temperature transient conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 45 V - Maximum repetitive reverse voltage; defines safe operating limit in flyback or forward converter secondary circuits |
| IF | 30 A - Continuous average forward current at case temperature ≤75°C; determines heatsink sizing in 24/48 V output rails |
| IFSM | 250 A - Non-repetitive surge current (8.3 ms half-sine); withstands inrush and short-circuit transients without failure |
| VF (15 A, 25°C) | 0.450 V (typ) - Low conduction loss enables >95% efficiency in 12 V–48 V output stages at full load |

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 IF, but TO-247AC package; RθJC = 3.5°C/W; VF = 0.49 V (max) @ 15 A/25°C | Higher thermal performance but larger footprint; requires insulating washer due to non-isolated tab | Preferred where board space permits and lower thermal resistance is critical; not drop-in due to different pinout and isolation scheme |
| ON Semiconductor SB340 | Lower rating: 40 V VRRM, 3 A IF; DO-201AD package; VF = 0.55 V (max) @ 3 A | Not suitable for 30 A systems; limited to low-power adapters or auxiliary rails | Only viable for prototyping or low-current evaluation-cannot replace TSF30U45C in production 30 A designs |
Compared with VS-30CPH045 and SB340, the TSF30U45C uniquely combines ITO-220AB's isolated tab, 30 A rating, and sub-0.45 V VF at 125°C-making it optimal for space-constrained, high-temperature industrial DC/DC converters where electrical isolation and thermal simplicity are prioritized over marginal RθJC improvement.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for the TSF30U45C?
The TSF30U45C has a maximum junction temperature (TJ) of +150°C, verified per absolute maximum ratings table. This allows sustained operation in enclosed industrial environments where case temperatures reach 100°C, provided thermal design maintains TJ ≤150°C. The TSF30U45C's VF stability up to this limit ensures predictable conduction loss across its full operating range.
Does the TSF30U45C require an insulating pad when mounted to a heatsink?
No-the TSF30U45C uses an ITO-220AB package with electrically isolated heatsink tab rated for 1500 VAC isolation. No insulating pad or washer is needed between the tab and metal heatsink, unlike standard TO-220AB or TO-247 devices. This simplifies thermal assembly and improves heat transfer efficiency in the TSF30U45C implementation.
What is the typical forward voltage of the TSF30U45C at 15 A and 125°C?
The TSF30U45C exhibits a typical forward voltage (VF) of 0.415 V at 15 A and 125°C, per electrical specifications table. This value is confirmed under pulse test conditions (PW = 0.3 ms) and reflects the device's superior high-temperature stability-critical for maintaining efficiency in thermally stressed DC/DC converters where the TSF30U45C operates near its thermal limits.
Is the TSF30U45C halogen-free and RoHS compliant?
Yes-the TSF30U45C is certified halogen-free per IEC 61249-2-21 and fully compliant with EU RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU. The molding compound contains no brominated flame retardants or chlorine-based additives, and lead content is below 1000 ppm. This compliance is documented in Taiwan Semiconductor's material declarations and applies to all production lots of the TSF30U45C.
What does the marking code "TSF30U45C" indicate on the device body?
The marking code "TSF30U45C" on the TSF30U45C device body corresponds exactly to the orderable part number and confirms the device is the 30 A / 45 V trench Schottky rectifier in ITO-220AB package. Additional markings include date code (YWW), factory code (F), and green compound indicator (G)-all consistent with Taiwan Semiconductor's standard ITO-220AB labeling for the TSF30U45C.
