Product details
Overview
TST10H45C from Taiwan Semiconductor is a dual common-cathode trench Schottky rectifier rated for 45 V repetitive peak reverse voltage, 10 A total forward current (5 A per diode), and 110 A surge capability at 8.3 ms; it delivers low forward voltage (0.47 V typ. @ 5 A, 25°C) and operates up to 150°C junction temperature in TO-220AB package for high-efficiency DC/DC conversion.
For engineers reviewing the TST10H45C datasheet, TST10H45C pinout, TST10H45C application, or TST10H45C equivalent, key selection criteria include thermal resistance (RθJC = 3.6 °C/W per diode), high-temperature reverse leakage (15 mA max @ 125°C), dual-die configuration with shared cathode, and RoHS/halogen-free compliance for industrial power supply design.
Technical Context
The TST10H45C integrates two independent Schottky die in a single TO-220AB package with common cathode connection, enabling synchronous rectification or dual-output DC/DC topologies. Its trench-based structure ensures stable VF and IR across temperature, with VF dropping to 0.38 V max @ 5 A, 125°C.
Thermal performance is defined under heatsink mounting (2" × 3" × 0.25" Al-plate), yielding RθJC = 3.6 °C/W and RθJL = 3.8 °C/W per diode - critical for sustained 10 A operation without derating below 100°C case temperature.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 45 V - supports 36 V nominal input rails with 25% safety margin in 48 V systems |
| IF (total) | 10 A - dual-diode rating enables 5 A per channel in split-output converters |
| IFSM (8.3 ms) | 110 A - withstands inrush and transient overloads in SMPS startup |
| VF @ 5 A, 25°C | 0.47 V typ. - reduces conduction loss vs. planar Schottky (typically >0.55 V) |
| RθJC | 3.6 °C/W per diode - allows direct heatsink mounting without thermal interface pads for <10 W dissipation |
| IR @ 45 V, 125°C | 15 mA max - low leakage preserves efficiency in high-temp onboard DC/DC stages |
| Junction temp. range | –55°C to +150°C - qualified for extended industrial ambient conditions |
Pinout & Package
Package: TO-220AB, 3-terminal, insulated backside, matte tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002 solderability and JESD 201 Class 2 whisker test. Mounting torque ≤ 0.56 N·m.

| Pin 2 (Center) | Cathode (Common) | Shared cathode node for both diodes; connected to metal tab (electrically active) |
| Pin 3 (Right) | Anode 2 | Input terminal for second Schottky diode; independent of Pin 1 |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Trench Schottky technology | Enables lower VF and superior high-temperature IR stability vs. planar Schottky counterparts |
| Common-cathode dual-die configuration | Reduces component count in dual-output buck or flyback converters with shared return path |
| RθJC = 3.6 °C/W per diode | Supports 10 A continuous operation with minimal heatsink area when mounted on aluminum plate |
| RoHS & halogen-free (IEC 61249-2-21) | Meets global environmental compliance requirements for industrial and lighting end equipment |

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-10BQ045 | Same VRRM (45 V), same TO-220AB package, but single-diode (10 A total); RθJC = 4.0 °C/W | Requires two devices for dual-output use; higher thermal resistance limits power density | Select when only one rectification path is needed and board space permits discrete placement |
| ON Semiconductor MBR1045CT | Identical dual-common-cathode TO-220AB pinout and 45 V/10 A rating; VF = 0.55 V max @ 5 A, 25°C | Higher conduction loss reduces efficiency in high-duty-cycle applications | Choose for legacy designs where VF tolerance >0.55 V is acceptable and supply chain favors ON Semi |
Compared with VS-10BQ045 and MBR1045CT, the TST10H45C offers the lowest VF (0.47 V typ.), best thermal resistance (3.6 °C/W), and trench architecture for improved high-temperature reliability - making it optimal for space- and efficiency-constrained dual-rail DC/DC converters.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for the TST10H45C?
The TST10H45C has a maximum junction temperature (TJ) of +150°C, verified per absolute maximum ratings in the official datasheet. This rating enables reliable operation in thermally demanding environments such as enclosed LED drivers or high-density server DC/DC modules. Derating begins above 100°C case temperature, and thermal design must respect RθJC = 3.6 °C/W per diode to maintain TJ ≤ 150°C under full 10 A load.
Is the TST10H45C pin-compatible with the MBR1045CT?
Yes, the TST10H45C is pin-compatible with the ON Semiconductor MBR1045CT: both use TO-220AB package with identical pin 1 (Anode 1), pin 2 (Common Cathode), and pin 3 (Anode 2) assignments and mechanical outline. No PCB layout change is required for drop-in replacement, though designers should verify VF and thermal performance impact in final system testing.
Does the TST10H45C meet RoHS and halogen-free requirements?
Yes, the TST10H45C complies with RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and is halogen-free per IEC 61249-2-21. The molding compound and lead finish (matte tin plating) are fully documented in TSC's material declarations, supporting compliance for industrial and lighting products sold in EU, Japan, and North America.
What is the typical forward voltage of the TST10H45C at 5 A and 125°C?
The typical forward voltage of the TST10H45C at 5 A and 125°C is 0.38 V, with a maximum of 0.46 V per diode. This low, temperature-stable VF - enabled by trench Schottky technology - directly improves efficiency in high-ambient-temperature applications like automotive cabin electronics or outdoor LED luminaires where junction heating is unavoidable.
How is thermal resistance measured for the TST10H45C, and what mounting condition applies?
TSC specifies RθJC = 3.6 °C/W per diode for the TST10H45C under standardized mounting: soldered to a 2" × 3" × 0.25" aluminum heatsink plate. This value reflects junction-to-case conduction only and assumes full metal-tab contact with no thermal interface material. For accurate system-level thermal modeling, designers must account for additional RθCA introduced by heatsink fin geometry and airflow.
