Product details
Overview
TSUP15M45SH from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 15A, 45V AEC-Q101-qualified trench Schottky rectifier in TO-277A (SMPC4.6U) package, featuring 0.51V forward voltage at 15A/25°C, 290A surge rating, and wettable flank terminals for automated optical inspection. It serves as a primary output rectifier in automotive DC/DC converters.
For engineers reviewing the TSUP15M45SH datasheet, TSUP15M45SH pinout, TSUP15M45SH application, or TSUP15M45SH equivalent, key selection criteria include junction-to-lead thermal resistance (4°C/W), moisture sensitivity level 1 compliance, JESD201 Class 2 whisker resistance, RoHS/halogen-free status, and AEC-Q101 qualification for under-hood power conversion.
Technical Context
This single-die Schottky rectifier uses patented trench architecture to reduce forward voltage and leakage current while maintaining high surge robustness. Its 45V VRRM and 175°C maximum junction temperature support operation in high-temperature automotive environments.
The device's 1803pF junction capacitance at 1MHz/4V and low RθJL of 4°C/W enable efficient high-frequency switching in SMPS topologies. Polarity is marked by cathode band; terminals are matte tin-plated per J-STD-002.

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-15EWH04-M3 | Same 45V VRRM, 15A IF, but TO-277A package lacks wettable flank; VF = 0.55V (max) at 15A/25°C | No AOI-compatible lead geometry; requires X-ray inspection for solder joint quality assurance | Select when AEC-Q101 not required and optical inspection capability is unavailable |
| ON Semiconductor MUR1540CT | Higher 400V VRRM, but ultrafast recovery diode (not Schottky); VF = 0.95V (typ) at 15A/25°C; TO-220AC package | Higher conduction loss increases thermal load; through-hole mounting incompatible with high-density SMT layouts | Select only for legacy designs requiring higher reverse voltage margin and accepting 2.5× higher conduction loss |
Compared with VS-15EWH04-M3 and MUR1540CT, TSUP15M45SH delivers lower forward voltage, AEC-Q101 qualification, wettable flank leads for automated inspection, and superior thermal performance in surface-mount automotive and industrial power supplies.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for TSUP15M45SH?
The TSUP15M45SH has a maximum junction temperature (TJ) rating of +175°C, verified per AEC-Q101 stress testing. This allows operation in under-hood automotive environments where ambient temperatures reach 125°C while maintaining sufficient thermal margin. The device's RθJL of 4°C/W ensures effective heat transfer to the PCB, making TSUP15M45SH suitable for thermally constrained layouts without active cooling.
Is TSUP15M45SH qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, TSUP15M45SH is AEC-Q101 qualified, meaning it has passed rigorous stress tests including HTGB, HTRB, TST, and mechanical shock per the AEC-Q101 standard. Its construction-including JESD201 Class 2 whisker resistance, MSL Level 1 handling, and halogen-free molding compound-meets Tier 1 automotive supplier requirements. TSUP15M45SH is deployed in on-board DC/DC converters and ADAS power modules where reliability over 15 years is mandatory.
What does the "SH" suffix indicate in TSUP15M45SH?
The "SH" suffix in TSUP15M45SH denotes the TO-277A (SMPC4.6U) package variant with wettable flank leads and matte tin plating compliant with J-STD-002. This distinguishes it from non-wettable variants (e.g., TSUP15M45S) and confirms its suitability for automated optical inspection in high-volume SMT production. The marking code "15M45" appears on the device body per ordering information.
How does the forward voltage of TSUP15M45SH compare at elevated temperature?
At 15A and 125°C junction temperature, TSUP15M45SH exhibits a typical forward voltage of 0.44V and a maximum of 0.54V-significantly lower than silicon diodes and stable across temperature. This positive temperature coefficient improves current sharing in parallel configurations and reduces thermal runaway risk. The 0.44V value at 125°C enables consistent efficiency in automotive applications where junction temperatures routinely exceed 100°C.
What is the surge current capability of TSUP15M45SH and how is it tested?
TSUP15M45SH supports a non-repetitive peak forward surge current (IFSM) of 290A for an 8.3ms half-sine wave and 440A for a 1.0ms pulse, per absolute maximum ratings. These values are validated using standardized surge testing per JESD201 and JEDEC standards. The robust surge rating makes TSUP15M45SH suitable for handling inrush currents in SMPS outputs and transient events in automotive 12V/48V systems without degradation.
