Product details
Overview
VS-16CTQ100-1HM3 from Vishay Semiconductors is a high-reliability, AEC-Q101-qualified dual-anode Schottky rectifier in TO-262AA package, delivering 2 × 8 A average forward current per leg at TC = 148 °C, with 100 V reverse voltage rating, 0.58 V forward voltage at 8 A/125 °C, and 7.0 mA reverse leakage at 125 °C - optimized for automotive DC/DC converters and industrial power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the VS-16CTQ100-1HM3 datasheet, VS-16CTQ100-1HM3 pinout, VS-16CTQ100-1HM3 application, or VS-16CTQ100-1HM3 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 175 °C junction temperature capability, center-tap common-cathode configuration, low VF slope resistance (11.07 mΩ), MSL Level 1 moisture sensitivity, and halogen-free RoHS-compliant M3 termination.
Technical Context
This device integrates two independent Schottky die in a single common-cathode TO-262AA package, enabling synchronous rectification or dual-output freewheeling without external cathode tying. Its proprietary barrier technology ensures stable operation up to TJ = 175 °C while maintaining low IRM (7.0 mA @ 125 °C) and high dV/dt immunity (10,000 V/μs).
The rectifier supports high-frequency switching with 500 pF junction capacitance per leg at VR = 5 V and 8.0 nH typical series inductance, and features guard ring protection for ruggedness against repetitive avalanche stress (EAS = 7.5 mJ per leg, IAR = 0.50 A).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VR | 100 V maximum DC reverse voltage - defines safe blocking capability in 48 V–72 V battery systems and industrial SMPS inputs. |
| IF(AV) | 16 A total (2 × 8 A per leg) - enables high-current dual-rail output without paralleling discrete diodes. |
| VF @ 8 A / 125 °C | 0.58 V - reduces conduction loss by ~30 % vs. standard silicon rectifiers, lowering thermal load in compact heatsinks. |
| TJ max. | 175 °C - allows operation in under-hood automotive environments and sealed industrial enclosures without derating. |
| RthJC (per package) | 1.63 °C/W - supports >10 W dissipation with modest heatsinking, critical for space-constrained converter designs. |
| EAS | 7.5 mJ per leg - withstands unclamped inductive switching events in motor drive freewheel paths without failure. |
| IRM @ 125 °C | 7.0 mA - minimizes standby power loss in reverse-battery protection circuits operating at elevated ambient temperatures. |
Pinout & Package
Package: TO-262AA (3-pin, straight lead, non-isolated tab). Thermal pad on backside requires direct mounting to heatsink. Lead finish: matte tin, Pb-free, halogen-free (M3).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Anode (Leg A) | Input terminal for first Schottky die; connects to primary-side switch node in half-bridge or flyback secondary. |
| 2 | Common Cathode | Shared cathode connection for both dies; must be routed to lowest-impedance ground or output return path. |
| 3 | Anode (Leg B) | Input terminal for second Schottky die; enables dual-output or interleaved synchronous rectification. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Validated for automotive powertrain and chassis applications including engine control modules and ADAS power supplies. |
| Guard ring structure | Prevents edge breakdown during transient overvoltage, extending lifetime in noisy industrial bus environments. |
| MSL Level 1 (260 °C peak) | Enables standard SMT reflow without pre-baking, reducing manufacturing complexity and cost. |
| Low rt = 11.07 mΩ | Minimizes I²R losses at high load currents, improving efficiency in 500 kHz+ DC/DC converters. |
| High dV/dt = 10,000 V/μs | Resists false turn-on during fast-switching SiC/GaN gate driver transitions, ensuring robust system timing. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Schottky rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STPS16S100CGY-TR | TO-220AC package, 16 A total, 100 V, VF = 0.75 V @ 8 A/125 °C, no AEC-Q101 qualification | Lacks automotive qualification and higher VF increases conduction loss by ~290 mW per leg at 8 A | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs automotive compliance and thermal performance. |
| ON Semiconductor NTS4101PT1G | Single-die 100 V Schottky in SOD-123FL, IF(AV) = 1 A, not center-tap configured | Cannot replace dual-leg topology; requires two devices plus external cathode tie, increasing layout area and parasitic inductance | Use only for low-current auxiliary rails where space constraints prohibit TO-262AA mounting. |
Compared with STPS16S100CGY-TR and NTS4101PT1G, the VS-16CTQ100-1HM3 uniquely combines AEC-Q101 qualification, true dual-leg center-tap integration, and 175 °C operation - making it the only option for thermally demanding, safety-critical automotive and industrial dual-rail power conversion.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for VS-16CTQ100-1HM3?
The VS-16CTQ100-1HM3 has a maximum junction temperature (TJ max.) of +175 °C, verified per AEC-Q101 stress testing. This rating enables continuous operation in under-hood automotive environments and sealed industrial enclosures without thermal derating. The device maintains specified VF and IRM performance up to this limit, with thermal resistance RthJC (per package) of 1.63 °C/W supporting efficient heat transfer to the heatsink.
Does VS-16CTQ100-1HM3 support center-tap transformer configurations?
Yes, the VS-16CTQ100-1HM3 is explicitly designed for center-tap transformer topologies. Its common-cathode configuration (Pin 2) and dual-anode terminals (Pins 1 and 3) allow direct connection to the two secondary windings of a center-tapped transformer, enabling full-wave rectification without external cathode wiring. This eliminates interconnect inductance and improves efficiency in high-frequency DC/DC converters.
Is VS-16CTQ100-1HM3 qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, the VS-16CTQ100-1HM3 is AEC-Q101 qualified and meets JESD201 Class 1 whisker test requirements. It is rated for automotive powertrain and chassis applications, including engine control units, ADAS power supplies, and 48 V mild-hybrid DC/DC converters. Its 175 °C TJ rating, MSL Level 1 reflow compatibility, and guard ring ruggedness fulfill stringent automotive reliability standards.
What is the forward voltage drop of VS-16CTQ100-1HM3 at 8 A and 125 °C?
The forward voltage drop (VF) of VS-16CTQ100-1HM3 is 0.58 V per leg at 8 A and TJ = 125 °C, as measured per the manufacturer's electrical specifications. This low VF value contributes to reduced conduction losses and improved thermal performance in high-current applications such as automotive DC/DC converters and industrial motor drive freewheeling circuits.
What packaging options are available for VS-16CTQ100-1HM3?
The VS-16CTQ100-1HM3 is supplied in antistatic plastic tubes, with 50 units per tube and a minimum order quantity of 1000 units. Unlike the D2PAK variant (VS-16CTQ100SHM3), the -1HM3 suffix denotes the TO-262AA package and is not offered in tape-and-reel format. This tube packaging supports manual or semi-automated assembly processes common in low-to-medium volume automotive and industrial production.
