What are the key features of STPS1545CT?

  • Dual common-cathode Schottky diode configuration with 7.5 A maximum current and 45 V reverse blocking voltage in one TO-220AB package
  • Low maximum forward voltage of 0.84 V minimizes conduction losses in switching power supply output rectifier and freewheeling diode stages
  • Fast-recovery silicon Schottky construction enables efficient operation in high-frequency DC-DC converters, eliminating reverse-recovery loss

What is STPS1545CT used for?

The STPS1545CT is used as an output rectifier or freewheeling diode in switching power supplies, DC-DC buck and boost converters, and battery charger circuits operating at up to 45 V. The common-cathode dual configuration allows it to implement a center-tap full-wave rectifier or dual-diode ORing circuit with only three external connections on the TO-220AB package. Its low 0.84 V forward voltage reduces heat dissipation and improves efficiency in high-current 5 V and 12 V supply rails.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the key electrical ratings of the STPS1545CT for a power supply output stage?

The STPS1545CT is rated for a maximum average forward current of 7.5 A and a repetitive peak reverse voltage of 45 V, with a maximum forward voltage drop of 0.84 V, making it well suited as an output rectifier or freewheeling diode in 5 V to 24 V switching power supplies.

What diode configuration does the STPS1545CT use and how does it simplify a center-tap rectifier design?

The STPS1545CT contains 2 Schottky diode elements in a common-cathode configuration sharing one cathode pin on the TO-220AB package; this allows designers to build a center-tap full-wave rectifier using only a single component, with each anode connected to one winding end of a center-tapped transformer.

How does the STPS1545CT perform as a freewheeling diode in a buck converter compared to a standard PN rectifier?

As a Schottky device, the STPS1545CT has no minority carrier storage and therefore near-zero reverse-recovery charge, which eliminates the switching loss spike that occurs with PN-junction freewheeling diodes at high frequencies; this reduces EMI and improves converter efficiency, particularly at switching frequencies above 100 kHz.

What package does the STPS1545CT use and what are its thermal advantages for a high-current application?

The STPS1545CT uses a TO-220AB through-hole package with an exposed metal tab that can be bolted to a heatsink; this allows the 7.5 A rated device to dissipate heat efficiently in a compact 3-pin footprint, keeping junction temperature within safe limits in continuous-conduction power conversion circuits.
