STPS30H60CT

Diode Arrays Overview

The STPS30H60CT is a dual Schottky rectifier from STMicroelectronics, rated for 60 V reverse voltage and 30 A forward current. It features a common cathode configuration with a center tap, housed in a TO-220AB package. Key electrical parameters include a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 60 V, a continuous forward current of 30 A, and a peak non-repetitive forward surge current of 230 A. The device exhibits a low forward voltage drop of 750 mV at 15 A and a low leakage current of 480 μA. It operates within a junction temperature range up to 150 °C and is avalanche rated.

Diode Arrays Feature Summary

• Dual center-tap configuration optimized for high-frequency switch-mode power supplies
• High junction temperature capability for robust thermal performance
• Low leakage current combined with an optimal trade-off between leakage and forward voltage drop
• Avalanche rated for enhanced reliability under transient conditions

Diode Arrays Applications

• Notebook adapters
• LCD adapters
• Desktop switch-mode power supplies (SMPS)

Diode Arrays Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'T' indicates tape-and-reel packaging if reel quantity requirements apply. Confirm the package variant matches the required lead style (e.g., standard vs. narrow) as the base part number spans multiple mechanical options. Ensure the manufacturer source document explicitly lists STPS30H60CT as an active component before finalizing procurement plans.

Diode Arrays Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring a dual Schottky rectifier with a center tap in a through-hole TO-220AB package. It is suitable where high junction temperature tolerance and avalanche ruggedness are critical. Consider the trade-off between its low forward voltage and leakage current characteristics against the specific efficiency requirements of the target power supply topology.

Diode Arrays Part Context

This device belongs to the STPS30H series of dual high Tj power Schottky rectifiers. It shares the 30 A current rating with other variants like the STPS30L60C but differs in voltage rating and specific feature optimizations such as high junction temperature capability. The series is designed for compact, high-efficiency power conversion systems.

Diode Arrays Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same family include STPS30H100C for higher voltage ratings or STPS30L60C for lower forward voltage drop applications, provided the package and pinout compatibility are verified.
