Automotive Schottky — 45 V, 15 A, AEC-Q101
It is rated for a maximum DC reverse voltage of 45 V and an average forward current of 15 A, with a forward voltage drop of 570 mV at the full 15 A rating.
STMicroelectronics lists the STPS1545DY as obsolete.
Parametric profile for the BOM
The 200 µA reverse leakage at 45 V is specified at 25°C; leakage rises with junction temperature, so thermal margin matters in high-temperature automotive environments. The fast recovery characteristic (≤500 ns, >200 mA) is typical for a Schottky and suits switching power supply output rectification and freewheeling diode roles.
Package and qualification
Housed in a TO-220AC through-hole package (TO-220-2), the STPS1545DY is suitable for board-level mounting with a heatsink. The AEC-Q101 qualification confirms it meets automotive stress and reliability requirements, including extended temperature cycling and high-temperature reverse bias testing.
