The STPS1545G is a 15 A average, 45 V reverse-rated Schottky rectifier from STMicroelectronics in a D2PAK (TO-263) surface-mount package. It's built for medium-current, fast-switching roles like output rectification in switch-mode supplies, freewheeling diodes across inductive loads, and OR-ing diodes in redundant power systems. The Schottky technology gives you a low forward drop — 840 mV at 30 A — which keeps conduction losses down compared to a standard PN-junction diode at similar current.
Obsolete — sourcing this part today
STMicroelectronics lists the STPS1545G as Obsolete. If your design is still in development or you're planning a long production run, a drop-in alternative is worth evaluating now rather than chasing diminishing stock.
Drop-in alternative — what to look for
The base part number STPS1545 (without the 'G' suffix) is the same die in a different package option — through-hole versus surface-mount. The 'G' denotes the D2PAK / TO-263 surface-mount variant. If your board is laid out for the D2PAK footprint, you need a part in that same package. A direct pin-compatible replacement would be another 15 A, 45 V Schottky in D2PAK from a major supplier — same tab-anode-cathode pinout, same footprint. ST's own STPS1545G is the one you're searching; for a second-source candidate, look at parts like the MBR1545CT in D2PAK from ON Semiconductor or Vishay, but verify the pinout and thermal pad connection match your layout.
