45 V, 30 A Schottky — common cathode in TOP-3I
The STPS6045CPIRG is a dual-Schottky rectifier from STMicroelectronics, configured as a 1 Pair Common Cathode in the TOP-3 Insulated (TOP-3I) through-hole package.
STMicroelectronics lists the STPS6045CPIRG as obsolete.
Parametric fit for high-current rectification
The common-cathode pair is a natural fit for center-tap full-wave rectifiers and half-bridge topologies in switch-mode power supplies and DC-DC converters. The 45 V reverse voltage covers 24 V and 36 V rails with margin; the 30 A per-diode rating supports output stages up to about 60 A total when the two diodes are paralleled. Reverse leakage is 500 µA at 45 V — a figure that rises with junction temperature, so thermal management of the TOP-3I tab is critical above 100°C.
