30 A per leg, common-cathode, PowerSO-20 — what this Schottky pair delivers
The STPS60L30CKY-TR: Each diode is rated for 30 A of continuous forward current (Io) with a maximum reverse voltage of 30 V, and the forward voltage drop is specified at 490 mV maximum at 30 A — a low Vf that keeps conduction losses manageable in high-current power paths.
Forward drop and leakage — the thermal budget drivers
At 30 A per diode, the 490 mV Vf maximum sets the conduction loss floor. The reverse leakage is 2 mA at 30 V (Vr). The common-cathode arrangement means the two anodes are independent while the cathodes share a common node — a topology used in OR-ing diodes, half-bridge rectifiers, and center-tap secondary windings where the cathodes tie to the same output rail.
