Product details

35 ns trr — the switching edge this part exists to deliver

The STTH1506TPI is an ultrafast high-voltage rectifier from STMicroelectronics, built as a pair of diodes in series inside a single TOP-3I through-hole package. That 35 ns trr places it squarely in the ultrafast class for 600 V boost diodes, PFC stages, and output rectification in switch-mode power supplies where the recovery tail of a standard fast diode would cost efficiency or blow the thermal budget. The series connection inside one package simplifies layout for voltage-doubler or center-tapped topologies — two diodes, one placement, one heatsink interface.

3.6 V forward drop at 15 A — plan the heatsink

Forward voltage is 3.6 V maximum at 15 A per diode. That is a conduction loss of 54 W per diode at full rated current, so the TOP-3I insulated tab needs a proper heatsink and thermal interface — the junction limit is 150 °C. The insulated tab is a real advantage here: no insulating washer needed, which cuts thermal resistance and assembly steps. If your design runs the diodes at a fraction of the 15 A rating, Vf drops, but always size the heatsink for the worst-case junction temperature at your operating point.

ST lists the STTH1506TPI as an active product.

Frequently asked questions

What is the reverse recovery time (trr) of STTH1506TPI?

The reverse recovery time is 35 ns, which qualifies it as an ultrafast diode for 600 V boost and PFC applications.

Is STTH1506TPI pin compatible with standard TOP-3 packages?

The STTH1506TPI uses the TOP-3I (insulated) package. The pinout matches standard TOP-3 through-hole footprints, but the insulated tab means the mounting surface is electrically isolated — no mica washer needed. Verify the tab insulation rating against your system's isolation requirements.
