Schottky Rectifier, 2 x 7.5 A

15CTQ...PbF Series

Vishay High Power Products

FEATURES

• Center tap TO-220 package

• Low forward voltage drop

• High frequency operation

• High purity, high temperature epoxy encapsulation for

enhanced mechanical strength and moisture resistance

• Guard ring for enhanced ruggedness and long term

reliability

• Lead (Pb)-free (“PbF” suffix)

• Designed and qualified for industrial level

DESCRIPTION

The 15CTQ...PbF center tap Schottky rectifier series has

been optimized for very low forward voltage drop, with

moderate leakage. The proprietary barrier technology allows

for reliable operation up to 150 °C junction temperature.

Typical applications are in switching power supplies,

converters, freewheeling diodes, and reverse battery

protection.
