B220-13-F

Overview

The B220-13-F is a single Schottky barrier rectifier manufactured by Diodes Incorporated. It utilizes silicon technology and is housed in an SMA (DO-214AC) surface-mount package. The device supports a maximum average forward rectified current of 2 A and a repetitive peak reverse voltage of 20 V. Key electrical characteristics include a maximum forward voltage of 500 mV, a peak non-repetitive forward surge current of 50 A, and a maximum reverse current of 500 uA. It operates within a temperature range of -65°C to +150°C.

Feature Summary

• Guard ring die construction provides transient protection capabilities.
• Low power loss design ensures high efficiency during operation.
• Surge overload rating supports high peak current handling.
• Totally lead-free and fully RoHS compliant for environmental safety.

Applications

• Free wheeling diode circuits
• Polarity protection applications
• Low voltage high frequency inverters

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific package type against project requirements, as the B220 series includes variants with different mechanical footprints such as SMB or SMA. Confirm that the 20 V reverse voltage rating aligns with the circuit's peak inverse voltage demands. Ensure compliance with AEC-Q101 standards if automotive reliability is required, noting that qualification status may vary by specific suffix or manufacturing lot.

Selection Notes

Select this component for low-voltage DC-DC converters or power supplies requiring efficient rectification. The 2 A current rating suits moderate power applications where low forward voltage drop minimizes heat generation. Compare against higher voltage siblings like B240 or B260 if system voltage exceeds 20 V. Consider the SMA package dimensions for PCB layout constraints relative to larger SMB packages.

Part Context

This part belongs to the B2xx series of surface mount Schottky barrier rectifiers from Diodes Incorporated. These devices are designed for general-purpose rectification in compact electronic designs. The series offers various voltage ratings while maintaining consistent current handling and low forward voltage characteristics across the product line.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other B220 variants from Diodes Incorporated with identical electrical specifications but potentially different packaging options. Cross-brand equivalents must match the 2 A current, 20 V reverse voltage, and SMA footprint constraints precisely.
