B240AF-13-2477

Overview

The B240AF-13-2477 is a Schottky rectifier manufactured by Diodes Incorporated, belonging to the B360AF series. It features a single diode configuration in an SMAF (DO-214AC) surface-mount package. Key electrical parameters include a maximum repetitive reverse voltage of 60 V and an average forward rectified current of 3 A. The device exhibits a maximum forward voltage of 650 mV at 3 A and a reverse leakage current of 200 µA at 60 V. It operates within a junction temperature range of -55°C to +150°C.

Feature Summary

• Utilizes silicon Schottky technology for fast recovery characteristics.
• Incorporates a glass-passivated chip junction for enhanced reliability.
• Designed with built-in strain relief for mechanical stability.

Applications

• General-purpose rectification in surface-mount power supplies
• Protection against polarity reversal in DC circuits
• Freewheeling diodes in low-voltage high-current applications

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix '-2477' against the manufacturer's official documentation to confirm packaging or tape-and-reel specifications. Ensure the component status is active, as related variants may be obsolete. Cross-reference the DO-214AC footprint dimensions with your PCB design library to guarantee accurate placement and soldering compatibility during assembly.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 60 V rating and 3 A continuous current capacity are required in a compact SMAF package. Compare the 650 mV forward voltage drop against system efficiency requirements. Consider the -55°C to +150°C operating range for environmental suitability. Evaluate alternative packages if higher current handling or different thermal dissipation profiles are needed for the specific application constraints.

Part Context

This part belongs to the B360AF series of Schottky rectifiers from Diodes Incorporated. It shares the SMAF (DO-214AC) surface-mount form factor with other devices in the lineup, offering a compact solution for space-constrained designs. The series provides various voltage ratings while maintaining consistent current handling capabilities suitable for modern electronic equipment.

Replacement Considerations

Diodes Incorporated recommends the B360AF-13 as a substitute. Verify pinout compatibility and electrical parameter equivalence before implementation.
