B330CE-13

Overview

The B330CE-13 is a surface mount Schottky barrier rectifier manufactured by Diodes Incorporated. It features a single diode configuration in an SMC (DO-214AB) package. The device supports a maximum repetitive reverse voltage of 30 V and an average forward rectified current of 5 A. Key electrical characteristics include a maximum forward voltage of 550 mV at 5 A, a peak forward surge current rating of 100 A, and a maximum reverse leakage current of 200 µA at 30 V. It operates within a junction temperature range of -55 °C to +150 °C and holds AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive reliability.

Feature Summary

• Schottky barrier technology ensures low forward voltage drop and high switching efficiency.
• Plastic encapsulation utilizes the SMC surface mount package for automated assembly compatibility.
• Qualified under AEC-Q101 standards for robust performance in automotive environments.

Applications

• Automotive power supply circuits
• DC-DC converter output rectification
• Free-wheeling diode applications in inductive loads

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's official nomenclature guide to ensure correct packaging and tape-and-reel specifications. Confirm that the requested quantity aligns with standard factory pack sizes to avoid partial reel handling issues. Cross-reference the date code and lot traceability requirements with your quality management system before finalizing the purchase order.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 30 V blocking voltage and 5 A continuous current capacity are required in a compact surface mount footprint. The SMC package offers higher current handling than smaller SMA or SMB cases. Ensure the application thermal design accommodates the 150 °C junction limit and that the low forward voltage characteristic provides sufficient efficiency gains over standard PN junction rectifiers.

Part Context

This part belongs to the B3xxCE series of Schottky rectifiers from Diodes Incorporated, designed specifically for automotive and industrial applications requiring high reliability. The CE suffix indicates the SMC surface mount package variant. This series complements other Diodes Incorporated power management solutions by providing efficient rectification for low-voltage, high-current DC power distribution networks.

Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-compatible substitutes may include the B330BE-13 (SMB package) or B330AE-13 (SMA package), though physical dimensions differ. Verify that alternative packages meet the PCB land pattern constraints and that their current ratings satisfy the circuit requirements without derating.
