B340-13-F-2477

Overview

The B340-13-F is a Schottky barrier rectifier manufactured by Diodes Incorporated. It features a single diode configuration in a DO-214AA (SMA) surface-mount package. Key electrical parameters include a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 40 V and an average forward rectified current of 3 A. The device exhibits a maximum forward voltage of 500 mV at 3 A and a peak non-repetitive forward surge current rating of 100 A. Operating temperatures range from -55 °C to +125 °C junction temperature.

Feature Summary

• Guard ring die construction provides protection against transient voltage events.
• Low forward voltage drop ensures high efficiency and reduced power loss during operation.
• Designed for ideal suitability with automated assembly processes.

Applications

• Free-wheeling applications in low voltage circuits
• Polarity protection for electronic systems
• Use in low voltage, high frequency inverters

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix designation against official manufacturer documentation to confirm exact packaging or variant specifications. Ensure compliance with RoHS directives and check for AEC-Q101 automotive qualification requirements if applicable to the target application environment.

Selection Notes

Select this component for designs requiring a 40 V blocking capability with a 3 A continuous current rating. The SMA package is suitable for space-constrained surface-mount layouts. Consider the 100 A surge rating for circuits subject to inductive load switching or startup transients.

Part Context

This part belongs to the B340 series of Schottky rectifiers from Diodes Incorporated. The series offers various voltage ratings within the 40 V to 60 V range while maintaining consistent current handling capabilities across different package options such as SMA and SMB.

Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include B340A-13-F and B340B-13-F. Verify pinout compatibility and thermal performance characteristics before substitution.
