B340CE-13-2477

Overview

The B340CE-13 is a single Schottky barrier rectifier manufactured by Diodes Incorporated, designed for surface mount applications. It features a 40 V repetitive reverse voltage rating and supports a continuous forward current of 3 A. The device utilizes silicon technology and is housed in an SMC (DO-214AB) package. Key electrical characteristics include a maximum forward voltage of 460 mV and a peak forward surge current capability of 80 A. The component operates within a temperature range of -55 °C to +150 °C junction temperature.

Feature Summary

• Schottky barrier construction for low forward voltage drop
• High thermal stability with elevated maximum junction temperature rating
• Surface mount design in compact SMC package

Applications

• DC-DC converters
• Power supply circuits
• Free-wheeling diodes

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix against official manufacturer documentation to confirm exact ordering specifications. Ensure compatibility with standard surface mount assembly processes. Confirm RoHS compliance status through the latest product data sheet before integration into production designs.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 40 V reverse voltage rating and 3 A continuous current capacity are required in an SMC package. Consider the 460 mV forward voltage drop for efficiency calculations. Verify that the 80 A surge current rating meets transient protection requirements for the target circuit application.

Part Context

This part belongs to the B320BE/CE series of Schottky rectifiers from Diodes Incorporated. It shares the SMC package form factor with other variants in the family but differs in voltage and current ratings. The series is engineered for general-purpose rectification in power management applications requiring high reliability.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include B340Q-13-F and B340LB-13-F, provided package and electrical parameter alignment is verified.
