B340CE-13

Overview

The B340CE-13 is a 3.0A Schottky barrier rectifier manufactured by Diodes Incorporated, housed in an SMC (DO-214AB) surface-mount package. It features a peak repetitive reverse voltage of 40V and a maximum forward voltage drop of 0.5V at 3A. The device exhibits low reverse leakage current of 0.2mA at +25°C and supports non-repetitive peak forward surge currents up to 80A. Operating temperatures range from -55°C to +150°C.

Feature Summary

• Guard ring die construction provides transient protection for enhanced reliability.
• Low forward voltage drop reduces power loss and improves system efficiency.
• Stable high-temperature reverse leakage characteristics prevent thermal runaway.
• Lead-free finish with RoHS compliance and halogen/antimony-free composition.

Applications

• Boost diode circuits
• Blocking diode applications
• Recirculating diode configurations

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific SMC package designation when sourcing replacements, as the BE series utilizes SMB packages. Confirm that the CE suffix corresponds to the larger SMC footprint required for your board layout. Ensure compatibility with automated assembly processes given the tape and reel packaging format.

Selection Notes

Select this component for general rectification tasks requiring low forward voltage and high-temperature stability. The SMC package offers lower thermal resistance compared to smaller footprints, making it suitable for higher current densities. Verify that the 40V rating aligns with your circuit's peak inverse voltage requirements.

Part Context

This part belongs to the B320CE-B345CE series of 3.0A Schottky barrier rectifiers. It shares electrical characteristics with the B340BE-13 but differs in physical packaging, utilizing the SMC form factor instead of SMB. The series is designed for efficient power conversion in various electronic systems.
