MBR1030FCT-BP

Diode Arrays Overview

The MBR1030FCT-BP is a single Schottky barrier rectifier manufactured by Micro Commercial Components. It features an average forward current of 10 A and a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 30 V. The device utilizes silicon technology in an ITO-220AB (TO-220AB) through-hole package. Key electrical characteristics include a maximum instantaneous forward voltage of 0.75 V at 5 A, a typical thermal resistance of 4°C/W from junction to case, and a peak forward surge current capability of 120 A for an 8.3 ms half-sine wave pulse.

Diode Arrays Feature Summary

• High efficiency operation with low power loss due to the Schottky barrier structure
• Low forward voltage drop combined with high current capability
• High surge capacity for handling transient current loads
• Lead-free finish compliant with RoHS directives

Diode Arrays Applications

• DC-to-DC converters
• Power supply circuits
• Free-wheeling diodes in inductive load protection

Diode Arrays Procurement Notes

Verify the component authenticity by checking the manufacturer's marking against official datasheet specifications. Ensure the ordering suffix matches the required compliance level, as the standard BP designation indicates lead-free and RoHS compliance while HF variants are available upon request. Confirm package dimensions and pinout alignment with the ITO-220AB mechanical drawing before integration into the assembly process.

Diode Arrays Selection Notes

Select this component when a 30 V blocking voltage and 10 A continuous current rating are required in a through-hole configuration. The low forward voltage makes it suitable for applications prioritizing efficiency over ultra-low leakage. Consider the thermal resistance and derating curves if operating near the maximum junction temperature limit of 150°C.

Diode Arrays Part Context

This part belongs to the MBR1020FCT through MBR10100FCT series, which shares identical physical packaging and general performance traits but varies in voltage ratings. The series covers voltages from 20 V to 100 V, allowing designers to maintain consistent footprint and thermal management strategies across different voltage requirements within the same product family.

Diode Arrays Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other 30 V, 10 A Schottky rectifiers in the TO-220AB package. Verify that substitute parts meet or exceed the 120 A surge current requirement and match the 0.75 V forward voltage specification to ensure circuit compatibility.
