MBR20100CTH-BP

Diode Arrays Overview

The MBR20100CTH-BP is a 20 Amp Schottky Barrier Rectifier with a 100 Volt peak repetitive reverse voltage rating. It utilizes a dual common cathode configuration housed in a TO-220AB package. The device features an average rectified forward current of 10 Amperes per diode and supports a non-repetitive peak surge current of 200 Amperes. Electrical characteristics include a maximum forward voltage of 0.85 Volts at 10 Amperes and a reverse leakage current of 10 microamperes at rated voltage. Thermal resistance from junction to case is specified at 1.5 °C/W, supporting operation within a temperature range of -55°C to 175°C.

Diode Arrays Procurement Notes

Verify the component authenticity by checking the marking code against official MCC documentation. Ensure the ordering suffix matches the required compliance specifications, such as adding '-HF' for halogen-free variants. Purchase only through authorized distributors to guarantee traceability and warranty coverage. Confirm that the bulk packaging details align with specific manufacturing requirements.

Diode Arrays Selection Notes

Select this component when designing circuits requiring low forward voltage drop and high surge capacity. The dual common cathode arrangement allows for efficient power conversion in bridge or center-tapped configurations. Evaluate thermal management strategies based on the specified junction-to-case thermal resistance to maintain safe operating temperatures under continuous load conditions.
