MBR20100CTL

Diode Arrays Overview

The MBR20100CTL is a dual high-voltage Schottky barrier rectifier manufactured by Diodes Incorporated. It features a common cathode configuration with two independent rectifiers integrated into a single package. The device is rated for a repetitive reverse voltage of 100V and an average forward rectified current of 20A per diode at a case temperature of 115°C. The typical forward voltage drop is 0.82V at 10A. It utilizes silicon technology and is housed in a TO-247AC package, designed for low power loss and high efficiency in switching applications.

Diode Arrays Feature Summary

• Dual common cathode construction for center-tap full-wave rectification
• Metal-silicon junction majority carrier conduction eliminates reverse recovery time
• Guard ring structure provides protection against transient overvoltage conditions

Diode Arrays Applications

• Low voltage, high frequency inverters
• Free wheeling diodes in DC-DC converters
• Polarity protection circuits

Diode Arrays Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'CTL' against the official Diodes Incorporated datasheet to confirm pinout and thermal characteristics. Ensure the component meets RoHS compliance requirements for your target market. Confirm availability status as distribution channels may vary. Validate that the TO-247AC package dimensions match your PCB footprint constraints before finalizing procurement.

Diode Arrays Selection Notes

Select this component when designing circuits requiring high efficiency at low output voltages where reverse recovery losses are critical. The 100V rating suits 12V to 48V input systems. Consider the thermal resistance of the TO-247AC package for heat dissipation needs. Compare forward voltage specifications against alternative manufacturers to ensure optimal system efficiency and thermal management.

Diode Arrays Part Context

This part belongs to the MBR series of high-voltage Schottky rectifiers from Diodes Incorporated. It serves as a direct replacement for legacy Motorola and ON Semiconductor parts sharing the same electrical ratings and package style. The series is widely used in industrial power supplies and automotive electronics requiring robust rectification capabilities.

Diode Arrays Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with MBR20100CT or MBR20100CT-E1 from Diodes Incorporated. Verify pin compatibility and thermal performance with equivalents from other manufacturers such as Vishay or Micro Commercial Components before substitution.
