MBR20150CTP

Diode Arrays Overview

The MBR20150CTP is a discontinued Schottky barrier rectifier manufactured by Diodes Incorporated. It features a dual common cathode configuration housed in an ITO-220S package with three pins. The device supports a peak repetitive reverse voltage of 150 V and provides a total average rectified output current of 20 A, distributed as 10 A per leg. It exhibits a maximum forward voltage drop of 0.9 V at 10 A and withstands a non-repetitive peak forward surge current of 105 A. The component operates within a temperature range of -65°C to +175°C.

Diode Arrays Feature Summary

• Schottky barrier chip construction for low forward voltage drop and soft, fast switching capability
• ITO-220S heat sink tab electrically isolated from the cathode
• Guard ring design for overvoltage protection
• UL approval in accordance with UL 1557

Diode Arrays Applications

• Low voltage, high frequency inverters

Diode Arrays Procurement Notes

This specific part number is officially obsolete and has been discontinued by the manufacturer. No new production units are available through authorized channels. Verification of current stock status is not applicable as the component is no longer manufactured. Designers must transition to alternative packages or updated series immediately to ensure supply chain continuity.

Diode Arrays Selection Notes

Selection requires identifying equivalent components from other manufacturers or different package variants within the same product family, as exact alternates are unavailable. Engineers should verify that replacement parts match the 150 V reverse voltage rating and 20 A total current capacity. Thermal resistance and isolation voltage specifications must also align with the original system requirements to maintain safety and performance standards.

Diode Arrays Part Context

The MBR20150CTP belongs to the MBR series of Schottky barrier rectifiers produced by Diodes Incorporated. This series utilizes platinum barrier metal technology to achieve superior switching characteristics compared to standard silicon junctions. The component was designed for power supply applications requiring high efficiency and low conduction losses in compact through-hole configurations.

Diode Arrays Replacement Considerations

No exact alternate part number exists. Use MBR20150 from other available packages as a substitute. Verify pinout compatibility and thermal management requirements when transitioning to alternative suppliers or package styles.
