MBR20200CT-Y

Diode Arrays Overview

The MBR20200CT-Y is a dual common cathode Schottky rectifier manufactured by Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation. It features a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 200 V and a maximum average forward rectified current of 20 A per device. The component utilizes an ITO-220AB case with matte tin plated leads. Key electrical characteristics include a peak repetitive forward current of 40 A at rated voltage and a peak forward surge current of 150 A for an 8.3 ms single half-sine wave. The maximum instantaneous forward voltage is specified at 1 V when the forward current is 10 A and the junction temperature is 25°C.

Diode Arrays Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix designation to confirm compliance requirements, as the Y suffix may indicate specific environmental or material attributes distinct from standard variants. Confirm the package type matches the intended PCB footprint, as variations exist between TO-220AB and ITO-220AB forms within this product family. Ensure thermal management designs account for the maximum junction temperature rating during continuous operation.

Diode Arrays Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring robust reverse blocking performance up to 200 V combined with high current handling. The dual common cathode configuration allows for efficient center-tapped transformer rectification or synchronous rectification setups. Consider the forward voltage drop specifications when calculating total system power dissipation and heat sink requirements for optimal thermal performance.

Diode Arrays Part Context

This part belongs to the MBRF series of Schottky barrier rectifiers designed for general-purpose rectification. The series emphasizes reliability through guardring technology and halogen-free materials. It serves as a high-efficiency alternative to standard silicon PN junction rectifiers in medium-power conversion applications where low forward voltage drop is critical.

Diode Arrays Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other MBR20200CT variants from different manufacturers, ensuring identical pinout and voltage/current ratings. Verify that substitute components meet the same RoHS and WEEE directives if environmental compliance is required.
