MBR2030CT-BP

Diode Arrays Overview

The MBR2030CT-BP is a silicon Schottky barrier rectifier manufactured by Micro Commercial Components. It features a dual anode common cathode configuration housed in a TO-220AB package. The device supports a maximum average forward current of 20A at a case temperature of 120°C and withstands a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 30V. Key electrical parameters include a maximum instantaneous forward voltage of 0.80V, a peak forward surge current rating of 150A for an 8.3ms half-sine wave, and a maximum DC reverse current of 5mA at rated blocking voltage and 125°C junction temperature.

Diode Arrays Feature Summary

• Guard ring structure provides enhanced transient protection capabilities
• Low forward voltage drop contributes to high efficiency performance
• Epoxy material meets UL 94 V-0 flammability rating standards

Diode Arrays Applications

• High frequency rectification circuits
• Free wheeling diodes in inductive loads
• Power supply output rectification

Diode Arrays Procurement Notes

Verify the authenticity of the component by checking for the specific -BP suffix which designates RoHS compliance. Purchase only from authorized MCC distributors or directly from the manufacturer to ensure traceability and avoid counterfeit parts. Confirm that the ordering information matches the required bulk packaging specifications before finalizing procurement orders.

Diode Arrays Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual anode common cathode configuration is required for synchronous rectification or bridge applications. Ensure the operating junction temperature remains within the specified range of -55°C to +150°C. Verify that the thermal resistance characteristics allow for adequate heat dissipation at the target forward current levels.

Diode Arrays Part Context

This part belongs to the MBR2020CT through MBR20100CT series of Schottky barrier rectifiers. All devices in this family share identical physical dimensions and thermal characteristics while differing primarily in their maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage ratings. The series utilizes a standard TO-220AB through-hole mounting style suitable for general-purpose power electronics.

Diode Arrays Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements within the same MCC series include MBR2020CT, MBR2035CT, MBR2040CT, MBR2045CT, MBR2060CT, MBR2080CT, and MBR20100CT. These alternatives maintain identical pinouts and current ratings but offer different voltage blocking capabilities. Cross-manufacturer substitutes must be verified against the specific electrical limits and package dimensions.
