MBR2090CT-1

Diode Arrays Overview

The MBR2090CT-1 is a center-tap Schottky rectifier manufactured by Vishay General Semiconductor - Diodes Division. It features two silicon elements in a common cathode configuration housed in a TO-262 (TO-262AA) package. The device supports a maximum average forward current of 20 A per device and handles a repetitive peak reverse voltage of 90 V. Key electrical characteristics include a maximum forward voltage drop of 0.70 V at 10 A and 125 °C, and a non-repetitive peak surge current capability of 850 A for a 5 µs sine pulse. The component operates within a junction temperature range of -65 °C to 150 °C.

Diode Arrays Feature Summary

• Optimized for low reverse leakage current at elevated temperatures using proprietary barrier technology
• High frequency operation capability with low forward voltage drop
• Guard ring structure designed to enhance ruggedness and long-term reliability
• Encapsulated in high purity, high temperature epoxy for enhanced mechanical strength and moisture resistance

Diode Arrays Applications

• Switching power supplies
• Converters
• Freewheeling diodes
• Reverse battery protection

Diode Arrays Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's official documentation to confirm compliance status and packaging orientation. The '-1' suffix indicates the TO-262 package style. Confirm RoHS directive 2002/95/EC compliance and halogen-free status according to IEC 61249-2-21 definitions if required for your assembly process. Ensure the selected variant matches the required thermal and electrical ratings for your design.

Diode Arrays Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual anode common cathode Schottky rectifier is required for center-tapped configurations. The TO-262 package is suitable for through-hole mounting applications requiring robust mechanical strength. Consider the 150 °C junction temperature rating for high-temperature environments. Verify that the 90 V reverse voltage rating aligns with the circuit's peak inverse voltage requirements and that the 20 A average current capacity meets the load demands.

Diode Arrays Part Context

This part belongs to the MBR20...CT series of Schottky rectifiers from Vishay High Power Products. The series includes variants with different voltage ratings (80 V, 90 V, 100 V) and packages (D2PAK, TO-262). The MBR2090CT-1 specifically denotes the 90 V version in the TO-262 package. These devices are engineered for efficiency and reliability in power conversion applications, leveraging silicon Schottky technology for fast switching and low conduction losses.

Diode Arrays Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other manufacturers offering 2x10A, 90V common cathode Schottky rectifiers in TO-262 packages. Verify pinout compatibility, thermal resistance values, and forward voltage characteristics to ensure functional equivalence. Check for any differences in lead-free plating or encapsulation materials that might affect solderability or mechanical performance.
