MBR3045CT-Y

Diode Arrays Overview

The MBR3045CT-Y is a dual Schottky rectifier manufactured by Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation. It features a common cathode configuration with two silicon elements. The device supports a maximum repetitive reverse voltage of 45 V and an average forward current of 15 A per diode. It operates within a junction temperature range of -65 °C to +150 °C. The component utilizes a TO-220AB package with an isolated case connection, suitable for through-hole mounting.

Diode Arrays Feature Summary

• Dual common cathode Schottky barrier rectifier design
• Isolated cathode case connection for thermal management
• Silicon construction optimized for low power loss

Diode Arrays Applications

• Switch mode power supplies
• High frequency DC to DC converters
• Free wheeling applications

Diode Arrays Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'Y' against the manufacturer's official datasheet to confirm pinout compatibility and marking variations. Ensure the procurement source provides the original Taiwan Semiconductor documentation rather than third-party summaries. Confirm RoHS compliance status directly from the latest production data sheet before integration into designs requiring environmental certification.

Diode Arrays Selection Notes

Select this component for circuits requiring a 45 V blocking capability and 15 A continuous current handling in a standard TO-220AB footprint. The isolated case facilitates direct heatsinking without electrical isolation components. Verify that the system's peak reverse voltage does not exceed the 45 V rating under all transient conditions.

Diode Arrays Part Context

This part belongs to the MBR3045 series of Schottky rectifiers. Similar variants include the MBR3045CT and MBR3045WT, which share core electrical specifications but may differ in packaging or manufacturing origin. The MBR3045CT designation typically indicates the standard through-hole TO-220AB form factor used in general-purpose power electronics.

Diode Arrays Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with Vishay VS-MBR3045CTPBF or Micro Commercial Components MBR3045CT-BP for equivalent electrical performance. Verify package dimensions and thermal resistance values match the existing PCB layout constraints before substitution.
