MBR60040CT

Diode Arrays Overview

The GeneSiC Semiconductor MBR60040CT is a silicon power Schottky diode module rated for a repetitive peak reverse voltage of 40 V and an average forward current of 600 A per package. It features a Twin Tower package design with a maximum forward voltage of 0.75 V at 300 A and a thermal resistance of 0.28 °C/W per leg. The device supports a peak forward surge current of 4000 A and operates within a junction temperature range of -55 °C to 150 °C.

Diode Arrays Feature Summary

• High surge capability designed for robust power handling
• Twin Tower package configuration for efficient mounting
• Low forward voltage drop for improved efficiency
• Not sensitive to electrostatic discharge

Diode Arrays Applications

• DC-DC converter output rectification
• Free-wheeling diodes in motor drives
• Power supply freewheeling applications

Diode Arrays Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix (CT or CTR) to confirm terminal lead orientation, as reversed leads affect board layout compatibility. Confirm RoHS compliance status and check for recent discontinuation notices from Navitas Semiconductor, which acquired GeneSiC. Ensure thermal interface material selection matches the specified junction-to-case thermal resistance requirements.

Diode Arrays Selection Notes

Select this component when a 40 V rating is required alongside high current capacity. Compare thermal resistance values against system heat sink capabilities. Verify that the Twin Tower package dimensions fit the mechanical constraints. Consider the non-ESD sensitive nature during handling procedures.

Diode Arrays Part Context

This part belongs to the MBR600 series of silicon Schottky diode modules from GeneSiC Semiconductor. The series includes variants ranging from 20 V to 40 V reverse voltage ratings. These modules are designed for high-efficiency power conversion applications requiring low forward voltage and high surge current tolerance.

Diode Arrays Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements include other MBR600 series variants such as MBR60035CT or MBR60030CT if lower voltage ratings are acceptable. Verify pinout compatibility before substitution.
