MBR6060R

Single Diodes Overview

The GeneSiC Semiconductor MBR6060R is a silicon power Schottky rectifier in a DO-5 (DO-203AB) stud package. It features a 60 V repetitive peak reverse voltage and a 60 A continuous forward current rating. The device has a maximum forward voltage of 0.75 V at 60 A and a surge non-repetitive forward current capability of 700 A. Thermal resistance from junction to case is 1.0 °C/W. The operating and storage temperature range spans from -55 °C to 150 °C. The 'R' suffix indicates reversed polarity where the stud functions as the anode.

Single Diodes Feature Summary

• High surge current capability for robust transient handling
• Low forward voltage drop for improved efficiency
• Not sensitive to electrostatic discharge

Single Diodes Applications

• General purpose rectification in power supplies
• Freewheeling diodes in DC-DC converters
• Reverse polarity protection circuits

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's official documentation to confirm terminal configuration. The 'R' designation explicitly denotes reversed polarity with the stud connected to the anode, which differs from standard configurations. Ensure thermal interface materials are compatible with the stud mount design for proper heat dissipation during operation.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a single-phase Schottky rectifier with high current capacity and low forward voltage is required. The stud mount package facilitates direct heatsinking for efficient thermal management in high-power applications. Consider the 60 A continuous current rating and 700 A surge capability to ensure adequate margin for the intended circuit loads and transient conditions.

Single Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the MBR60 series of silicon power Schottky diodes manufactured by GeneSiC Semiconductor. The series includes variants with different voltage ratings ranging from 45 V to 100 V, all sharing similar current ratings and package styles. These devices are designed for general-purpose rectification applications requiring high reliability and efficiency.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other manufacturers offering DO-5 packaged Schottky diodes with matching 60 V and 60 A ratings. Verify that any substitute maintains the same stud polarity configuration or adjust mounting accordingly. Confirm thermal resistance and forward voltage characteristics align with the original design requirements.

Single Diodes FAQ

What is the difference between the standard MBR6060 and the MBR6060R?

The 'R' suffix indicates reversed polarity. In the MBR6060R, the stud serves as the anode, whereas in the standard version, the stud typically serves as the cathode.

What is the maximum surge current the MBR6060R can handle?

The MBR6060R can withstand a non-repetitive surge forward current of 700 A under half-sine wave conditions lasting 8.3 ms.
