MBRB20100CT

Diode Arrays Overview

The MBRB20100CT is a dual Schottky barrier rectifier manufactured by onsemi, housed in a D2PAK surface-mount package. It features a common cathode configuration with two independent diode elements. The device is rated for a repetitive peak reverse voltage of 100 V and an average forward rectified current of 10 A per leg. Key electrical characteristics include a maximum non-repetitive peak forward surge current of 160 A and a low forward voltage drop to ensure high efficiency. The component operates at junction temperatures up to 175°C and meets UL 94 V-0 flammability standards.

Diode Arrays Feature Summary

• Employs Schottky barrier principle with platinum barrier metal for majority carrier conduction.
• Features guard-ring technology designed to provide stress protection against overvoltage conditions.
• Utilizes a center-tap configuration suitable for power surface-mount applications.
• Constructed with epoxy material that meets UL 94 V-0 requirements.

Diode Arrays Applications

• Low voltage, high frequency inverters
• Free wheeling circuits
• Polarity protection applications

Diode Arrays Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix to confirm compliance requirements and automotive qualification status. Ensure the selected variant matches the required thermal management capabilities for the intended D2PAK mounting environment. Confirm that the component meets all necessary regulatory standards for the target market before finalizing procurement decisions.

Diode Arrays Selection Notes

Select this component for designs requiring efficient rectification in low-voltage, high-frequency environments. The D2PAK package offers a size comparable to industry-standard TO-220 packages while enabling surface-mount assembly. Consider the 175°C operating temperature rating for high-thermal-stress applications where standard silicon rectifiers may be insufficient.

Diode Arrays Part Context

This device belongs to the MBRB series of Switchmode Power Rectifiers from onsemi. These components are engineered to replace traditional fast recovery diodes in freewheeling and polarity protection applications, offering superior switching speeds and lower forward voltage drops. The series is widely used in DC-DC converters and power management systems requiring high reliability.

Diode Arrays Replacement Considerations

Consult official substitution guides for equivalent parts within the NRVBB or MBRF series. Verify pinout compatibility and thermal performance when replacing with devices from other manufacturers such as Littelfuse or Vishay.
