MBRB2030CT-TP

Diode Arrays Overview

The MBRB2030CT-TP is a Schottky rectifier manufactured by Micro Commercial Components (MCC). It features a dual common cathode configuration housed in a TO-263AC (D2PAK) surface-mount package. The device utilizes silicon technology and supports an average forward current of 20 A with a repetitive peak reverse voltage rating of 30 V. Key electrical characteristics include a maximum forward voltage of 840 mV at 20 A, a non-repetitive peak forward surge current of 150 A, and a maximum reverse leakage current of 100 uA. It operates within a junction temperature range of -55 °C to +150 °C.

• Dual common cathode configuration for efficient bridge-less PFC or synchronous rectification applications
• Low forward voltage drop characteristic to minimize conduction losses
• High surge current capability to withstand transient overload conditions
• Surface-mount D2PAK package design for automated assembly and thermal management

Diode Arrays Applications

• DC-DC converters
• Free-wheeling diodes in power supplies
• Bridge-less Power Factor Correction (PFC) circuits
• Synchronous rectification in adapter designs

Diode Arrays Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version when sourcing, as MCC may update thermal or mechanical drawings over time. Confirm that the TO-263AC footprint matches your PCB layout, noting the exposed pad requirements for proper soldering and heat dissipation. Ensure compliance with RoHS and REACH standards if required by your manufacturing environment. Cross-reference pinouts carefully against other manufacturers' D2PAK variants to avoid orientation errors during assembly.

Diode Arrays Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-voltage, high-current Schottky solution is needed in a surface-mount form factor. The 30 V rating suits low-output voltage rails, while the 20 A capacity handles moderate power levels. Compare the 840 mV forward voltage against alternatives to ensure optimal efficiency targets are met. Consider the thermal resistance of the TO-263AC package relative to your board's copper area for adequate heat sinking without additional heatsinks.
