MBRB2045CT

Diode Arrays Overview

The MBRB2045CT is a dual common cathode Schottky barrier rectifier manufactured by Vishay. It features a silicon construction housed in a D2PAK-3 (TO-263) surface-mount package. The device supports a repetitive reverse voltage of 45 V and an average forward current of 20 A per element. Key electrical parameters include a maximum forward voltage of 840 mV at 10 A, a non-repetitive peak forward surge current of 1.06 kA, and a maximum reverse leakage current of 100 µA. It operates within a temperature range of -65 °C to +150 °C junction temperature.
