Diode Arrays Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's documentation to confirm the package type and delivery mode. The E3 suffix indicates RoHS compliance, while the I suffix typically denotes tape and reel packaging. Confirm that the required thermal resistance and mounting torque specifications align with the design constraints before finalizing procurement.

Diode Arrays Selection Notes

Select this component when a surface-mount solution is required for high-frequency rectification or freewheeling applications. The D2PAK package offers lower thermal resistance compared to through-hole alternatives, facilitating efficient heat dissipation. Ensure the circuit design accommodates the 100 V reverse voltage rating and the 20 A total current capacity under expected operating temperatures.

Diode Arrays Part Context

This part belongs to the MBR20HxxCT series of dual common-cathode Schottky rectifiers from Vishay. The series includes variants with different voltage ratings and package options, such as TO-220AB and ITO-220AB. The MBRB variant specifically designates the D2PAK (TO-263AB) surface-mount package, distinguishing it from the leaded versions in the same electrical family.
