MBRB2535CT

Diode Arrays Overview

The MBRB2535CT is a dual common-cathode Schottky rectifier manufactured by Vishay. It features two independent anodes sharing a single cathode terminal within a D2PAK (TO-263) surface-mount package. The device provides a maximum average forward current of 15 A per leg, totaling 30 A per device at a case temperature of 130 °C. It supports a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 35 V and operates reliably up to a junction temperature of 150 °C.

Diode Arrays Feature Summary

• Optimized for low reverse leakage current at elevated temperatures using proprietary barrier technology
• Guard ring structure incorporated to enhance ruggedness and ensure long-term reliability
• High purity epoxy encapsulation designed to provide enhanced mechanical strength and moisture resistance

Diode Arrays Applications

• Switching power supplies
• DC-DC converters
• Freewheeling diodes in inductive load circuits
• Reverse battery protection systems

Diode Arrays Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's official documentation to confirm the exact physical package style and reel orientation. Confirm lead-free status requirements if applicable to your assembly process. Ensure thermal management design accounts for the specified junction-to-case thermal resistance values under your expected operating conditions.

Diode Arrays Selection Notes

Select this component when a surface-mount solution with high surge capability and low forward voltage drop is required. The dual common-cathode configuration simplifies circuit layout for center-tapped or full-wave applications. Verify that the system's peak reverse voltage does not exceed the rated limit and that thermal dissipation allows operation within the 150 °C junction temperature range.

Diode Arrays Part Context

This part belongs to the Vishay MBRB series of high-power Schottky rectifiers. It utilizes a silicon die housed in a plastic epoxy body. The D2PAK package facilitates efficient heat transfer to the PCB copper area. The device is designed for general-purpose high-frequency rectification where low power loss is critical.

Diode Arrays Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other Vishay parts in the MBRB25..CT family for different voltage ratings such as the MBRB2545CT. Verify pinout compatibility and thermal characteristics before substituting with components from other manufacturers.
