MBRB2535CTHE3_A/I

Diode Arrays Overview

The MBRB2535CTHE3_A/I is a dual common cathode Schottky rectifier manufactured by Vishay General Semiconductor - Diodes Division. It features a 35 V maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage and a 25 A average forward rectified current per section. The device utilizes a Super Barrier Rectifier (SBR) technology, which provides low forward voltage drop and high switching efficiency. It is housed in a TO-263AB (D²PAK) surface-mount package with an isolated cathode configuration. The component is qualified to AEC-Q101 standards for automotive applications and operates within a junction temperature range of -65°C to 175°C.

Diode Arrays Feature Summary

• Super Barrier Rectifier (SBR) technology for high efficiency and low thermal stress
• AEC-Q101 qualified for automotive reliability requirements
• Low forward voltage drop reducing conduction losses
• Fast switching characteristics minimizing reverse recovery charge

Diode Arrays Applications

• Automotive DC/DC converters
• Power factor correction circuits
• Free-wheeling diodes in synchronous rectification topologies
• Isolated power supply outputs

Diode Arrays Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'A/I' against the manufacturer's official datasheet to confirm pinout orientation and packaging variant. Ensure the procurement source provides valid RoHS compliance documentation and AEC-Q101 qualification certificates. Cross-reference the part number with Vishay's latest product change notices to confirm active status and any recent parameter updates before finalizing orders.

Diode Arrays Selection Notes

Select this component when designing systems requiring high current handling with minimal forward voltage drop at elevated temperatures. The TO-263AB package offers robust thermal performance for board-mounted applications. Consider the 35 V rating margin relative to the operating voltage to ensure reliable blocking capability during transient events. Verify that the PCB footprint matches the D²PAK outline dimensions specified in the mechanical drawings.

Diode Arrays Part Context

This part belongs to the MBRB25 series of dual Schottky rectifiers from Vishay. It shares the same electrical specifications as the non-qualified version but includes additional automotive-grade testing and traceability. The SBR technology replaces traditional silicon PN junctions to reduce leakage current and improve switching speed compared to standard Schottky diodes.

Diode Arrays Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements must match the 25 A current rating, 35 V reverse voltage, and TO-263AB package. Verify compatibility with existing thermal management designs due to potential differences in thermal resistance values between manufacturers.
