Diode Arrays Procurement Notes

Verify that the ordering suffix HM3 confirms AEC-Q101 qualification and compliance with JESD 201 class 2 whisker testing standards. Confirm the specific voltage rating matches the design requirement, as this part number corresponds to the 60 V variant within the MBRB30HxxCT series. Ensure the D2PAK footprint aligns with the target PCB layout specifications.

Diode Arrays Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual common cathode configuration is required for synchronous rectification or polarity protection. The high barrier technology makes it suitable for environments demanding elevated thermal stability. Verify that the 60 V reverse voltage rating accommodates system transients and that the 15 A per diode current capacity meets the load requirements without exceeding thermal limits.

Diode Arrays Part Context

This device belongs to the MBRB30HxxCT series from Vishay General Semiconductor. It shares the same physical D2PAK package and electrical architecture as other variants in the family, differentiated primarily by their maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage ratings, which include 45 V and 60 V options. The HM3 suffix denotes the automotive-grade version of the standard M3 commercial grade product.
