MBRD10150CT

Diode Arrays Overview

The MBRD10150CT is a dual Schottky rectifier manufactured by SMC Diode Solutions. It features a common cathode configuration with two independent anodes within a single D2PAK (TO-263-3) surface-mount package. The device supports a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 150 V and provides a total average forward rectified current of 10 A, distributed as 5 A per leg. Key electrical characteristics include a low forward voltage drop of 950 mV at 5 A and a maximum non-repetitive peak surge current of 100 A. The component operates reliably across a junction temperature range from -55°C to +150°C.

Diode Arrays Procurement Notes

Verify the specific manufacturer designation on the datasheet, as the MBRD10150CT part number is widely used by multiple semiconductor vendors including Littelfuse and Micro Commercial Components. Confirm that the sourced component matches the SMC Diode Solutions specifications, particularly the 5A per leg current rating and D2PAK package dimensions, to ensure compatibility with existing designs.

Diode Arrays Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact surface-mount solution is required for dual-channel rectification. The D2PAK package offers superior thermal dissipation compared to smaller packages, supporting the 10 A total current rating. Ensure the application voltage does not exceed the 150 V reverse voltage limit and that the PCB layout accommodates the TO-263-3 footprint with appropriate thermal vias for heat management.

Diode Arrays Part Context

This device belongs to the MBR series of Schottky rectifiers designed for high-frequency and high-efficiency applications. The dual configuration allows for use in full-wave rectification or synchronous rectification topologies without requiring separate discrete components. The technology utilizes silicon Schottky barriers to achieve fast switching speeds and low reverse recovery charge.

Diode Arrays Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other manufacturers' MBRD10150CT parts, such as those from Littelfuse or MCC, ensuring identical pinout and electrical ratings. Verify package tolerance differences between TO-263-3 variants from different suppliers before substitution.
