Diode Arrays Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix 'F' confirms the ITO-220AB package style rather than standard TO-220AB. Confirm RoHS compliance status as indicated in the datasheet revision. Ensure mounting instructions regarding heatsink isolation distances are followed to maintain specified isolation voltages during installation.

Diode Arrays Selection Notes

Select this component when high-frequency switching applications require low leakage and minimal forward voltage drop. The ITO-220AB package offers electrical isolation suitable for chassis mounting without additional insulators. Verify that the 60V reverse voltage rating exceeds the circuit's peak repetitive reverse voltage requirements.

Diode Arrays Part Context

This part belongs to the Littelfuse MBR series of Schottky Barrier Rectifiers designed for commercial applications. The 'F' designation specifically identifies the ITO-220AB plastic package variant. The series emphasizes high temperature performance and low power loss characteristics typical of majority carrier conduction devices.

Diode Arrays Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other manufacturers offering 2x10A, 60V common cathode Schottky rectifiers in ITO-220AB packages. Verify pinout compatibility and thermal resistance values before substitution.

Diode Arrays FAQ
