MBRF20L120CTH

Diode Arrays Overview

The MBRF20L120CTH is a dual common cathode Schottky rectifier manufactured by Taiwan Semiconductor. It features a 120V maximum DC reverse voltage and an average forward current of 20A per diode. The device exhibits a typical forward voltage of 850mV at 20A and a low reverse leakage current of 20µA at 100V. It operates within a junction temperature range of -55°C to 150°C and utilizes an ITO-220AB through-hole package with isolated tab.

Diode Arrays Feature Summary

• Dual common cathode configuration for efficient power conversion
• Guardring structure provides enhanced overvoltage protection
• High surge current capability ensures robust performance under transient conditions

Diode Arrays Applications

• DC-DC converters
• Power supply units
• Free-wheeling rectification in inductive loads

Diode Arrays Procurement Notes

Verify the suffix 'H' on the packing code to confirm AEC-Q101 qualification and compliance with JESD 201 class 2 whisker test requirements. Ensure the component meets RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU standards and is halogen-free according to IEC 61249-2-21 definitions before integration into automotive or sensitive electronic assemblies.

Diode Arrays Selection Notes

Select this component when a 120V blocking voltage is required alongside 20A continuous current handling in a through-hole format. The ITO-220AB package offers thermal advantages over smaller surface-mount options. Verify that the specific 'H' suffix variant is needed for automotive reliability standards rather than standard industrial applications.

Diode Arrays Part Context

This part belongs to the MBRF20L series of Schottky rectifiers from Taiwan Semiconductor, designed for high-efficiency power applications. The series includes variants with different voltage ratings, such as the 100V MBRF20L100CTHC0G. The 'CT' designation indicates a dual common cathode array, while 'H' specifies automotive-grade qualification.

Diode Arrays Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other 120V, 20A dual Schottky rectifiers in TO-220AB packages from manufacturers like Vishay or ON Semiconductor. Ensure equivalent forward voltage drop and reverse leakage characteristics are matched for circuit compatibility.
