MBRF3045CTH

Diode Arrays Overview

The MBRF3045CTH is a dual Schottky rectifier manufactured by Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation. It features a common cathode configuration with two independent elements within a single package. The device utilizes silicon technology and is housed in an isolated TO-220AB (ITO-220AB) three-pin plastic case. Key electrical characteristics include a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 45 V and an average forward rectified current of 30 A per diode. The component supports a maximum junction temperature of 150 °C and a minimum operating temperature of -65 °C.

Diode Arrays Feature Summary

• Dual common cathode configuration for efficient space-saving integration
• Isolated case connection for simplified thermal management and mounting
• Low forward voltage drop characteristic to minimize power loss
• High surge current capability for robust circuit protection

Diode Arrays Applications

• Free wheeling diode applications in DC-DC converters
• Power supply output rectification stages
• Efficiency optimization in low-voltage high-current circuits

Diode Arrays Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'H' against the official Taiwan Semiconductor datasheet, as standard listings often reference the base model MBRF3045CT. Confirm that the package variant matches the required ITO-220AB form factor. Ensure compliance with RoHS standards if required by your assembly process. Cross-reference the manufacturer part number directly with authorized distributors to avoid obsolete or incorrect variants.

Diode Arrays Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual Schottky rectifier with an isolated tab is required for through-hole mounting. The 45 V rating suits low-voltage DC systems. The 30 A current capacity supports moderate to high-power designs. Verify that the TO-220AB footprint aligns with the PCB layout constraints. Consider the thermal resistance of the isolated case for heat dissipation planning.

Diode Arrays Part Context

This part belongs to the Schottky Diodes & Rectifiers category under the broader Diodes & Rectifiers subcategory. It is produced by Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation, a recognized semiconductor manufacturer. The device is classified as a silicon-based rectifier designed for general-purpose power applications requiring fast switching and low loss characteristics.

Diode Arrays Replacement Considerations

The MBRB3045CT-TP from Micro Commercial Components offers similar specifications but uses a surface-mount D2PAK package instead of through-hole. The MBR2545CTG from onsemi provides comparable electrical ratings in a TO-220-3 package. Verify pinout compatibility and thermal performance before substituting.
