Diode Arrays Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix to confirm packaging type and compliance status. The -BP suffix indicates bulk tube packaging. Ensure procurement channels are authorized distributors to guarantee genuine parts with full traceability and adherence to MCC quality standards. Confirm RoHS compliance and halogen-free requirements if specified for the application.

Diode Arrays Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual common cathode Schottky rectifier is required for high-frequency applications. The 20A current rating and 100V blocking voltage suit moderate power conversion tasks. Consider the 2.0°C/W thermal resistance for heatsinking calculations. Verify that the TO-220AB through-hole package aligns with the PCB layout constraints.

Diode Arrays Part Context

This part belongs to the MBRL series of low VF Schottky barrier rectifiers from Micro Commercial Components. The series is designed for general-purpose rectification where efficiency and speed are priorities. The TO-220AB package provides a balance of current handling capacity and ease of mounting for industrial and consumer electronics.

Diode Arrays Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other dual common cathode Schottky rectifiers offering similar 20A and 100V ratings. Verify pinout compatibility and thermal resistance specifications before substitution.
