MBRS1645

Single Diodes Overview

The MBRS1645 is a single-element, one-phase silicon Schottky barrier rectifier manufactured by Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation. It features a maximum average forward rectified current of 16 amperes and a repetitive peak reverse voltage rating of 45 volts. The device utilizes a TO-263AB (D2PAK-3/2) surface-mount package with the case connected to the cathode terminal. Key electrical specifications include a maximum non-repetitive peak forward surge current of 150 amperes and a maximum forward voltage drop of 0.75 volts.

Single Diodes Feature Summary

• Low power loss and high efficiency design
• Guardring structure for overvoltage protection
• High surge current capability
• Ideal for automated placement processes

Single Diodes Applications

• Efficiency-oriented power supply circuits
• Free-wheeling diode applications in switch-mode power supplies
• General purpose rectification requiring low forward voltage

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify compliance with RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and WEEE 2002/96/EC standards. Confirm halogen-free status according to IEC 61249-2-21 definition if required. Check for AEC-Q101 qualification by inspecting the packing code prefix 'H'. Ensure moisture sensitivity level meets J-STD-020 Level 1 requirements for your assembly process.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a 16A current rating and 45V blocking voltage are required in a D2PAK package. Consider the 0.75V forward voltage drop for thermal management calculations. Verify that the TO-263AB footprint matches your PCB layout constraints. Ensure the common cathode configuration aligns with your circuit topology.

Single Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the MBRS series of Surface Mount Schottky Barrier Rectifiers from Taiwan Semiconductor. The series is characterized by its use of platinum barrier metal technology to achieve low forward voltage and high switching efficiency. The MBRS1645 specifically targets applications needing robust performance in a compact surface-mount form factor.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with Vishay VS-MBRB1645-M3 or ON Semiconductor MBRB1645 for similar 16A, 45V Schottky rectifiers in comparable packages. Verify pinout compatibility and thermal characteristics before substitution.
