MBRT20040R

Diode Arrays Overview

The GeneSiC Semiconductor MBRT20040R is a silicon power Schottky diode module featuring a Three Tower package with an electrically isolated base plate. It provides a repetitive peak reverse voltage of 40 V and an average forward current rating of 200 A per package. The device exhibits a maximum instantaneous forward voltage of 0.70 V at Tj = 150 °C and supports a peak forward surge current of 1500 A per leg. Thermal resistance from junction to case is 0.45 °C/W per leg, with an operating temperature range spanning -55 °C to +150 °C.

Diode Arrays Procurement Notes

Verify the specific electrical ratings against the official datasheet before integration. Confirm that the thermal management design accommodates the specified junction-to-case thermal resistance. Ensure the application environment remains within the stated operating temperature limits to maintain reliability and performance specifications.

Diode Arrays Selection Notes

Select this component when a low forward voltage drop and high surge current capacity are required in a thermally efficient package. The isolated base plate facilitates direct heatsink mounting without additional insulators. Consider the 40 V reverse voltage rating to ensure adequate margin for the specific circuit topology and potential voltage spikes.

Diode Arrays Part Context

This part belongs to the MBRT200 series of silicon power Schottky diodes manufactured by GeneSiC Semiconductor. The series includes variants with different reverse voltage ratings, such as 20 V, 30 V, 35 V, and 40 V, all sharing the same 200 A current rating and Three Tower package form factor.

Diode Arrays Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements include other MBRT20040R units or equivalent modules from the same manufacturer family with identical pinout and thermal characteristics. Verify that any substitute maintains the 40 V reverse voltage and 200 A current ratings.
