MBRT40030

Diode Arrays Overview

The GeneSiC Semiconductor MBRT40030 is a silicon power Schottky diode module rated for a repetitive peak reverse voltage of 30 V and an average forward current of 400 A per package. It features a maximum instantaneous forward voltage of 0.70 V at Tj = 25 °C and IFM = 200 A. The device supports a junction temperature range from -55 °C to +150 °C with a maximum thermal resistance (junction-to-case) of 0.35 °C/W per leg. Peak forward surge current capability reaches 3000 A per leg under specified conditions.

Diode Arrays Feature Summary

• High surge current capability designed for demanding power applications
• Electrically isolated base plate providing safety isolation
• Three tower package configuration for efficient mounting

Diode Arrays Applications

• DC-DC converters
• Free-wheeling rectification in motor drives
• Power factor correction circuits

Diode Arrays Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix designation, as 'R' variants indicate reversed leads compared to standard configurations. Confirm that the required reverse voltage rating aligns with the 30 V specification rather than adjacent ratings like 20 V or 35 V. Ensure thermal management solutions accommodate the 0.35 °C/W junction-to-case thermal resistance to maintain safe operating temperatures within the specified limits.

Diode Arrays Selection Notes

Select this component when a 30 V blocking voltage and 400 A continuous current are required in a screw-mountable format. The low forward voltage drop contributes to reduced conduction losses. Verify compatibility with the three-tower mounting style and ensure the application environment remains within the -55 °C to +150 °C operating temperature range.

Diode Arrays Part Context

This part belongs to the MBRT400 series of silicon Schottky rectifier modules manufactured by GeneSiC Semiconductor. The series offers various voltage ratings ranging from 20 V to 40 V while maintaining a consistent 400 A current capacity. These modules utilize an electrically isolated base plate design suitable for high-power industrial and automotive applications requiring robust thermal performance.

Diode Arrays Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with MBRT40020 for lower voltage requirements or MBRT40035 for higher voltage needs within the same series. Verify lead orientation differences if substituting with 'R' suffix versions.
