MURSB1640CTA-TP

Overview

The MURSB1640CTA-TP is a standard recovery rectifier manufactured by Micro Commercial Components (MCC). It features a single common cathode configuration housed in a D2PAK-3 (TO-263-3) surface-mount package. The device supports a maximum repetitive reverse voltage of 400 V and an average forward current of 16 A. Key electrical specifications include a maximum forward voltage of 1.2 V, a peak surge current rating of 100 A, and a typical reverse leakage current of 5 µA. The unit operates within a temperature range of -55 °C to +150 °C junction temperature.

Feature Summary

• Designed for high-frequency applications to minimize energy losses
• Features high forward surge capability for robust operation
• Utilizes a compact surface-mount package for efficient board space usage

Applications

• High-frequency power supply circuits
• DC-to-DC converter modules
• General-purpose rectification in industrial electronics

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'TP' indicates the manufacturer's standard tape and reel or cut tape packaging format as defined by MCC documentation. Confirm RoHS compliance status through official datasheets prior to integration. Ensure the D2PAK-3 footprint matches the target PCB design constraints. Cross-reference the part number with authorized distributors to confirm current availability and authenticity.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 16 A current rating and 400 V blocking voltage are required in a surface-mount form factor. The standard recovery characteristic suits applications where switching speed is less critical than cost efficiency. Compare against super-fast variants if reduced reverse recovery time is necessary for higher frequency operations. Validate thermal management requirements based on the 1.2 V forward voltage drop at full load.

Part Context

This part belongs to the MURSB series of rectifiers from Micro Commercial Components. The series is engineered for general-purpose rectification tasks requiring reliable performance in compact electronic designs. The TO-263-3 package provides a balance between current handling capacity and mounting density suitable for modern manufacturing processes.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes may include other 16 A, 400 V standard recovery rectifiers in the D2PAK-3 package. Verify pinout compatibility and thermal resistance parameters before substitution. Consider the MURSD1640CTA-TP for similar specifications if different recovery characteristics are acceptable.
