RB520CS3002LZ

Single Diodes Overview

The RB520CS3002L is a planar Maximum Efficiency General Application (MEGA) Schottky barrier rectifier featuring an integrated guard ring for stress protection. It is encapsulated in a DFN1006-2 (SOD882) leadless ultra-small Surface-Mounted Device plastic package. The device supports an average forward current of up to 200 mA and a reverse voltage of 30 V. Key electrical characteristics include a low forward voltage of 450 mV maximum at 10 mA and a low reverse current of 0.5 μA maximum at 10 V reverse bias.

• Switch mode power supply
• Reverse polarity protection
• Low power consumption applications

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix matches the required tape-and-reel or bulk configuration, as the base part number RB520CS3002L refers to the component itself. Confirm the package version corresponds to the DFN1006-2 (SOD882) outline specified in the datasheet. Ensure that any additional alphanumeric characters in the full order code do not indicate alternative packaging or marking variations not covered by the standard product data sheet.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component for designs requiring minimal footprint due to its leadless DFN1006-2 package. It is suitable for circuits demanding low forward voltage drop to improve efficiency in low-current scenarios. The AEC-Q101 qualification makes it appropriate for automotive environments where robustness against electrical stress is critical. Consider the thermal resistance characteristics when determining heat dissipation requirements on the PCB.

Single Diodes Part Context

This device belongs to Nexperia's MEGA Schottky barrier rectifier family, designed for general application efficiency. It utilizes planar technology to provide reliable performance in small form factors. The integration of a guard ring distinguishes it from standard Schottky diodes by offering improved protection against high-stress conditions, aligning with automotive reliability standards.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

Check for direct substitutes within the RB520 series, such as the RB520CS30L, noting differences in average forward current ratings (100 mA vs. 200 mA). Verify that any replacement maintains the same DFN1006-2 package dimensions and pinout compatibility to ensure seamless integration into existing footprints without redesigning the printed circuit board layout.
