SBR20U100CTE-G

Diode Arrays Overview

The SBR20U100CTE-G is a Super Barrier Rectifier manufactured by Diodes Incorporated, housed in a TO-262 surface-mount package. It features a dual common cathode configuration with two independent legs. Each leg supports a peak repetitive reverse voltage of 100 V and an average rectified output current of 10 A, totaling 20 A per device. The forward voltage drop ranges from 0.57 V to 0.82 V depending on temperature and current conditions. Non-repetitive peak forward surge current reaches 200 A, while the maximum thermal resistance from junction to case is 2 °C/W. Operating and storage temperatures span from -65 °C to +175 °C.
