SL22-M3/5BT

Single Diodes Overview

The SL22-M3/5BT is a surface-mount Schottky barrier rectifier manufactured by Vishay General Semiconductor - Diodes Division. It features a DO-214AA (SMB) package and is designed for low voltage, high frequency applications. Key electrical parameters include a maximum average forward rectified current of 2 A and a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 20 V. The device exhibits a typical forward voltage drop of 0.32 V at rated current and supports a peak non-repetitive forward surge current of 100 A. It operates within a junction temperature range of -55°C to +125°C.

Single Diodes Feature Summary

• Low forward voltage drop for high efficiency
• Guardring design for overvoltage protection
• Ideal for automated placement processes

Single Diodes Applications

• Low voltage high frequency inverters
• Freewheeling diode circuits
• DC-to-DC converters
• Polarity protection applications

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix against official documentation, as standard listings often cite SL22-E3/52T. Confirm RoHS compliance status and moisture sensitivity level requirements for your assembly process. Ensure the supplier provides valid traceability data for the DO-214AA package variant.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-profile SMB package is required for space-constrained designs. The 20 V rating suits low-voltage DC systems. Consider the thermal resistance and forward voltage characteristics for power loss calculations in high-frequency switching environments compared to standard recovery rectifiers.

Single Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the SL22 series of surface mount Schottky barrier rectifiers. The series is characterized by its guardring structure which enhances reliability under overvoltage conditions. Vishay utilizes epoxy materials meeting UL 94V-0 flammability ratings for these components, ensuring safety in various electronic assemblies.
