V20W60C-M3/I

Diode Arrays Overview

The V20W60C-M3/I is a dual Trench MOS Barrier Schottky (TMBS) rectifier manufactured by Vishay General Semiconductor. It features a dual common cathode configuration in a TO-252 (D-Pak) surface-mount package. The device supports a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 60 V and a total average forward rectified current of 20 A, with 10 A per diode. It exhibits an ultra-low forward voltage drop of 0.40 V at 5 A and 0.51 V at 10 A when the junction temperature is 125 °C. The component withstands a peak forward surge current of 100 A per diode and operates within a junction and storage temperature range of -40 to +150 °C.
