VE1045C-E3/45

Diode Arrays Overview

The VE1045C-E3/45 is a Schottky barrier diode manufactured by Vishay General Semiconductor. It utilizes Trench MOS technology to achieve low forward voltage and high efficiency. The device features a common cathode dual configuration housed in a TO-220AB through-hole package. Key electrical parameters include a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage (Vrrm) of 45 V and a maximum average forward rectified current (If) of 10 A per element. The typical forward voltage (Vf) is 630 mV at 10 A, with a maximum non-repetitive peak forward surge current (Ifsm) of 390 A. Operating temperature ranges from -65°C to +150°C junction temperature.
