VIT4060C-M3/4W

Diode Arrays Overview

The VIT4060C-M3/4W is a dual TMBS (Trench MOS Barrier Schottky) rectifier manufactured by Vishay General Semiconductor - Diodes Division. It features a common cathode configuration with two diodes per package. The device supports a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 60 V and an average forward rectified current of 20 A per diode. Key electrical characteristics include a peak forward surge current of 240 A, a typical instantaneous forward voltage of 0.32 V at 5.0 A, and a maximum junction temperature of 150 °C. The component utilizes the TO-262AA (I2PAK) through-hole package.

Diode Arrays Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix M3/4W to confirm compliance with halogen-free requirements and RoHS directives. Ensure the TO-262AA package variant matches the intended PCB footprint and mounting torque specifications. Confirm that the operating junction temperature range of -40 to +150 °C aligns with the thermal design of the target application environment.

Diode Arrays Selection Notes

Select this component when low forward voltage drop is critical for minimizing conduction losses in high-current applications. The TO-262AA package offers distinct thermal and mechanical properties compared to the TO-220AB variant; verify the lead length and case dimensions against the assembly constraints. Consider the 240 A surge current rating for circuit protection requirements.

Diode Arrays Part Context

This part belongs to the VT4060C/VIT4060C family of dual TMBS rectifiers. The 'VIT' prefix specifically denotes the TO-262AA (I2PAK) long-lead through-hole package, distinguishing it from the standard TO-220AB version. Both variants share identical electrical ratings and internal die characteristics.

Diode Arrays FAQ

What is the difference between the VT4060C and VIT4060C?

The primary difference is the physical package. The VT4060C uses the TO-220AB package, while the VIT4060C uses the TO-262AA (I2PAK) package. Electrical specifications remain identical.

Does the M3 suffix indicate a change in function?

No, the M3 suffix indicates that the part is halogen-free and RoHS-compliant. It does not alter the electrical performance or pinout of the device.
