Diode Arrays Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix STRR against official documentation to confirm right-oriented tape and reel packaging. Confirm RoHS compliance and halogen-free status as indicated by the M3 suffix. Validate that the 80 V rating matches the system requirements before procurement.

Diode Arrays Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring low forward voltage drop and high-frequency operation. Ensure the thermal design accommodates the specified junction temperature range of -55 °C to +175 °C. Verify that the package dimensions conform to the D2PAK outline for PCB layout compatibility.

Diode Arrays Part Context

This part belongs to the VS-16CTQ...S-M3 series of high-performance Schottky rectifiers from Vishay Semiconductors. The series includes variants with different voltage ratings such as 60 V and 100 V. All parts share the same 16 A total current rating and utilize the D2PAK surface-mount package for standardized integration.

Diode Arrays Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same series include VS-16CTQ060STRR-M3 for 60 V applications and VS-16CTQ100STRR-M3 for 100 V applications. These alternatives maintain identical current ratings and package configurations while differing only in reverse voltage capabilities.
