VS-50WQ04FNTRR-M3

Single Diodes Overview

The Vishay VS-50WQ04FNTRR-M3 is a silicon Schottky rectifier diode designed for surface-mount applications. It features a single configuration with a maximum repetitive reverse voltage of 40 V and an average forward current rating of 5.5 A. The device exhibits a low forward voltage drop, typically 630 mV at 5.5 A, and a non-repetitive peak surge current capability of 550 A. It operates within a junction temperature range of -55°C to +175°C and utilizes the DPAK (TO-252AA) package.

Single Diodes Feature Summary

• Utilizes silicon Schottky technology to achieve low forward voltage drop and high switching efficiency.
• Features a rugged construction capable of withstanding high non-repetitive surge currents.
• Designed for compact surface-mount layouts using the standard DPAK footprint.

Single Diodes Applications

• Free-wheeling diodes in power conversion circuits
• Switching power supply output rectification
• DC-DC converter input or output stages

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'M3' indicates lead-free plating compliant with RoHS standards. Confirm the 'RR' designation corresponds to the reel packaging format required for automated assembly processes. Ensure the component matches the DPAK physical dimensions specified in the official datasheet before integration into the design.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a low forward voltage drop is critical for system efficiency. The 40 V rating suits low-voltage DC bus applications. Verify that the thermal management strategy supports the 5.5 A continuous current rating within the intended operating ambient temperature range.

Single Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to Vishay's 50WQ series of surface-mount Schottky rectifiers. The series is characterized by its balance of current handling capacity and small physical footprint. It serves as a modern alternative to through-hole rectifiers in space-constrained electronic designs requiring reliable high-frequency switching performance.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with Vishay VS-50WQ04FNTR-M3 for identical electrical specifications and pinout compatibility. Verify package tolerance alignment if substituting with other manufacturers' equivalents rated for 40 V and 5.5 A in TO-252AA packages.
