VS-MBR2545CT-1-M3

Diode Arrays Overview

The Vishay VS-MBR2545CT-1-M3 is a high-performance Schottky rectifier featuring a dual anode common cathode configuration. It provides a maximum average forward current of 15 A per leg and supports a repetitive peak reverse voltage of 45 V. The device utilizes a TO-262AA (TO-262) surface-mount package with a base common cathode connection. Key electrical characteristics include a maximum forward voltage drop of 0.82 V at 30 A and 25 °C, and a non-repetitive peak surge current rating of 1060 A. It operates reliably up to a maximum junction temperature of 150 °C.

Diode Arrays Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against official documentation to confirm compliance status and packaging type. Confirm that the component meets RoHS directives and halogen-free requirements as specified in the datasheet. Ensure the selected variant matches the required thermal and electrical ratings for the intended application environment before finalizing procurement.

Diode Arrays Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual Schottky rectifier with a common cathode is required for high-frequency applications. The TO-262AA package offers a compact solution suitable for surface-mount assembly. Consider the 150 °C junction temperature capability for designs requiring operation in thermally constrained environments or under high load conditions.

Diode Arrays Part Context

This part belongs to the Vishay MBR series of high-performance Schottky rectifiers. The series includes variants with different voltage ratings and current capacities, such as the 35 V rated counterparts. These devices are engineered for efficiency in DC-DC conversion and power management circuits where low forward voltage drop and fast switching speeds are critical design parameters.

Diode Arrays Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements within the same family include the VS-MBRB2545CT-M3, which shares identical electrical specifications but utilizes a D2PAK (TO-263AB) package instead of the TO-262AA form factor.
