VX6045C-M3/P

Diode Arrays Overview

The Vishay VX6045C-M3/P is a dual high voltage Trench MOS Barrier Schottky (TMBS) rectifier in a TO-220AB package. It features a common cathode configuration with two independent diodes, each rated for a maximum average forward rectified current of 30 A and a peak forward surge current of 320 A. The device supports a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 45 V and operates within a junction temperature range of -40 °C to +150 °C. Typical instantaneous forward voltage is 0.40 V at 5 A and 25 °C, dropping to 0.28 V at 5 A and 125 °C. Reverse leakage current is typically 0.9 mA at 45 V and 25 °C.

Diode Arrays Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering code suffix against the manufacturer's official documentation to confirm compliance requirements. The base part number without suffixes may differ from the M3 or HM3 variants regarding halogen content and automotive qualification status. Ensure the requested package matches the physical dimensions specified in the datasheet before finalizing procurement orders.

Diode Arrays Selection Notes

Select this component when low conduction losses are critical for system efficiency. The TMBS technology offers superior performance compared to standard Schottky rectifiers at similar voltage ratings. Consider the thermal resistance characteristics and derating curves to ensure adequate heat dissipation under maximum load conditions in the target application environment.
