Product details
Overview
APD360VPL-G1 from Diodes Incorporated is a dual anode, single cathode Schottky barrier rectifier in DO-27 (L) package, rated for 60 V repetitive peak reverse voltage and 3 A average forward current, with 0.68 V max forward voltage at 3 A and 0.5 mA max reverse leakage at +25°C, used in high-frequency DC-DC converters and low-voltage inverters.
For engineers reviewing the APD360VPL-G1 datasheet, APD360VPL-G1 pinout, APD360VPL-G1 application, or APD360VPL-G1 equivalent, key selection criteria include its low VF for efficiency-critical power stages, 80 A non-repetitive surge rating for transient robustness, +125°C junction temperature capability, and RoHS-compliant "Green" packaging with halogen/antimony-free molding compound.
Technical Context
The APD360VPL-G1 integrates two Schottky diodes sharing a common cathode terminal, enabling dual-path rectification or freewheeling in synchronous buck or flyback topologies. Its low junction capacitance (~40 pF at 4 V) and fast recovery support operation above 100 kHz without significant switching loss or EMI generation.
Designed for medium-voltage, high-frequency power conversion, it leverages guard-ring die structure to enhance ruggedness against voltage transients and thermal stress. The DO-27 (L) package provides extended leads for improved thermal dissipation over standard DO-27 while maintaining compatibility with through-hole assembly processes.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 60 V - Withstands up to 60 V repetitive reverse voltage without breakdown, suitable for 48 V input rails with margin. |
| IF(AV) | 3.0 A - Sustains 3 A average forward current under specified thermal conditions, supporting mid-power converter outputs. |
| VF (max) | 0.68 V @ 3 A - Minimizes conduction loss and heat generation in high-current paths, improving system efficiency. |
| IR (max) | 0.5 mA @ +25°C - Low leakage preserves efficiency in standby and light-load operation of power supplies. |
| IFSM | 80 A @ 8.3 ms - Handles short-duration inrush or fault currents without failure, enhancing reliability in dynamic loads. |
| TJ Range | –65°C to +125°C - Enables deployment in industrial environments with wide ambient temperature swings. |
Pinout & Package
APD360VPL-G1 is housed in a DO-27 (L) molded plastic package with axial leads, featuring a cathode band marking on the body. The device has two anode terminals (A1, A2) and one shared cathode (K), configured as a dual-anode, single-cathode Schottky rectifier.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode 1 (Lead 1) | Input path 1 | Accepts forward current from first power rail or switch node; electrically isolated from Anode 2. |
| Anode 2 (Lead 2) | Input path 2 | Accepts forward current from second independent source or phase; enables dual-input or interleaved operation. |
| Cathode (Banded end) | Common output | Single low-impedance return path for both anodes; simplifies PCB layout and reduces parasitic inductance. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low forward voltage | 0.68 V max at 3 A - Reduces power loss by ~30% vs. comparable silicon diodes, lowering thermal design burden. |
| Guard-ring protected die | Enhanced edge termination - Improves resistance to surface contamination and mechanical stress-induced breakdown. |
| High surge current rating | 80 A non-repetitive peak - Supports reliable operation during cold-start, load dump, or short-circuit events. |
| RoHS & "Green" compliant | Pb-free, halogen-free, antimony-free - Meets EU RoHS 3 and environmental compliance requirements for global OEM shipments. |

FAQ
Is APD360VPL-G1 still in active production?
No - Diodes Incorporated officially discontinued APD360VPL-G1 as of March 2018. It is marked "OBSOLETE – PART DISCONTINUED" in the official datasheet (DS36968 Rev. 4). Aetrix Electronics maintains limited legacy stock with full traceability and supports last-time buys for ongoing production runs.
What is the difference between APD360VPL-G1 and APD360VP-G1?
Both share identical electrical specifications and die, but differ in package: APD360VPL-G1 uses the longer-leaded DO-27 (L) variant (19.5–20.5 mm lead length), while APD360VP-G1 uses standard DO-27 (25.4 mm min lead length). DO-27 (L) offers better thermal relief in high-power through-hole layouts.
Can APD360VPL-G1 replace a single-diode Schottky like SB360?
No - APD360VPL-G1 contains two anodes and one cathode, forming a dual-diode configuration. Replacing SB360 (single anode/cathode) requires circuit redesign to utilize both anodes or paralleling them with external isolation, which compromises surge handling and thermal balance.
Does APD360VPL-G1 meet automotive AEC-Q101 requirements?
No - APD360VPL-G1 is not AEC-Q101 qualified. Its datasheet specifies only industrial-grade temperature range (–65°C to +125°C) and does not list qualification test reports, stress profiles, or automotive-specific reliability data required for automotive use.
