Product details
Overview
B140B-13-F from Diodes Incorporated is a 40 V, 1.0 A surface-mount Schottky barrier rectifier in SMB package, with maximum forward voltage of 0.5 V at 1.0 A and reverse leakage current ≤0.5 mA at rated VR and +25°C. It delivers low power loss for polarity protection and freewheeling in DC/DC converters and USB power circuits.
For engineers reviewing the B140B-13-F datasheet, B140B-13-F pinout, B140B-13-F application, or B140B-13-F equivalent, key selection criteria include its 40 V reverse voltage rating, 30 A non-repetitive surge capability, thermal resistance of 20 °C/W, RoHS-compliant matte tin plating, and suitability for automated SMT assembly.
Technical Context
This Schottky rectifier uses guard ring die construction to enhance transient immunity and supports high-frequency switching up to several MHz due to low junction capacitance (110 pF at 4 V). Its low VF enables efficient operation in low-voltage (<5 V) power rails where conduction loss dominates thermal design.
The device operates across –65 °C to +150 °C and maintains stable IR performance up to +100 °C (≤10 mA), making it suitable for thermally constrained environments such as enclosed industrial controllers and automotive body electronics.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 40 V - Maximum repetitive reverse voltage before breakdown; sets safe operating limit in 24 V systems with margin. |
| IO | 1.0 A @ TT = +130°C - Continuous average forward current under thermal-limited PCB mounting conditions. |
| VF Max | 0.5 V @ IF = 1.0 A - Low conduction loss reduces heat generation in compact power stages. |
| IR Max | 0.5 mA @ VR = 40 V, TA = +25°C - Minimal leakage preserves battery life in always-on circuits. |
| IFSM | 30 A (8.3 ms half-sine) - Withstands inrush and fault currents without failure in input protection designs. |
| RθJT | 20 °C/W - Junction-to-terminal thermal resistance defines heatsinking requirement on standard 5 mm² copper pad. |
| CT | 110 pF @ VR = 4 V, f = 1 MHz - Low capacitance minimizes switching noise and EMI in high-frequency SMPS. |
Pinout & Package
Package: SMB (Surface-Mount Small Outline Diode), molded plastic, UL 94V-0 rated, cathode indicated by band or notch on top surface. Terminal plating: lead-free matte tin, solderable per MIL-STD-202 Method 208.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward current entry point | Connected to lower-potential side (e.g., ground or return path) in polarity protection; must handle full load current and surge. |
| Cathode | Forward current exit point | Connected to higher-potential side (e.g., input rail); marked by band; carries output current and blocks reverse voltage. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Guard ring die construction | Improves ESD and surge robustness without external TVS, reducing BOM count in portable power inputs. |
| Low VF (0.5 V) | Reduces conduction loss by ~40% vs. comparable silicon rectifiers, enabling smaller thermal pads in space-constrained layouts. |
| 30 A IFSM rating | Supports hot-plug and capacitor charging events in USB-C PD and PoE-powered devices without derating. |
| RoHS & Halogen-free compliance | Meets IPC-1752A material declaration requirements for automotive and medical OEMs requiring green sourcing. |
Applications
| USB Power Delivery Input Protection | DC/DC Converter Freewheeling Diode |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Protects downstream circuitry from reverse polarity during USB-C cable insertion or adapter swap. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Polarity protection diode placed between connector and input capacitor. Use Value: 0.5 V VF limits voltage drop to <2% in 5 V systems, preserving regulation margin while blocking reverse current. |
Use Scenario: Provides low-loss current path during MOSFET off-time in buck converter output stage. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Freewheeling diode synchronized with high-side switch dead time. Use Value: 110 pF CT and fast recovery minimize switching losses and ringing at 500 kHz–1 MHz operation. |
| Industrial Sensor Node Power Rail | Automotive Body Control Module (BCM) |
Use Scenario: Isolates backup battery from main supply in wireless sensor nodes with intermittent wake-up cycles. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Reverse-blocking diode in OR-ing configuration for dual-supply redundancy. Use Value: 0.5 mA IR at +25°C ensures <1 µA standby drain-critical for multi-year battery life in LoRaWAN nodes. |
Use Scenario: Suppresses inductive kickback from solenoid drivers (e.g., door locks, mirror actuators). IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Recirculating diode across 12 V inductive loads. Use Value: 30 A IFSM withstands peak transients from 100 ms pulse-width modulated solenoids without degradation. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Schottky rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SS34 (Vishay) | Same SMB package, 40 V VRRM, but VF = 0.55 V @ 3 A; higher IF rating (3 A) but larger die size increases RθJT. | Preferred in higher-current (>1.5 A) freewheeling roles; less optimal for ultra-low-VF precision 1 A rails. | Select SS34 only when system requires >1.2 A continuous current or higher surge margin beyond 30 A. |
| SB140 (ON Semiconductor) | SMB package, 40 V VRRM, VF = 0.52 V @ 1 A, IR = 0.6 mA @ 40 V - slightly higher leakage and VF than B140B-13-F. | Acceptable in cost-sensitive consumer power supplies where 0.02 V VF penalty is tolerable. | Choose SB140 if second-source qualification is required and minor efficiency trade-off is acceptable. |
Compared with SS34 and SB140, B140B-13-F offers the lowest VF (0.5 V) and tightest IR spec (0.5 mA) in the 40 V/1 A SMB class, delivering superior efficiency in thermally restricted or battery-critical applications.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature for B140B-13-F?
The absolute maximum junction temperature is +150 °C, with continuous operation supported up to +130 °C terminal temperature. Derating begins above +130 °C per Figure 6 in DS13002, where IO drops linearly to zero at +150 °C under standard PCB mounting (5 mm² copper pad).
Is B140B-13-F suitable for automotive applications?
B140B-13-F is not AEC-Q101 qualified and is intended for commercial-grade use. For automotive applications, Diodes offers AEC-Q101-qualified variants like B140BQ-13-F; consult your local Diodes representative for PPAP-capable alternatives meeting IATF 16949 requirements.
How does the SMB package differ from SMA for B140B-13-F?
B140B-13-F uses the SMB package (larger than SMA), offering higher thermal dissipation (RθJT = 20 °C/W vs. ~25 °C/W for SMA) and 3,000-piece tape-and-reel packaging. Dimensions are 4.06–4.57 mm × 5.00–5.59 mm × 1.52 mm max height, versus SMA's 4.00–4.60 mm × 2.29–2.92 mm footprint.
Can B140B-13-F replace a 1N5819 in existing designs?
Yes - B140B-13-F matches 1N5819's 40 V VRRM and 1 A IO rating, but improves VF (0.5 V vs. typical 0.475–0.575 V) and reduces IR (0.5 mA vs. 1 mA). Layout compatibility is confirmed: SMB footprint aligns with common 1N5819 SMB footprints, though pad dimensions should be verified against Diodes' recommended layout (C = 4.30 mm, X1 = 6.80 mm).
