Product details
Overview
B250Q-13-F from Diodes Incorporated is a 2.0A, 50V surface-mount Schottky barrier rectifier in SMB package, with 0.70V max forward voltage at 2.0A and 0.5mA max reverse leakage at 25°C, designed for polarity protection, freewheeling, and blocking functions in low-voltage DC/DC converters and automotive power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the B250Q-13-F datasheet, B250Q-13-F pinout, B250Q-13-F application, or B250Q-13-F equivalent, key selection criteria include its AEC-Q101 qualification, 50A non-repetitive surge rating, RoHS-compliant matte tin plating, and thermal resistance of 20°C/W (junction-to-lead) for high-reliability board-level power management.
Technical Context
This Schottky rectifier uses guard ring die construction to suppress transient-induced junction breakdown, enabling robust operation under inductive load switching transients. Its low VF and fast recovery (<10ns) support high-frequency operation in SMPS and synchronous rectification circuits.
The device operates across –65°C to +150°C, with thermal derating beginning above 75°C ambient for SMB-mounted units. Total capacitance is 200pF at 40V reverse bias, limiting high-frequency noise coupling in sensitive analog rails.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 50 V - Maximum repetitive reverse voltage before avalanche conduction begins; sets safe DC blocking margin in 24V automotive systems. |
| IO(AV) | 2.0 A - Continuous average forward current at TA = +25°C; requires thermal pad design for sustained 2A loads above 75°C ambient. |
| VF(max) | 0.70 V @ 2.0A - Forward drop directly impacts conduction loss (1.4W at 2A); enables >92% efficiency in 5V–12V buck converter outputs. |
| IR(max) | 0.5 mA @ 25°C - Low leakage preserves battery standby time in always-on modules; rises to 20mA at +100°C but remains manageable. |
| IFSM | 50 A @ 8.3ms - Withstands motor startup surges and hot-plug transients without failure; critical for engine control unit (ECU) input protection. |
| RθJL | 20 °C/W - Junction-to-lead thermal resistance enables direct PCB copper pour heat sinking; reduces thermal stress vs. SMA-packaged variants. |
Pinout & Package
SMB (Surface Mount Body) package: molded plastic case, UL 94V-0 rated, cathode marked by band or notch on top surface; terminals are matte tin-plated for lead-free reflow compatibility.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward current entry point | Connected to lower-potential side (e.g., ground return or switch node); must route with low-inductance trace to minimize ringing. |
| Cathode | Forward current exit / reverse blocking terminal | Marked by band; ties to positive rail or inductor output; determines polarity protection direction and freewheel path orientation. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Guard ring die construction | Suppresses edge breakdown during voltage transients, extending lifetime in automotive load-dump environments (ISO 7637-2 Pulse 5a). |
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Validated for automotive-grade reliability including temperature cycling, HTRB, and ESD (HBM ≥2kV), supporting Tier-1 ECU designs. |
| Lead-free & halogen-free | Meets RoHS 3 and JEDEC J-STD-020 Level 1 moisture sensitivity; eliminates post-reflow cleaning and supports green manufacturing. |
| 50A surge rating | Handles single-event inrush currents from capacitive inputs or relay coils without parametric shift or bond-wire fusing. |
Applications
| Automotive Body Control Module (BCM) | Industrial DC/DC Converter Output Stage |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Reverse polarity protection on 12V supply input to BCM microcontroller and CAN transceiver circuitry. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Unidirectional blocking diode placed between connector and bulk capacitor; prevents damage during battery jump-start misconnection. Use Value: 0.70V VF limits voltage drop to <0.5% of nominal 12V rail, preserving brown-out margins while surviving 50A surge events. | Use Scenario: Freewheel diode in non-synchronous 48V-to-12V buck converter powering PLC I/O modules. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Provides low-loss current path during high-side MOSFET off-time; complements 100kHz switching frequency. Use Value: 200pF CT minimizes switching node ringing; 20°C/W RθJL allows 2A continuous operation with minimal heatsinking on 2oz copper. |
| USB-C Power Delivery Adapter | Smart Meter Power Supply |
Use Scenario: Output rectification in 20V auxiliary flyback stage supplying USB-C PD controller and level-shifters. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-efficiency rectifier replacing slower PN diodes; reduces conduction loss and thermal footprint. Use Value: 0.5mA IR at 25°C ensures <10μW standby dissipation, meeting Energy Star Level VI no-load requirements. | Use Scenario: Polarity protection and surge clamping at AC/DC adapter input of three-phase smart meter. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Blocks reverse connection and absorbs line transients via guard ring structure. Use Value: AEC-Q101 qualification guarantees 15-year field life under cyclic thermal stress in outdoor meter enclosures. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Schottky rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SB250-E3/54 (Vishay) | Same 50V VRRM, 2A IO, but VF = 0.85V @ 2A; SMB package; no AEC-Q101 qualification. | Lacks automotive qualification; higher VF increases conduction loss by ~0.3W at 2A. | Select only for cost-sensitive industrial consumer products where AEC-Q101 is not mandated. |
| SS25HE3/57T (Vishay) | 50V VRRM, 2A IO, VF = 0.72V @ 2A; SMB; AEC-Q101 qualified; IR = 0.5mA @ 25°C. | Identical electrical specs and qualification; differs only in marking and tape/reel packaging (3,000 vs. 3,000). | Drop-in replacement with identical thermal and reliability performance; verify reel orientation compatibility. |
Compared with SB250-E3/54, B250Q-13-F delivers lower conduction loss and automotive qualification; versus SS25HE3/57T, it offers identical performance with Diodes Inc.'s supply chain continuity and PPAP documentation support.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature for B250Q-13-F?
The B250Q-13-F has an operating junction temperature range of –65°C to +150°C. When mounted on an FR-4 PCB with recommended pad layout, its ambient temperature derating begins at 75°C, reaching zero current capability at 150°C ambient per Fig. 5 in DS38433 Rev. 3-2.
Is B250Q-13-F compatible with lead-free reflow soldering processes?
Yes. B250Q-13-F features matte tin-plated terminals and is qualified to JEDEC J-STD-020 Level 1 moisture sensitivity. It supports standard lead-free reflow profiles up to 260°C peak temperature, with no pre-bake required prior to assembly.
Does B250Q-13-F have a cathode marking on the package?
Yes. The SMB package uses a visible cathode band on the top surface, consistent with industry-standard polarity identification. This band aligns with the cathode terminal and must be oriented toward the positive rail in blocking or freewheel configurations.
How does the guard ring construction improve reliability?
The guard ring die structure surrounds the active junction to distribute electric field gradients during reverse-bias transients, preventing localized avalanche and premature failure. This extends operational life in automotive load-dump and ISO 7637-2 pulse scenarios where voltage spikes exceed VRRM momentarily.
