Product details
Overview
B340AXS-13 from Diodes Incorporated is a 40 V, 3 A trench Schottky barrier rectifier in SMA-FS package, optimized for low forward voltage (0.50 V max at 3 A, 25°C) and low leakage (200 µA max at 40 V, 25°C), used in DC-DC converters, freewheeling paths, and reverse polarity protection circuits.
For engineers reviewing the B340AXS-13 datasheet, B340AXS-13 pinout, B340AXS-13 application, or B340AXS-13 equivalent, this device delivers soft fast switching, high efficiency in compact power conversion stages, and RoHS-compliant lead-free plating with UL 94V-0 molding compound.
Technical Context
This Schottky rectifier uses trench-based silicon structure to reduce forward voltage drop while maintaining low reverse leakage across -55°C to +150°C operating range. Its 285 pF capacitance at 4 V reverse bias supports high-frequency operation in SMPS and DC-DC topologies.
Thermal resistance is specified as 55°C/W junction-to-case and 145°C/W junction-to-ambient on standard FR-4 PCB layout, enabling stable 3 A average current handling up to 100°C case temperature per derating curve.
Key Specifications

| IO | 3 A - Continuous average forward current capability at 25°C ambient |
| VF (max) | 0.50 V - Forward voltage drop at 3 A, 25°C; enables <1.5 W conduction loss |
| IR (max) | 200 µA - Reverse leakage at 40 V, 25°C; ensures low standby power loss |
| CT | 285 pF - Junction capacitance at 4 V, 1 MHz; supports >1 MHz switching in buck converters |
| RθJA | 145 °C/W - Thermal resistance to ambient on standard FR-4 board; defines heatsinking requirement |

Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Trench Schottky architecture | Reduces VF by ~15% vs. planar Schottky equivalents at same current density |
| Soft, fast switching | Minimizes EMI generation during diode turn-off in high-frequency converters |

Applications
| DC-DC Converter | Freewheeling Diode |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Synchronous buck converter output stage with 5–12 V input, 3.3–5 V output, switching at 500 kHz–1 MHz. IC Role / Device Role: Freewheeling path for inductor current during high-side FET off-time. Use Value: 0.50 V VF minimizes conduction loss; 285 pF CT avoids resonance with output filter inductance. | Use Scenario: Inductive load drive (e.g., solenoid, relay coil) requiring energy recirculation. IC Role / Device Role: Provides low-loss return path for stored magnetic energy. Use Value: Soft recovery limits voltage overshoot; 65 A IFSM handles inductive kick without failure. |
| Reverse Polarity Protection | Blocking Diode |
Use Scenario: 12 V automotive accessory input with risk of battery cable reversal. IC Role / Device Role: Series-connected anode-in configuration blocks reverse current flow. Use Value: 200 µA IR at 25°C ensures <2.4 mW standby dissipation; 40 V VRRM covers load dump transients. | Use Scenario: OR-ing diode in dual-power-supply redundancy system (e.g., main + backup 5 V rails). IC Role / Device Role: Prevents backfeed between supplies while passing forward current. Use Value: Low VF reduces voltage drop across diode; 3 A IO supports typical embedded system loads. |
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 40 V VRRM, 3 A IO, but planar Schottky; VF = 0.55 V max at 3 A | Slightly higher conduction loss; less suitable for thermally constrained layouts | Select if cost sensitivity outweighs 50 mV VF advantage and thermal margin is ample |
| MBR340 (ON Semiconductor) | 40 V VRRM, 3 A IO, DO-214AC package; VF = 0.52 V max at 3 A; RθJA = 70°C/W | Larger footprint; better thermal performance but incompatible with SMA-FS board space | Select when board-level thermal management allows larger package and higher mounting reliability is required |
Compared with SS34 and MBR340, B340AXS-13 offers the lowest VF in SMA-FS form factor and best high-frequency capacitance profile, making it optimal for space-constrained, high-efficiency DC-DC designs where thermal resistance to ambient is managed via PCB copper area.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature for continuous operation?
The B340AXS-13 has an operating junction temperature range of -55°C to +150°C. Continuous operation at 150°C requires strict adherence to thermal design rules: junction-to-ambient thermal resistance must remain ≤145°C/W on specified FR-4 layout, and power dissipation must be limited to avoid exceeding 150°C under worst-case ambient and load conditions.
Is B340AXS-13 qualified for automotive applications?
No - B340AXS-13 is commercial-grade and not AEC-Q101 qualified. Diodes offers automotive-qualified variants (e.g., B340A-Q) with PPAP documentation, IATF 16949 manufacturing, and extended temperature screening; those parts carry explicit "-Q" suffix and separate qualification reports.
How does the SMA-FS package differ from standard SMA?
SMA-FS features a flattened shoulder and tighter dimensional tolerances (e.g., body height 1.10 mm max vs. 2.20 mm for SMA), enabling improved coplanarity and reflow yield on fine-pitch PCBs. It retains identical pinout and thermal interface but is optimized for automated assembly in high-density power modules.
Can B340AXS-13 replace a standard 1N5822 in existing designs?
Yes - with caveats: both are 3 A, 40 V Schottky rectifiers, but B340AXS-13 has lower VF (0.50 V vs. 0.55 V), smaller SMA-FS footprint (vs. DO-201AD), and higher CT (285 pF vs. ~220 pF). Layout redesign is required; verify EMI and thermal performance in final application due to package and capacitance differences.
