Product details
Overview
B360A-13 from Diodes Incorporated is a 60 V, 3.0 A surface-mount Schottky barrier rectifier in SMA package, featuring 0.70 V max forward voltage at 3 A and 0.5 mA max reverse leakage at rated VRRM, optimized for DC-DC converters and polarity protection circuits.
For engineers reviewing the B360A-13 datasheet, B360A-13 pinout, B360A-13 application, or B360A-13 equivalent, key selection criteria include reverse voltage rating, thermal resistance (RθJA = 100 °C/W on glass epoxy), junction temperature range (–55 to +150 °C), and RoHS-compliant lead-free plating.
Technical Context
This Schottky rectifier uses guard ring die construction to suppress transient voltage spikes and improve reliability under repetitive surge conditions. Its low forward voltage drop minimizes conduction loss in high-frequency switching topologies.
The device operates across –55 °C to +150 °C with a maximum non-repetitive peak forward surge current of 80 A (8.3 ms half-sine), and exhibits 200 pF typical junction capacitance at 4 V reverse bias and 1 MHz.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 60 V - blocks up to 60 V reverse voltage without breakdown |
| IO | 3.0 A - average rectified output current at TT = +100 °C |
| VF(max) | 0.70 V @ 3 A - limits conduction loss to ≤2.1 W at full load |
| IR(max) | 0.5 mA @ 60 V - ensures low standby power loss in blocking state |
| RθJA | 100 °C/W - thermal resistance on glass epoxy substrate, enabling compact layout |
| CT | 200 pF @ 4 V, 1 MHz - low junction capacitance supports >1 MHz switching |
| IFSM | 80 A - withstands short-duration surges common in DC-DC start-up or load dump |
Pinout & Package
Package: SMA (Surface Mount Axial), molded plastic case with matte-tin plated terminals, cathode band polarity marking, UL 94V-0 flammability rating, and moisture sensitivity level 1.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Current entry terminal during forward conduction | Connected to lower-potential side (e.g., ground or return path) in freewheeling or polarity protection |
| Cathode | Current exit terminal during forward conduction | Marked with band; connects to positive rail or switch node; defines unidirectional current flow |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Schottky rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SS36-E3/57T (Vishay) | Same 60 V VRRM, 3 A IO, but VF = 0.75 V (max @ 3 A); RθJA = 110 °C/W | Slightly higher conduction loss; less suitable for thermally constrained layouts | Select if legacy footprint compatibility with DO-214AC is required |
| MBR360RLG (ON Semiconductor) | 60 V VRRM, 3 A IO, VF = 0.72 V (typ @ 3 A); AEC-Q101 qualified; same SMA package | Near-identical performance; minor VF variation has negligible impact on efficiency | Drop-in alternative with identical thermal and mechanical interface |
Compared with SS36-E3/57T and MBR360RLG, B360A-13 offers marginally lower VF and superior thermal resistance on glass epoxy, making it preferred for space-constrained, high-efficiency DC-DC designs where junction temperature must stay below +135 °C.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature for continuous operation?
The B360A-13 supports continuous operation from –55 °C to +150 °C junction temperature. Derating begins above +100 °C ambient per the forward current derating curve (Fig. 6), where IO drops linearly to zero at +150 °C ambient on glass epoxy substrate.
Is B360A-13 suitable for automotive applications?
Yes - B360A-13 is qualified to AEC-Q101 standards, including temperature cycling, high-temperature reverse bias, and ESD testing. It is rated for under-hood environments and used in automotive body control modules and infotainment power supplies.
How does the SMA package affect thermal performance?
The SMA package delivers RθJA = 100 °C/W on glass epoxy (2×3 mm copper pad), significantly better than standard FR-4 layouts (140 °C/W). This allows higher sustained current in compact PCB areas without forced airflow or heatsinking.
What does the "-13" suffix indicate in B360A-13?
The "-13" denotes tape-and-reel packaging: 5,000 units per reel, compatible with automated SMT placement equipment. It does not indicate revision or performance variant - electrical and thermal specs match the base B360A device.
