Product details
Overview
B370Q-13-F from Diodes Incorporated is a 70 V, 3.0 A high-voltage Schottky barrier rectifier in SMC package, featuring 0.79 V max forward voltage at 3.0 A and 0.5 mA max reverse leakage at rated VR, designed for polarity protection and freewheeling in low-voltage DC/DC converters and automotive power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the B370Q-13-F datasheet, B370Q-13-F pinout, B370Q-13-F application, or B370Q-13-F equivalent, key selection criteria include peak repetitive reverse voltage (70 V), average rectified current (3.0 A), thermal resistance junction-to-case (24 °C/W), surge rating (100 A), and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive-grade reliability.
Technical Context
This Schottky rectifier uses guard ring die construction to enhance transient immunity and suppress avalanche-induced failure during inductive switching events. Its low VF (0.79 V max @ 3.0 A) and low CT (100 pF @ 4 V) support high-frequency operation up to several MHz in synchronous rectification and flyback snubber circuits.
Rated for -55°C to +150°C operating temperature and qualified to AEC-Q101, it delivers stable performance under automotive thermal cycling and humidity exposure. The SMC package provides 24 °C/W junction-to-case thermal resistance, enabling 3.0 A continuous conduction with minimal heatsinking in compact PCB layouts.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 70 V - Maximum repetitive reverse blocking voltage; defines safe DC or peak AC reverse bias limit before breakdown |
| IO | 3.0 A - Average rectified forward current at TT = +90°C; sets continuous power handling capability |
| VF max | 0.79 V @ 3.0 A, 25°C - Forward voltage drop limiting conduction loss and self-heating in high-efficiency designs |
| IR max | 0.5 mA @ 70 V, 25°C - Reverse leakage current defining off-state power loss and signal integrity in high-impedance nodes |
| IFSM | 100 A @ 8.3 ms - Non-repetitive surge rating supporting inrush and fault-current tolerance in power-up and short-circuit events |
| RθJC | 24 °C/W - Junction-to-case thermal resistance enabling direct thermal path to heatsink or copper pour for thermal management |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Schottky rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SB370-E3/54 (Vishay) | Same 70 V VRRM and 3.0 A IO, but VF = 0.85 V max @ 3.0 A; RθJC = 28 °C/W; no AEC-Q101 qualification | Not approved for automotive systems requiring PPAP or change control; suitable for industrial/commercial only | Select if cost-sensitive and automotive qualification is unnecessary; verify thermal margin due to higher VF and RθJC |
| SS370H (ON Semiconductor) | 70 V VRRM, 3.0 A IO, VF = 0.75 V typ @ 3.0 A; AEC-Q101 qualified; RθJC = 22 °C/W; SMC package | Lower typical VF improves light-load efficiency; tighter thermal resistance enables higher ambient operation | Prefer for new automotive designs where 0.04 V lower VF and 2 °C/W better RθJC provide measurable thermal headroom |
Compared with SB370-E3/54, B370Q-13-F offers AEC-Q101 compliance and lower VF max; versus SS370H, it trades 0.04 V higher VF max for broader distributor availability and identical packaging compatibility-both critical for production continuity in Tier-1 supply chains.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature for continuous operation of B370Q-13-F?
The B370Q-13-F has an operating junction temperature range of -55°C to +150°C. For continuous 3.0 A operation, case temperature must be maintained ≤ +90°C per the derating curve in DS38667 Rev. 4-2, Figure 4. At +90°C case, junction temperature reaches ~114°C assuming RθJC = 24 °C/W, remaining within safe limits.
Is B370Q-13-F compatible with lead-free reflow soldering processes?
Yes. B370Q-13-F features matte tin-plated terminals and is rated for lead-free reflow per JEDEC J-STD-020, with moisture sensitivity level 1. It withstands peak temperatures up to 260°C for 30 seconds and is fully compatible with standard Pb-free SAC305 profiles without delamination or plating degradation.
Does B370Q-13-F require a heatsink for 3.0 A DC operation?
No external heatsink is required if PCB layout provides ≥ 1 in² (6.45 cm²) of 2 oz copper connected to both terminals. With RθJC = 24 °C/W and RθCA ≈ 38 °C/W on FR-4 (per datasheet Note 5), junction rise is ~186°C at 3.0 A - exceeding limit. Therefore, thermal pad design per Diodes' recommended footprint (C = 6.90 mm, G = 4.40 mm) is mandatory to achieve safe operation.
How does the guard ring structure improve reliability in automotive applications?
The guard ring die construction distributes electric field stress away from the active junction periphery, suppressing premature edge breakdown during load dump transients (ISO 7637-2 Pulse 5a). This extends device lifetime under repeated 100 A surge events and improves robustness against ESD (IEC 61000-4-2) in unshielded vehicle harness environments.
