Product details
Overview
MBR1060 from Diodes Incorporated is a 10A, 60V Schottky barrier rectifier in TO-220AC package, designed for low-voltage, high-frequency DC/DC conversion, freewheeling, and polarity protection. It delivers 0.87V forward voltage at 10A/25°C, 150A non-repetitive surge capability, and 400pF typical junction capacitance.
For engineers reviewing the MBR1060 datasheet, MBR1060 pinout, MBR1060 application, or MBR1060 equivalent, key selection criteria include forward voltage drop at rated current, thermal resistance (2.5°C/W junction-to-case), reverse leakage at 125°C, surge rating, and TO-220AC mounting compatibility with heatsink interfaces.
Technical Context
This Schottky rectifier uses guard ring die construction to suppress transient-induced avalanche breakdown and improve reliability under repetitive surge stress. Its low VF and fast recovery (<10ns) minimize conduction and switching losses in high-frequency SMPS topologies.
The device operates across –65°C to +150°C, with thermal resistance optimized for direct-mount heatsinking. Junction capacitance of 400pF at 4V reverse bias supports stable high-frequency rectification without excessive ringing in buck or flyback output stages.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Peak Reverse Voltage | 60 V - Maximum blocking capability before breakdown; sets upper limit for input/output rail voltage in DC/DC converters |
| Forward Voltage @10A/25°C | 0.87 V - Directly determines conduction loss (8.7W at 10A); enables >92% efficiency in 5–12V output stages |
| Surge Current IFSM | 150 A - Withstands single half-sine 8.3ms surges; critical for handling inrush or fault transients in power supplies |
| Junction-to-Case RθJC | 2.5 °C/W - Enables thermal design with standard TO-220 heatsinks; limits ΔT to 25°C at 10W dissipation |
| Reverse Leakage @125°C | 30 mA - Sets standby power loss in polarity protection circuits; impacts thermal runaway risk in parallel configurations |
| Junction Capacitance | 400 pF - Influences high-frequency noise coupling and EMI filter sizing; low value reduces switching node oscillation |
Pinout & Package
Package: TO-220AC - Molded plastic case, UL 94V-0 rated, lead-free tin-plated terminals, 2.24g weight, designed for vertical PCB mounting with heatsink interface on metal tab.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (Pin 1) | Input current entry point | Connected to unregulated or higher-potential rail; must withstand full surge current and reverse voltage stress |
| Cathode (Pin 2 & 3) | Output current exit point | Internally paralleled pins reduce resistive loss and thermal gradient; soldered to ground plane or low-impedance output trace |
| Metal Tab | Thermal path / Cathode connection | Electrically tied to cathode; requires insulating pad if mounted to grounded heatsink; primary heat extraction surface |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Guard ring die construction | Suppresses edge avalanche during transient overvoltage, extending operational life in noisy industrial environments |
| Low forward voltage (0.87V @10A) | Reduces power loss by ≥30% vs. comparable silicon rectifiers, lowering thermal load in compact enclosures |
| 150A surge rating | Supports robust startup sequencing in battery-powered inverters without external fusing or derating |
| TO-220AC mechanical standardization | Enables drop-in replacement across legacy designs and simplifies heatsink selection using industry-standard footprints |
Applications

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Reverse-biased series protection element preventing damage from battery misconnection. Use Value: 60V VRRM exceeds ISO 7637-2 pulse 5a requirements; 30mA IR at 125°C ensures minimal standby drain during engine-off storage. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Schottky rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vishay VS-MBR1060CT | Center-tap dual-die configuration; 0.82V VF @10A/25°C; 120A IFSM | Requires dual-output or center-tapped transformer topology; not suitable for single-anode freewheeling | Select only when dual-cathode layout matches PCB footprint and circuit topology |
| ON Semiconductor MBR1060CT | Same TO-220AC package; 0.85V VF @10A/25°C; 140A IFSM; 350pF CT | Lower capacitance improves EMI performance in high-frequency LED drivers but offers no advantage in low-kHz inverters | Prefer for noise-sensitive lighting applications where 50pF reduction lowers common-mode filter burden |
Compared with MBR1060, VS-MBR1060CT suits center-tapped designs but lacks single-anode flexibility, while MBR1060CT trades 10A surge margin for lower capacitance-making it optimal for EMI-constrained LED systems but less robust for motor drive surges.

FAQ
Is MBR1060 RoHS compliant and halogen-free?
Yes. MBR1060 features a lead-free finish compliant with EU Directive 2011/65/EU (RoHS 2), with all applicable exemptions applied. Diodes Incorporated confirms it meets their internal "Green" definition-fully halogen- and antimony-free per specification AP7001.
Can MBR1060 be used in parallel for higher current handling?
Parallel operation is not recommended without individual current-sharing resistors or matched VF binning. Due to negative temperature coefficient of VF, uneven thermal coupling may cause current hogging-verified test data shows >35% current imbalance between two devices at 10A total without balancing.
What is the maximum allowable case temperature for continuous 10A operation?
Per Figure 1 in DS23009, the absolute maximum case temperature for 10A average current is +125°C. At that temperature, derating is complete-operation above this point risks irreversible thermal runaway due to rising leakage current and reduced surge margin.
Does the metal tab carry electrical potential, and how should it be isolated?
Yes-the metal tab is electrically connected to the cathode. When mounting to a grounded heatsink, use a UL-certified insulating washer (e.g., mica or silicone elastomer) with thermal grease. Electrical isolation must withstand ≥60V RMS per IPC-2221B clearance requirements for functional insulation.
