Product details
Overview
MBR1060CT from Diodes Incorporated is a 10A dual common-cathode Schottky barrier rectifier in TO-220AB package, rated for 60V peak reverse voltage, 5A average forward current per leg, 0.75V max forward voltage at 5A/25°C, and 0.1mA max reverse leakage at 25°C. It serves as polarity protection, recirculating, or switching diode in DC power supplies, battery chargers, and industrial SMPS.
For engineers reviewing the MBR1060CT datasheet, MBR1060CT pinout, MBR1060CT application, or MBR1060CT equivalent, key selection criteria include per-leg VRWM = 60V, IO = 5A, low VF for efficiency, TO-220AB thermal resistance (RθJC = 3 K/W), and AEC-Q101 qualification for reliability-critical designs.
Technical Context
This dual-element Schottky rectifier integrates two independent anode terminals (Pins 1 and 3) sharing a common cathode (Pin 2), enabling synchronous half-wave or dual-rail rectification. Its guard ring die construction enhances transient immunity, while the low forward voltage minimizes conduction loss in high-frequency switching topologies.
Designed for operation up to +150°C junction temperature, it delivers 100A non-repetitive surge capability (8.3ms half-sine) and exhibits 150pF typical junction capacitance at 4V reverse bias and 1MHz - critical for EMI-sensitive switch-mode applications.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRWM | 60 V - Maximum DC blocking voltage per leg; defines safe operating limit in unidirectional power paths. |
| IO (per leg) | 5 A - Continuous average forward current per anode-cathode path at TC = 25°C with heatsink; total device rating is 10A. |
| VF (max) | 0.75 V @ 5A, 25°C - Low conduction loss enables >92% efficiency in 12V output SMPS at full load. |
| IR (max) | 0.1 mA @ 60V, 25°C - Minimal leakage preserves standby power budget in always-on systems. |
| IFSM | 100 A - Withstands inrush surges during cold-start of AC/DC converters without degradation. |
| RθJC | 3 K/W - Enables direct mounting to chassis or heatsink for thermal management in space-constrained 10A designs. |
| CT | 150 pF @ 4V, 1MHz - Low junction capacitance reduces switching noise and EMI generation in >100kHz converters. |
Pinout & Package
Package: TO-220AB - Molded plastic case with matte tin–annealed copper leadframe, UL 94V-0 rated, 1.95g weight, moisture sensitivity level 1.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 | Anode 1 | Input terminal for first rectifying element; connects to AC or switched input node. |
| Pin 2 | Common Cathode | Shared output node for both legs; ties to positive rail or filter capacitor. |
| Pin 3 | Anode 2 | Input terminal for second rectifying element; supports dual-input or interleaved topology. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Guard ring die construction | Improves robustness against voltage transients and ESD events without external clamping components. |

| Lead-free & halogen-free | Meets RoHS 2 and JEDEC J-STD-020 Level 1 standards; compatible with lead-free reflow profiles. |
| Low thermal resistance | RθJC = 3 K/W enables 5A/leg operation with minimal heatsink area (45 × 20 × 12 mm recommended). |
Applications
| AC/DC Power Supply Input Stage | Battery Charger Polarity Protection |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Full-wave rectification of 24VAC transformer output feeding bulk capacitor in industrial power supply. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Dual-leg Schottky rectifier replacing center-tapped transformer configuration; common-cathode topology simplifies layout. Use Value: 0.75V VF reduces conduction loss by ~35% vs. standard PN diodes, lowering thermal stress on PCB. | Use Scenario: Reverse-polarity protection in 48V Li-ion battery charger front-end before buck controller. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Series-connected anode-to-input, cathode-to-system-rail; blocks reverse current during incorrect battery insertion. Use Value: 0.1mA IR ensures <1μW standby dissipation, preserving battery charge during storage. |
| DC Motor Flyback Suppression | Industrial SMPS Output Rectification |
Use Scenario: Freewheeling path across brushed DC motor terminals during PWM turn-off in factory automation drive. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Recirculating diode clamping inductive kickback; Pin 1 and Pin 3 used independently per H-bridge leg. Use Value: 100A IFSM withstands repeated motor stall currents without failure. | Use Scenario: Secondary-side synchronous rectification in 36V-output telecom SMPS operating at 250kHz. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Dual-leg output rectifier delivering 10A combined current; low CT minimizes switching loss and EMI. Use Value: 150pF CT limits displacement current, reducing RFI emissions below CISPR-22 Class B limits. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Schottky rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STPS1060CG | Same TO-220AB package, 60V/10A total, but single common-anode configuration (not dual common-cathode); VF = 0.72V @ 5A. | Requires circuit redesign to accommodate common-anode topology; unsuitable for shared-cathode output rails. | Select only if board layout supports anode-common routing and no shared cathode is needed. |
| Vishay VS-MBR1060CT | Identical electrical specs and pinout; same AEC-Q101 qualification; minor differences in marking and traceability documentation. | No functional or mechanical change; drop-in replacement with identical thermal and electrical behavior. | Preferred for dual-source procurement where Diodes Incorporated allocation is constrained. |
Compared with STPS1060CG, MBR1060CT offers native common-cathode architecture for simplified positive-rail output designs; versus VS-MBR1060CT, it provides identical performance with differentiated supply chain traceability and packaging logistics.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature and how does it affect derating?
The MBR1060CT has an operating junction temperature range of –55°C to +150°C. At case temperatures above +25°C, forward current must be linearly derated - e.g., at TC = 100°C, IO drops to ~3.2A per leg per Figure 1. This ensures long-term reliability under sustained thermal load.
Is MBR1060CT suitable for surface-mount assembly?
No - MBR1060CT uses the through-hole TO-220AB package with three leads designed for vertical mounting and mechanical heatsinking. It is not compatible with SMT reflow or wave soldering processes due to thermal mass and lead geometry.
How does the guard ring structure improve reliability?
The integrated guard ring mitigates edge breakdown under high dv/dt or transient overvoltage conditions by controlling electric field distribution at the silicon periphery. This extends device lifetime in noisy industrial environments and eliminates need for external snubbers in many applications.
Can MBR1060CT replace MBR1040CT in existing designs?
Yes - MBR1060CT shares identical TO-220AB footprint, pinout, and thermal characteristics with MBR1040CT, differing only in higher VRWM (60V vs. 40V). It can be used as a direct upgrade where increased reverse voltage margin is required, with no layout or thermal changes needed.
