Product details
Overview
MBR16100 C0G from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 16A, 100V Schottky barrier rectifier in TO-220AC package, featuring low forward voltage (0.85 V at 16 A, 25°C), high surge current capability (150 A), and junction-to-case thermal resistance of 3°C/W. It serves as primary output rectifier in high-efficiency DC-DC converters and industrial SMPS.
For engineers reviewing the MBR16100 C0G datasheet, MBR16100 C0G pinout, MBR16100 C0G application, or MBR16100 C0G equivalent, key selection criteria include repetitive peak reverse voltage (100 V), forward current rating (16 A), thermal performance (RθJC = 3°C/W), reverse leakage (300 µA at 25°C), and AEC-Q101 qualification availability.
Technical Context
This Schottky rectifier uses a single-die construction with guard ring for overvoltage protection and matte tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002 solderability. Its 100 V VRRM and 0.85 V VF at 16 A enable efficient operation in 48 V-output power stages.
Thermal design is supported by RθJC = 3°C/W and maximum junction temperature of 150°C, while surge robustness is confirmed by IFSM = 150 A (8.3 ms half-sine) and dV/dt rating of 10,000 V/µs.
Key Specifications

| VF | 0.85 V @ 16 A, 25°C - Low conduction loss enabling >92% efficiency in 12 V–48 V DC-DC outputs |
| IFSM | 150 A - Withstands short-term overload transients without failure |
| RθJC | 3°C/W - Enables direct heatsink mounting with minimal thermal interface resistance |
| IR | 300 µA @ 100 V, 25°C - Low leakage preserves standby efficiency in energy-sensitive designs |

Applications
| Server PSU Output Rectification | Industrial DC-DC Converter |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Primary 12 V or 48 V output rectification in 80 PLUS Titanium server power supplies. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Schottky rectifier replacing fast recovery diodes to reduce conduction loss and improve full-load efficiency. Use Value: 0.85 V VF at 16 A lowers power dissipation by ~1.8 W vs. silicon FRD, directly increasing efficiency by 0.4–0.6% at 50% load. | Use Scenario: Output stage in isolated 24 V input to 5 V/3.3 V DC-DC modules for PLC I/O modules. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Secondary-side synchronous rectifier alternative where gate drive complexity is undesirable. Use Value: Single-device solution with 150 A surge rating handles motor-start transients without derating, simplifying BOM vs. MOSFET + driver. |
| Telecom Power Shelf | Automotive On-Board Charger (OBC) Auxiliary Supply |
Use Scenario: +48 V telecom rectifier module supplying base station backplane power. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-current freewheeling path during buck converter dead time. Use Value: 3°C/W RθJC allows direct heatsink mounting with <15°C rise at 16 A, eliminating need for thermal vias or thick copper. | Use Scenario: Auxiliary 12 V supply rectifier in OBC systems using 400 V–800 V battery input. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Input-stage clamp or output rectifier in auxiliary flyback or forward converter. Use Value: AEC-Q101 qualified version (MBR16100H) available; 100 V rating covers reflected transients in 48 V auxiliary windings. |
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-MBR16100CT | TO-220AB dual common-cathode configuration; 0.82 V VF @ 16 A, 25°C; 120 A IFSM | Requires dual-output or parallel-path topology; not single-anode/single-cathode drop-in | Select when dual-output rectification or lower VF is prioritized over single-diode simplicity |
| ON Semiconductor MBR16100CT | TO-220AB package; 0.87 V VF @ 16 A, 25°C; 130 A IFSM; AEC-Q101 qualified | Same dual-diode footprint; incompatible pinout and internal configuration for single-diode replacement | Choose only if redesigning for dual-diode layout and requiring certified automotive qualification |
Compared with MBR16100 C0G, VS-MBR16100CT offers marginally lower VF but demands circuit rework for dual-cathode routing, while MBR16100CT provides AEC-Q101 assurance at the cost of non-interchangeable packaging and higher thermal resistance (3.5°C/W).

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for MBR16100 C0G?
The MBR16100 C0G has a maximum junction temperature (TJ) of 150°C, validated across its full operating range. This rating enables reliable operation in sealed industrial enclosures where case temperatures reach 95°C, provided thermal design maintains RθJA ≤ 3.4°C/W. Derating curves in the official TSC datasheet confirm 16 A continuous current is sustainable up to 95°C case temperature.
Is MBR16100 C0G pin-compatible with standard TO-220AC rectifiers?
Yes, MBR16100 C0G uses the industry-standard TO-220AC outline with Anode–Cathode–Tab pin assignment (Lead 1 = Anode, Lead 2 = Cathode, Lead 3 = Case/Tap). Its lead pitch, hole spacing, and tab dimensions match JEDEC TO-220AC specifications, allowing direct replacement of other TO-220AC Schottky or fast recovery rectifiers without PCB modification.
Does MBR16100 C0G meet automotive qualification standards?
The base MBR16100 C0G is not AEC-Q101 qualified; however, the variant MBR16100H - identical electrically and thermally but with enhanced process controls and test screening - is AEC-Q101 qualified. Customers requiring automotive-grade assurance must specify MBR16100H; both share the same TO-220AC package and marking code "MBR16100" with "H" suffix denoting qualification.
What is the typical forward voltage of MBR16100 C0G at elevated temperature?
At 16 A and 125°C junction temperature, the MBR16100 C0G exhibits a typical forward voltage of 0.75 V, per TSC's electrical specifications table. This represents a reduction from the 25°C value (0.85 V), confirming negative temperature coefficient behavior typical of Schottky diodes - critical for current sharing stability in parallel configurations.
How does the guard ring feature benefit MBR16100 C0G in real-world applications?
The guard ring in MBR16100 C0G mitigates edge breakdown under transient overvoltage conditions, such as line surges or inductive kickback. In SMPS applications, this extends device lifetime during cold-start or output short-circuit events, and reduces field failure rates in unregulated-input designs where voltage spikes exceed nominal VRRM marginally but remain within the guarded breakdown limit.
