Product details
Overview
MBR16150HC0G from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 16A, 150V Schottky barrier rectifier in TO-220AC package, featuring 0.95V forward voltage at 16A/25°C, 5µA reverse leakage at 150V/125°C, and 150A surge capability. It serves as primary output rectifier in high-efficiency DC-DC converters for industrial power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the MBR16150HC0G datasheet, MBR16150HC0G pinout, MBR16150HC0G application, or MBR16150HC0G equivalent, key selection criteria include its AEC-Q101 qualification, low VF at high temperature, guard ring–enhanced overvoltage robustness, and thermal resistance of 3°C/W junction-to-case.
Technical Context
This single-die Schottky rectifier uses platinum-silicide or similar barrier metallization to achieve low forward voltage and fast switching with no minority-carrier storage delay. Its guard ring structure provides edge termination that sustains rated VRRM under transient overvoltage stress without avalanche breakdown.
The device operates across –55°C to +150°C junction temperature range and delivers stable performance up to 16A average forward current when mounted on heatsinked PCBs per JESD201 Class 2 whisker-tested matte tin leads.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 150 V - Maximum repetitive reverse blocking voltage; defines safe operating limit in flyback or forward converter secondary side |
| IF(AV) | 16 A - Continuous average forward current at TC = 100°C; determines heatsink sizing for sustained load conditions |
| VF @ 16A, 25°C | 0.95 V - Forward voltage drop; directly impacts conduction loss and thermal rise in high-current paths |
| IR @ 150V, 125°C | 5 mA - Reverse leakage current; critical for standby power budget in offline SMPS |
| IFSM (8.3ms) | 150 A - Non-repetitive surge rating; enables reliable startup into capacitive loads or short-circuit recovery |
| RθJC | 3 °C/W - Junction-to-case thermal resistance; allows direct calculation of case temperature rise under given power dissipation |
| TJ max | 150 °C - Maximum allowable junction temperature; sets upper boundary for thermal design margin |
Pinout & Package
TO-220AC package with isolated tab (case), 3-terminal configuration: Anode (lead 1), Cathode (lead 2), and electrically isolated metal tab (lead 3, thermally connected to die backside). Mounting torque ≤0.56 N·m.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (Lead 1) | Input current entry point | Connected to transformer secondary or input rail; must withstand full reverse voltage during off-state |
| Cathode (Lead 2) | Output current exit point | Drives output filter inductor/capacitor; low-inductance layout required to minimize switching noise |
| Metal Tab (Lead 3) | Thermal path / electrical isolation | Electrically isolated but thermally conductive; requires insulating washer when mounted to grounded heatsink |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q101 qualified | Validated for automotive-grade reliability including temperature cycling, HTRB, and ESD per stress test conditions |
| Guard ring overvoltage protection | Prevents premature edge breakdown under dv/dt transients; maintains VRRM integrity during line surges |
| 150A IFSM surge rating | Supports repeated cold-start into bulk capacitance without degradation; exceeds IEC 61000-4-5 Level 3 requirements |
| RoHS & halogen-free | Complies with IEC 61249-2-21; enables use in consumer and industrial products with strict material declarations |
| Junction-to-case RθJC = 3°C/W | Enables compact thermal design: 48W dissipation yields only 144°C ΔT from case to junction at rated IF |
Applications
| Server Power Supply | Automotive DC-DC Converter |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Secondary-side synchronous rectification in 48V-to-12V isolated buck-derived converters for data center rack PSUs.

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-MBR16150CT | TO-220AB package (non-isolated tab); VF = 0.92V @ 16A/25°C; no AEC-Q101 option | Requires insulating hardware only if mounting to grounded heatsink; not qualified for automotive use | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs automotive qualification and isolated-tab requirement |
| ON Semiconductor MBR16150CT | TO-220AB package; VF = 0.94V @ 16A/25°C; AEC-Q101 available as MBR16150CTH | Same thermal profile but non-isolated tab; H-version matches MBR16150HC0G's qualification level | Choose when supply chain diversification is needed and tab isolation is handled externally |
Compared with VS-MBR16150CT and MBR16150CT, MBR16150HC0G uniquely combines AEC-Q101 qualification, electrically isolated TO-220AC tab, and guaranteed 0.95V VF at 16A/25°C-enabling drop-in use in automotive and industrial designs where safety isolation and reliability validation are mandatory.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for MBR16150HC0G?
The MBR16150HC0G has a maximum junction temperature (TJ max) of +150°C, verified per absolute maximum ratings table in the official TSC datasheet Version K2103. This rating applies under all operating conditions and defines the upper thermal limit for safe continuous operation. Derating curves show usable current decreases linearly above TC = 100°C. The MBR16150HC0G must be mounted with appropriate thermal interface to maintain TJ ≤ 150°C under worst-case load and ambient conditions.
Does MBR16150HC0G have an electrically isolated tab?
Yes, the MBR16150HC0G uses the TO-220AC package variant, which features an electrically isolated metal tab (lead 3) thermally connected to the die backside. This isolation eliminates need for insulating pads when mounting to grounded heatsinks-unlike TO-220AB variants. The isolation is confirmed in TSC's package outline drawings and mechanical data section, and is essential for designs requiring galvanic separation between thermal path and circuit ground.
What does the 'H' and 'C0G' suffix mean in MBR16150HC0G?
In MBR16150HC0G, 'H' denotes AEC-Q101 qualification per ordering code note in the TSC datasheet, confirming automotive-grade reliability testing. 'C0G' indicates green compound (halogen-free molding) compliant with IEC 61249-2-21, and RoHS-compliant finish. These suffixes are defined in TSC's ordering information table and distinguish this variant from standard MBR16150 and non-qualified MBR16150C versions.
How does the forward voltage of MBR16150HC0G compare at high temperature?
At 16A and 125°C junction temperature, the MBR16150HC0G exhibits a typical forward voltage of 0.92V-only 0.03V lower than its 25°C value of 0.95V. This minimal negative temperature coefficient ensures stable conduction loss across operating range. The datasheet specifies this value in the Electrical Specifications table under "Forward voltage" with condition "IF = 16A, TJ = 125°C", confirming predictable thermal behavior for thermal design.
Is MBR16150HC0G suitable for use in flyback converter secondary rectification?
Yes, MBR16150HC0G is explicitly recommended for flyback converter secondary rectification per TSC's Applications section, which lists "Switching mode power supply (SMPS)" and "DC to DC converters". Its 150V VRRM provides sufficient margin against reflected voltage spikes in 24V or 48V output designs, and its 150A IFSM handles startup surges. The guard ring structure further enhances robustness against dv/dt-induced edge breakdown common in flyback topologies.
