Product details
Overview
MBR1650HC0G from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 16A, 50V Schottky barrier rectifier in TO-220AC package, featuring low forward voltage (0.75 V @ 16 A, 25°C), high surge current capability (150 A), and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive-grade reliability. It serves as a primary output rectifier in high-efficiency DC/DC converters and industrial SMPS.
For engineers reviewing the MBR1650HC0G datasheet, MBR1650HC0G pinout, MBR1650HC0G application, or MBR1650HC0G equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, thermal performance data, mechanical mounting details, and validated alternative parts for power supply design and automotive electronics qualification.
Technical Context
This device operates as a single-die, unidirectional Schottky rectifier with guard ring protection against transient overvoltage. Its junction-to-case thermal resistance is 3°C/W, enabling effective heat dissipation when mounted to heatsinks under continuous 16 A conduction.
The MBR1650HC0G supports repetitive peak reverse voltages up to 50 V and withstands 8.3 ms half-sine surge currents of 150 A. Reverse leakage remains ≤500 µA at 25°C and ≤10 mA at 125°C, ensuring stable blocking behavior across automotive temperature ranges.
Key Specifications

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-MBR1650CT | TO-220AB package (non-isolated tab); VF = 0.72 V @ 16 A, 25°C; no AEC-Q101 certification | Not qualified for automotive under-hood use; suitable for commercial/industrial SMPS only | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs automotive qualification and isolation requirement |
| ON Semiconductor MBR1650CT | TO-220AB package; VF = 0.74 V @ 16 A, 25°C; AEC-Q101 available only in MBR1650CTG variant | Requires verification of G-suffix part for automotive compliance; tab not electrically isolated | Choose only if MBR1650CTG is sourced and thermal interface allows non-isolated mounting |
Compared with MBR1650HC0G, VS-MBR1650CT offers slightly lower VF but lacks isolation and automotive qualification, while MBR1650CT requires careful suffix validation for AEC-Q101 and cannot replace the isolated-tab functionality without layout redesign.

FAQ
What does the 'H' and 'C0G' suffix mean in MBR1650HC0G?
The 'H' denotes AEC-Q101 qualification per JESD22-A108, confirming automotive-grade reliability testing. 'C0G' indicates green (halogen-free) compound per IEC 61249-2-21 and RoHS compliance. The MBR1650HC0G therefore meets both automotive stress and environmental regulatory requirements for front-end rectification in vehicle ECUs and industrial controllers.
Is MBR1650HC0G pin-compatible with standard TO-220AC rectifiers?
Yes - MBR1650HC0G uses the industry-standard TO-220AC footprint with three leads: anode (lead 1), cathode (isolated metal tab/lead 2), and mechanical support (lead 3). Mounting hole spacing, lead pitch, and outline dimensions match JEDEC TO-220AC specifications, enabling direct replacement in existing layouts designed for equivalent-rated Schottky rectifiers.
What is the maximum recommended case temperature for continuous operation of MBR1650HC0G?
The MBR1650HC0G has a maximum junction temperature of 150°C and a junction-to-case thermal resistance of 3°C/W. For continuous 16 A operation, the case temperature must remain ≤105°C to maintain safe junction margin under worst-case ambient and airflow conditions. This requires adequate heatsinking - typically ≥15 cm² aluminum fin surface area with ≥1 m/s airflow.
Does MBR1650HC0G support synchronous rectification drive schemes?
No - MBR1650HC0G is a passive Schottky rectifier and does not integrate gate drive circuitry or control logic. It functions as a self-commutated device in flyback, forward, or LLC topologies where its zero reverse recovery enables natural synchronous behavior. For active synchronous rectification, discrete MOSFETs with external drivers (e.g., N-channel FETs controlled by ICs like UCC24612) are required instead of MBR1650HC0G.
How does the guard ring in MBR1650HC0G improve robustness?
The guard ring in MBR1650HC0G is a diffused p-type region surrounding the main Schottky junction, which distributes electric field gradients during voltage transients. This structure raises the device's dv/dt immunity to 10,000 V/µs and prevents premature edge breakdown - critical for surviving load dump events (ISO 7637-2 Pulse 5a) in automotive 12 V/48 V systems where MBR1650HC0G is commonly deployed.
