Product details
Overview
MBR2045PT from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 20A, 45V dual-die Schottky barrier rectifier in TO-247AD (TO-3P) package, designed for high-efficiency DC/DC conversion and SMPS output stages with low forward voltage (0.84 V at 20 A, 25°C) and high surge capability (150 A IFSM). It features guard ring overvoltage protection and meets UL 94V-0 flammability rating.
For engineers reviewing the MBR2045PT datasheet, MBR2045PT pinout, MBR2045PT application, or MBR2045PT equivalent, key selection criteria include its 45 V repetitive peak reverse voltage, 150 A surge rating, junction-to-case thermal resistance of 1.0 °C/W, and AEC-Q101 qualification availability - critical for automotive power supply designs requiring reliability under thermal stress and transient conditions.
Technical Context
The MBR2045PT integrates two independent Schottky diodes in a single TO-247AD package, enabling dual-output or parallel-configured rectification without external pairing. Its low VF (0.72 V at 20 A, 125°C) minimizes conduction loss in high-current, high-temperature environments typical of industrial DC/DC converters.
With dV/dt rating of 10,000 V/μs and guard ring structure, the device sustains fast-switching transients without avalanche breakdown. The 1.0 °C/W RθJC supports direct heatsink mounting for thermal management in space-constrained power modules.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 45 V - Maximum repetitive reverse blocking voltage per diode; defines safe operating limit in flyback or buck output rectification. |
| IF | 20 A - Continuous average forward current per diode; enables compact 20 A output stage without forced air cooling. |
| IFSM | 150 A - Non-repetitive surge current (8.3 ms half-sine); withstands inrush and fault transients in adapter and SMPS applications. |
| VF @ 20 A, 25°C | 0.84 V - Low conduction loss reduces power dissipation by ~1.7 W vs. silicon diodes at same current, improving system efficiency. |
| RθJC | 1.0 °C/W - Enables predictable thermal design: 20 W dissipation yields only 20°C junction-to-case rise, simplifying heatsink sizing. |
| TJ max | 150 °C - Extended junction temperature range supports operation in sealed enclosures or high-ambient industrial environments. |
| IR @ 45 V, 125°C | 15 mA - Reverse leakage level at rated voltage and elevated temperature; impacts standby power in always-on systems. |
Pinout & Package
Package: TO-247AD (TO-3P), 3-terminal case with isolated tab. Mounting torque ≤1.13 N·m. Matte tin-plated leads, J-STD-002 solderable. Polarity marked on device body.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode 1 (A1) | Input terminal for first diode | Connects to switching node (e.g., transformer secondary center-tap or buck switch node); must handle full 20 A forward path. |
| Cathode (K) | Common cathode for both diodes | Shared output node; ties both diodes to positive rail - enables dual-anode, single-cathode configuration for center-tapped rectifiers. |
| Anode 2 (A2) | Input terminal for second diode | Independent anode for second diode; allows separate input paths (e.g., dual-winding transformer or interleaved phase). |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual-die Schottky configuration | Two independent 20 A/45 V diodes in one TO-247AD package - eliminates discrete pairing, reduces PCB area and interconnect inductance. |
| Guard ring overvoltage protection | Prevents premature edge breakdown during fast dV/dt events (10,000 V/μs), enhancing reliability in high-frequency SMPS. |
| AEC-Q101 qualified option (MBR2045PTH) | Validated for automotive-grade temperature cycling, humidity, and mechanical stress - suitable for under-hood DC/DC converters. |
| UL Recognized (E-326243) | Meets safety requirements for end-equipment certification in AC/DC adapters and industrial power supplies. |
| RoHS & halogen-free (IEC 61249-2-21) | Complies with environmental regulations for global OEM production; no brominated flame retardants or antimony trioxide. |

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-20BQ045PBF | Same 20 A / 45 V rating, TO-220AC package (single diode), no dual-die configuration. | Requires two devices for dual-anode use; higher thermal resistance (RθJC = 3.0 °C/W) limits power density. | Select when board space allows discrete placement and lower cost outweighs integration benefit. |
| ON Semiconductor MBR2045CT | 20 A / 45 V dual common-cathode Schottky in TO-220AB; RθJC = 2.5 °C/W; no AEC-Q101 option. | Compatible pinout but lower thermal performance; not qualified for automotive temperature cycling. | Choose for cost-sensitive industrial adapters where AEC-Q101 and ultra-low RθJC are not required. |
Compared with VS-20BQ045PBF and MBR2045CT, the MBR2045PT delivers superior thermal performance (1.0 °C/W), integrated dual-die layout, and optional AEC-Q101 qualification - making it optimal for high-power-density and automotive-grade designs where heatsink interface efficiency and reliability validation are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for the MBR2045PT?
The MBR2045PT has a maximum junction temperature (TJ) of +150°C, verified per absolute maximum ratings in the official datasheet. This rating allows reliable operation in sealed enclosures or high-ambient environments such as automotive under-hood locations. Derating curves confirm usable current capacity down to 125°C case temperature, and the device must be mounted with thermal interface material to maintain this limit in continuous 20 A operation. The MBR2045PT achieves this rating through optimized die metallization and TO-247AD package thermal design.
Does the MBR2045PT have AEC-Q101 qualification?
The base MBR2045PT is not AEC-Q101 qualified, but the variant MBR2045PTH is explicitly listed in the ordering information as AEC-Q101 qualified. This qualification covers temperature cycling, mechanical shock, and humidity testing per AEC standard, making MBR2045PTH suitable for automotive power modules. Designers requiring automotive compliance must specify the "H" suffix version; the MBR2045PT itself does not carry this qualification and should not be used in safety-critical automotive applications without additional validation.
What is the forward voltage drop of the MBR2045PT at full rated current and elevated temperature?
At 20 A forward current and 125°C junction temperature, the MBR2045PT exhibits a typical forward voltage (VF) of 0.72 V, as specified in the electrical characteristics table. This value is measured under pulsed conditions (PW = 0.3 ms) and reflects real-world conduction loss in thermally stressed operation. At 25°C, VF is 0.84 V under the same 20 A condition. These values are confirmed across the MBR20xPT family and directly impact thermal design and system efficiency calculations for the MBR2045PT.
How is the pin configuration arranged in the TO-247AD package of the MBR2045PT?
The MBR2045PT uses a 3-pin TO-247AD (TO-3P) package with Anode 1, Cathode (common), and Anode 2 terminals - arranged left-to-right as A1–K–A2 when viewed with marking side up and tab facing away. The metal tab is electrically isolated and serves as a thermal path only. Polarity is marked on the device body per the manufacturer's marking diagram. This configuration supports center-tapped transformer rectification and dual-input topologies without external wiring between cathodes.
What is the reverse leakage current specification for the MBR2045PT at 45 V and 125°C?
At 45 V reverse voltage and 125°C junction temperature, the MBR2045PT has a maximum reverse leakage current (IR) of 15 mA per diode, as stated in the electrical specifications table. This value is measured under pulse test conditions (PW = 30 ms) and represents worst-case leakage under thermal stress. Leakage increases exponentially with temperature, so this parameter critically affects standby power in always-on systems. The MBR2045PT's 15 mA rating is consistent with other 45 V Schottky rectifiers in its class and is validated across production lots.
