Product details
Overview
MBR2060CT from Diodes Incorporated is a dual common-cathode Schottky barrier rectifier in TO-220AB package, rated for 60 V peak reverse voltage and 10 A average forward current per leg (20 A total), with maximum 0.81 V forward voltage at 10 A and +25°C. It serves as polarity protection and recirculating diode in DC power supplies and motor drive circuits.
For engineers reviewing the MBR2060CT datasheet, MBR2060CT pinout, MBR2060CT application, or MBR2060CT equivalent, key selection criteria include per-leg forward voltage drop, thermal resistance (2 °C/W junction-to-case), surge rating (180 A IFSM), RoHS-compliant lead-free finish, and AEC-Q101 qualification for high-reliability industrial use.
Technical Context
This dual-diode configuration integrates two independent Schottky junctions sharing a common cathode terminal, enabling synchronous rectification or bidirectional clamping in half-bridge topologies. Its guard ring die construction suppresses edge leakage and improves surge robustness under repetitive transient conditions.
Designed for commercial and industrial power conversion, it operates across –55°C to +150°C with low thermal resistance and stable leakage (<0.1 mA at 60 V, +25°C). The device requires heatsinking above ~75°C ambient due to derating curves showing 10 A capability only up to ~85°C ambient at full load.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 60 V - Maximum non-repetitive reverse voltage each anode can withstand without breakdown |
| IO (per leg) | 10 A - Continuous average forward current per diode leg at +25°C case temperature |
| VF (max) | 0.81 V @ 10 A, +25°C - Directly impacts conduction loss and thermal design in 12–48 V DC systems |
| IFSM | 180 A - Peak non-repetitive surge current tolerance for 8.3 ms half-sine, critical for inductive turn-off protection |
| RθJC | 2 °C/W - Junction-to-case thermal resistance enables precise heatsink sizing when mounted on standard 45×20 mm finned sink |
| IR (max) | 0.1 mA @ 60 V, +25°C - Low leakage preserves efficiency in standby and battery-backed circuits |
| AEC-Q101 | Qualified - Confirmed reliability for automotive-grade industrial applications requiring extended temperature and life testing |
Pinout & Package
TO-220AB (Type C) plastic package with copper leadframe, matte tin-plated terminals, UL 94V-0 flammability rating, and 1.95 g mass. Mounting tab is cathode-connected and electrically active.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 (Left) | Anode 1 | Input terminal for first Schottky diode leg; connects to positive rail or switching node |
| Pin 2 (Center) | Cathode (Common) | Shared output node for both diodes; must be thermally and electrically connected to heatsink |
| Pin 3 (Right) | Anode 2 | Input terminal for second Schottky diode leg; used for dual-rail or phase-split rectification |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Guard ring die construction | Reduces edge leakage and increases ruggedness against voltage transients and ESD stress |
| Low VF Schottky architecture | 0.75 V typical at 10 A, +125°C - cuts conduction losses by ~30% vs. silicon PN rectifiers |
| High IFSM rating | 180 A surge capacity supports motor commutation spikes and capacitor inrush limiting |
| Halogen- and antimony-free "Green" compound | Meets <900 ppm Br/Cl, <1500 ppm total halogens, and <1000 ppm antimony - compliant with EU environmental directives |
Applications
| DC Power Supply Input Stage | Brushed DC Motor Drive |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Full-wave rectification of AC input in offline switch-mode power supplies delivering 24–48 V DC output. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Dual-anode Schottky rectifier replacing center-tapped transformer + single diode or discrete bridge; common-cathode output feeds bulk capacitor. Use Value: 0.81 V VF minimizes heat generation at 10 A per leg, reducing heatsink size versus 1.1 V silicon alternatives. | Use Scenario: Flyback protection across brushed DC motor windings during PWM turn-off. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Recirculating diode clamping inductive kickback; one anode tied to H-bridge high-side, other to low-side, shared cathode to ground/rail. Use Value: 180 A IFSM handles repeated 50–100 A motor current spikes without degradation over >10⁵ cycles. |
| Industrial Battery Charger | LED Driver Output Stage |
Use Scenario: Polarity protection and OR-ing function in dual-input 24 V battery chargers with AC/DC and solar inputs. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Common-cathode configuration allows independent anode connection to each source, preventing backfeed while maintaining low-loss path. Use Value: 0.1 mA IR at 60 V ensures negligible standby drain on sealed lead-acid or LiFePO₄ batteries during idle periods. | Use Scenario: Secondary-side rectification in constant-current LED drivers powering high-brightness arrays (e.g., street lighting). IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Synchronous rectifier in flyback or forward converter output stage; low VF maintains regulation accuracy under varying load currents. Use Value: 2 °C/W RθJC enables direct mounting to aluminum PCB or chassis, eliminating separate thermal interface material in space-constrained luminaires. |
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-MBR2060CT | Identical 60 V / 10 A per leg rating; VF = 0.82 V max @ 10 A, +25°C; RθJC = 2.1 °C/W | No AEC-Q101 qualification; not rated for automotive-temperature cycling | Select for cost-sensitive industrial supplies where extended reliability testing is not required |
| ON Semiconductor MBR2060CTG | Same electrical specs; halogen-free but not antimony-free; RθJC = 2.2 °C/W; slightly higher IR (0.15 mA) | Approved for legacy industrial designs with existing ON Semi BOMs and procurement channels | Choose when cross-manufacturer sourcing flexibility is needed without redesign validation |
Compared with VS-MBR2060CT and MBR2060CTG, the Diodes Incorporated MBR2060CT offers tighter VF control (0.81 V max), lower RθJC (2.0 °C/W), and full AEC-Q101 qualification-making it preferred for thermally constrained or automotive-adjacent industrial systems demanding long-term parametric stability.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature for continuous operation?
The MBR2060CT has an operating junction temperature range of –55°C to +150°C. For continuous 10 A per leg operation, the case temperature must remain ≤+85°C per the derating curve; exceeding this requires proportional current reduction to maintain TJ ≤+150°C with RθJC = 2 °C/W.
Is the TO-220AB mounting tab electrically isolated?
No-the center pin (cathode) and metal tab are electrically connected and share the same potential. The tab must be insulated from chassis ground unless the cathode node is referenced to system ground; use insulating shoulder washers and thermal pads if isolation is required.
Can MBR2060CT replace MBR2045CT in existing designs?
Yes, with verification of reverse voltage margin: MBR2060CT's 60 V VRRM exceeds MBR2045CT's 45 V rating, and both share identical package, pinout, and thermal characteristics. However, VF is 0.81 V vs. 0.64 V, so conduction loss increases ~27% at 10 A-verify thermal headroom and efficiency targets.
Does this part support surface-mount assembly?
No-MBR2060CT uses through-hole TO-220AB packaging and is not designed for reflow soldering. It requires wave soldering or hand-soldering with mechanical retention; for SMT alternatives, consider Diodes' MBR2060CTL or similar D2PAK variants.
