Product details
Overview
MBR2060CT from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 20A dual-die Schottky barrier rectifier in TO-220AB package, rated for 60V repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM), 150A surge current (IFSM), and maximum junction temperature of 150°C. It delivers low forward voltage drop (0.80V typ. @ 10A, 25°C) and high efficiency in DC–DC converters and switching power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the MBR2060CT datasheet, MBR2060CT pinout, MBR2060CT application, or MBR2060CT equivalent, key selection criteria include its 60V VRRM rating, dual-common-cathode configuration, thermal resistance (RθJC = 1°C/W), AEC-Q101 qualification option, and suitability for high-current, low-loss rectification in compact industrial and automotive power stages.
Technical Context
The MBR2060CT integrates two independent Schottky diodes in a single TO-220AB package with common cathode connection, enabling full-wave rectification or dual-channel output paths. Its guard ring structure provides overvoltage protection, and it supports high dv/dt (10,000 V/μs) for fast-switching topologies.
Designed for operation up to 150°C junction temperature, the device exhibits low reverse leakage (≤10 mA @ 125°C, 60V VR) and maintains stable forward voltage across temperature - 0.70V max @ 10A, 125°C - ensuring predictable conduction loss in thermally constrained designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for the MBR2060CT?
The MBR2060CT has a maximum junction temperature (TJ MAX) of +150°C, verified per absolute maximum ratings in the official Taiwan Semiconductor datasheet. This rating enables reliable operation in high-ambient environments such as enclosed power supplies or under-hood automotive auxiliary circuits. Derating curves confirm usable current capacity down to 10A at 125°C case temperature. The MBR2060CT must be mounted to an appropriate heatsink to maintain TJ ≤ 150°C under full-load conditions.
Does the MBR2060CT have AEC-Q101 qualification?
The base MBR2060CT is not AEC-Q101 qualified; however, the AEC-Q101-qualified variant is designated MBR2060CTH per Taiwan Semiconductor's ordering information. This H-suffix version undergoes full stress testing per AEC-Q101 Rev D, including HTGB, HTRB, and temperature cycling. For automotive applications requiring qualification, MBR2060CTH - not MBR2060CT - must be specified. Both share identical electrical and thermal specifications.
What is the pin configuration and polarity marking of the MBR2060CT?
The MBR2060CT uses a TO-220AB package with three leads: Pin 1 (Anode 1), Pin 2 (Common Cathode), and Pin 3 (Anode 2), arranged left-to-right with the tab facing outward. Polarity is marked on the device body with a cathode band adjacent to Pin 2. Mounting torque must not exceed 0.56 N·m. The MBR2060CT's common-cathode configuration supports full-wave rectification and dual-output topologies without external wiring changes.
How does the forward voltage of the MBR2060CT vary with temperature and current?
The MBR2060CT exhibits a negative temperature coefficient for forward voltage: VF decreases as junction temperature rises. At 10A and 25°C, VF is ≤0.80V; at 10A and 125°C, it drops to ≤0.70V. At 20A and 25°C, VF is ≤0.95V; at 20A and 125°C, it is ≤0.85V. These values are confirmed in the Electrical Specifications table of the Taiwan Semiconductor datasheet. This behavior improves thermal stability in the MBR2060CT during sustained high-current operation.
What is the reverse leakage current specification for the MBR2060CT at elevated temperature?
The MBR2060CT specifies a maximum reverse leakage current (IR) of 10 mA per diode at 60V reverse voltage and 125°C junction temperature, per the Electrical Specifications table. At 25°C and 60V, IR is ≤100 µA. This low, well-characterized leakage ensures minimal standby power loss in always-on auxiliary rails and supports stable regulation in high-temperature environments. The MBR2060CT's leakage remains within spec across its full –55°C to +150°C storage and operating range.
