Product details
Overview
MBR2060CT-I from Diodes Incorporated is a dual common-cathode Schottky barrier rectifier in TO-220AB package, rated 60 V reverse voltage and 10 A average forward current per leg (20 A total), with max 0.81 V forward voltage at 10 A and +25°C, used for polarity protection and recirculating diode functions in DC-DC converters and industrial power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the MBR2060CT-I datasheet, MBR2060CT-I pinout, MBR2060CT-I application, or MBR2060CT-I equivalent, key selection criteria include per-leg forward voltage drop at 10 A, thermal resistance (2 °C/W junction-to-case), peak surge current rating (180 A), and RoHS-compliant lead-free finish on matte tin terminals.
Technical Context
This dual-diode configuration shares a common cathode terminal, enabling independent anode connections for two parallel rectification paths. Each leg operates as a low-loss unidirectional switch with guard ring die construction to suppress edge breakdown and improve surge robustness.
Designed for commercial-grade power conversion, it supports single-phase half-wave rectification at 60 Hz with resistive/inductive loads; capacitance-loaded applications require 20% current derating. Thermal performance assumes mounting on a 45 mm × 20 mm × 12 mm heatsink per Diodes' recommended pad layout.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 60 V - Maximum repetitive reverse voltage each leg withstands without breakdown |
| IO (per leg) | 10 A - Continuous average forward current per diode leg at +25°C ambient |
| VF (max) | 0.81 V @ 10 A, +25°C - Forward voltage drop limiting conduction loss and self-heating |
| IFSM | 180 A - Non-repetitive peak surge current capability for transient load handling |
| RθJC | 2 °C/W - Junction-to-case thermal resistance enabling effective heatsink coupling |
| IR (max) | 0.1 mA @ 60 V, +25°C - Low leakage current preserving efficiency in blocking state |
| Polarity | Common-cathode - Anodes isolated, cathodes internally joined for dual-output rectification |
Pinout & Package
Package: TO-220AB (Type C), molded plastic case with UL 94V-0 flammability rating, matte tin-plated copper leadframe, weight ≈1.95 g. Terminals are solderable per MIL-STD-202, Method 208.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode 1 (Lead 1) | Input terminal for first diode leg | Accepts positive input for independent rectification path; electrically isolated from Anode 2 |
| Anode 2 (Lead 2) | Input terminal for second diode leg | Accepts separate positive input; enables dual-channel operation with shared cathode |
| Cathode (Lead 3) | Common output node | Joined cathodes deliver combined or independently filtered DC outputs; primary heat path to case |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Guard ring die construction | Suppresses surface leakage and edge avalanche, improving reliability under high dv/dt and temperature stress |
| Low VF at high current | 0.81 V max @ 10 A reduces I²R losses and thermal rise in high-current 12–48 V systems |
| 180 A IFSM rating | Withstands motor startup surges, capacitor inrush, and short-duration overloads without failure |
| RoHS-compliant lead-free finish | Matte tin plating ensures compatibility with Pb-free reflow processes and long-term solder joint integrity |
| AEC-Q101 qualified | Validated for automotive-grade reliability including temperature cycling, HTRB, and ESD testing |
Applications
| DC-DC Converter Output Stage | Industrial Motor Drive Snubber |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Used in synchronous buck converter output stage to rectify switched high-frequency AC into regulated 5–24 V DC for microcontrollers and sensors. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Dual-leg Schottky rectifier providing low-loss freewheeling path during low-side switch off-time. Use Value: 0.81 V VF minimizes conduction loss at 10 A, reducing thermal load and enabling compact heatsink design. | Use Scenario: Mounted across relay coils or brushed DC motor terminals to clamp inductive kickback voltage spikes. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Recirculating diode dissipating stored magnetic energy as heat during turn-off transitions. Use Value: 180 A IFSM handles repeated 50–100 A transient surges without degradation over >10⁶ cycles. |
| Redundant Power Supply OR-ing | LED Driver Polarity Protection |
Use Scenario: Employed in dual-input 12 V power supply modules to enable seamless switchover between primary and backup sources. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Common-cathode configuration allows independent anode connection to each supply rail with shared output bus. Use Value: Low IR (0.1 mA) prevents backfeed leakage between sources, ensuring isolation and fault containment. | Use Scenario: Placed in series with 24 V LED string inputs to prevent damage from reverse battery connection or wiring errors. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Polarity protection diode conducting only during correct polarity, blocking reverse voltage up to 60 V. Use Value: 60 V VRRM exceeds typical 24 V system transients (e.g., load dump), eliminating need for additional TVS clamping. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Schottky rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STPS20H60CG | Same TO-220AC package, 60 V/20 A total, VF = 0.72 V @ 10 A, RθJC = 2.5 °C/W | Higher VF tolerance margin but slightly lower thermal conductivity than MBR2060CT-I | Preferred where tighter VF distribution is required; verify heatsink interface for 0.5 °C/W higher RθJC |
| VB2060C-E3/45 | TO-220AB package, 60 V/20 A total, VF = 0.83 V @ 10 A, IFSM = 150 A, RoHS-compliant | Lower surge rating limits use in high-inrush motor control; identical pinout and footprint | Drop-in replacement when surge immunity is secondary to cost; confirm IFSM margin against worst-case load events |
Compared with STPS20H60CG and VB2060C-E3/45, MBR2060CT-I offers the lowest VF at 10 A among TO-220AB dual Schottkys and the highest IFSM rating, making it optimal for thermally constrained or surge-prone 12–48 V industrial power stages.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating junction temperature for MBR2060CT-I?
The MBR2060CT-I has an operating junction temperature range of –55°C to +150°C. Its thermal resistance (RθJC = 2 °C/W) means that at 10 A per leg and 0.81 V VF, junction temperature rise above case is ~81°C - requiring heatsinking to maintain TJ ≤ 150°C under full load.
Can MBR2060CT-I be used in automotive applications?
Yes - MBR2060CT-I is qualified to AEC-Q101 standards, including temperature cycling, high-temperature reverse bias, and ESD testing. It is approved for under-hood and cabin applications such as body control modules, infotainment power supplies, and lighting drivers where 60 V blocking and 10 A per leg are required.
Is the TO-220AB package electrically insulated?
No - the TO-220AB package used in MBR2060CT-I has an electrically conductive metal tab (cathode terminal). The tab must be electrically isolated from heatsinks using mica washers or insulating pads unless the heatsink is referenced to cathode potential.
How does MBR2060CT-I differ from MBRF2060CT?
MBRF2060CT uses the ITO-220AB (TO-220F-3) package with insulated tab, while MBR2060CT-I uses standard TO-220AB with conductive tab. Both share identical electrical specs, but MBRF2060CT eliminates need for electrical isolation hardware when mounted to grounded heatsinks.
