Product details
Overview
MBR735 from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 7.5A, 35V Schottky barrier rectifier in TO-220AC package, featuring low forward voltage (0.57V at 7.5A/125°C), 150A surge capability, and AEC-Q101 qualification option. It serves as a high-efficiency output rectifier in DC-DC converters and switching power supplies where thermal performance and reliability under repetitive surge stress are critical.
For engineers reviewing the MBR735 datasheet, MBR735 pinout, MBR735 application, or MBR735 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 35V VRRM rating, 5°C/W junction-to-case thermal resistance, TO-220AC mounting compatibility, and verified performance at 125°C junction temperature in high-duty-cycle SMPS designs.
Technical Context
The MBR735 employs a single-die Schottky structure with guard ring overvoltage protection, enabling stable operation up to 150°C junction temperature. Its 10,000 V/µs dV/dt rating supports fast-switching topologies without spurious turn-on.
Thermally, it delivers 15°C/W junction-to-ambient resistance in standard PCB mount configuration and achieves 150A non-repetitive surge current handling per JEDEC JESD201 Class 2 whisker-tested matte tin leads.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 35 V - Maximum reverse blocking voltage before breakdown; defines usable input/output voltage range in buck or flyback secondary side |
| IF | 7.5 A - Continuous forward current rating at 25°C ambient; derates to ~4.5A at 100°C case temperature per curve data |
| VF @ 7.5A/125°C | 0.57 V - Low conduction loss enabling >92% efficiency in 12V-output 50W DC-DC converters |
| IFSM | 150 A - Peak non-repetitive surge current for 8.3ms half-sine; withstands startup inrush and transient load dumps |
| RθJC | 5 °C/W - Confirmed thermal path from die to case; enables direct heatsink mounting without thermal interface degradation |
| TJ max | 150 °C - Maximum allowable junction temperature; supports operation in sealed industrial enclosures without forced air |
Pinout & Package
Package: TO-220AC - 3-terminal through-hole package with isolated tab (cathode-connected), matte tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002 solderability, UL 94V-0 molding compound, and 0.56 N·m maximum mounting torque.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Input current terminal | Connected to transformer secondary or switch node; accepts 7.5A continuous forward current |
| Cathode | Output current terminal | Electrically tied to metal tab; must be electrically isolated from heatsink unless cathode-referenced design |
| Tab (Case) | Cathode connection | Provides primary thermal path to heatsink; not insulated - requires isolation washer if mounted to grounded chassis |
Key Features

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-75SQ030 | 30V VRRM, 75A IFSM, TO-220AC, VF = 0.49V @ 7.5A/25°C | Lower voltage rating limits use to ≤24V systems; higher surge rating suits motor drive snubbers | Select when lower VF at room temperature is prioritized and system VRRM margin permits 30V rating |
| ON Semiconductor MBR735CT | 35V VRRM, dual common-cathode configuration, same VF/thermal specs, TO-220AB package | Dual-diode layout supports center-tapped transformer or dual-output designs; different pinout invalidates drop-in replacement | Choose only when dual-diode topology is required; not a pin-compatible substitute for MBR735 |
Compared with VS-75SQ030 and MBR735CT, the MBR735 provides optimal balance of 35V VRRM headroom, 150A surge robustness, and proven AEC-Q101 qualification path-making it preferred for 36–48V industrial and automotive auxiliary supplies where reliability under thermal cycling is critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for the MBR735?
The MBR735 has a maximum junction temperature (TJ max) of +150°C, confirmed per absolute maximum ratings table and validated across thermal characterization curves. This rating allows sustained operation in sealed enclosures or high-ambient environments when paired with appropriate heatsinking. The MBR735 maintains specified electrical performance up to this limit, with forward voltage dropping to 0.57V at 7.5A/125°C junction temperature.
Is the MBR735 pin-compatible with other TO-220AC Schottky rectifiers?
The MBR735 uses standard TO-220AC pinout: anode (lead 1), cathode (lead 2), and electrically connected tab (cathode). It is mechanically compatible with all TO-220AC footprints but electrically distinct from dual-diode variants like MBR735CT. Always verify polarity marking and thermal pad isolation requirements before substitution, as tab connectivity differs between manufacturers.
Does the MBR735 meet automotive qualification standards?
The base MBR735 is not AEC-Q101 qualified; however, the MBR735H variant is explicitly listed as AEC-Q101 qualified in TSC's ordering information. The "H" suffix denotes full stress testing per AEC-Q101 Rev D, including temperature cycling, humidity bias HAST, and mechanical shock. For automotive body electronics or infotainment power supplies, specify MBR735H to ensure compliance.
What is the typical forward voltage of the MBR735 at full rated current?
At 7.5A and 125°C junction temperature, the MBR735 exhibits a typical forward voltage (VF) of 0.57V, per electrical specifications table. At 25°C, VF is not specified for MBR735 in the provided data, but adjacent variants (MBR745) show 0.75V max at 7.5A/25°C. The 0.57V value directly enables high-efficiency operation in thermally demanding applications.
How does the guard ring feature improve reliability in the MBR735?
The guard ring in the MBR735 prevents edge-induced avalanche breakdown during voltage transients by controlling electric field distribution at the silicon periphery. This structure is confirmed in TSC's features list and enables reliable operation under ISO 7637-2 Pulse 1 and Pulse 4a transients without parameter shift or catastrophic failure, particularly in automotive and industrial 12–48V systems.
