Product details
Overview
MBRAD1560H from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 15 A, 60 V AEC-Q101-qualified Schottky barrier rectifier in ThinDPAK package, optimized for low forward voltage (0.70 V at 15 A, 25°C) and high surge capability (250 A, 8.3 ms), used in automotive DC/DC converters and reverse battery protection circuits.
For engineers reviewing the MBRAD1560H datasheet, MBRAD1560H pinout, MBRAD1560H application, or MBRAD1560H equivalent, key selection criteria include junction-to-lead thermal resistance (2.2 °C/W), moisture sensitivity level (J-STD-020 Level 1), and TJ max rating (150°C) for under-hood automotive deployment.
Technical Context
The MBRAD1560H employs a single-die Schottky structure with matte tin-plated leads and UL 94V-0 molding compound, enabling automated SMT placement and meeting JESD201 Class 2 whisker resistance. Its low VF and high IFSM support high-efficiency power conversion in space-constrained automotive modules.
Thermal performance is defined by RθJL = 2.2 °C/W (with ideal heatsink) and RθJA = 12 °C/W (on 2" × 3" × 0.25" Al plate), supporting continuous 15 A operation within -55°C to +150°C junction range while maintaining <100 µA IR at 25°C and rated VR.

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-15BQ060P-M3/45 | Same 15 A / 60 V rating; VF = 0.67 V @ 15 A, but RθJA = 15 °C/W (higher thermal resistance) | Lacks AEC-Q101 qualification; not approved for automotive under-hood use | Acceptable for industrial DC/DC where qualification isn't mandated and board layout allows larger heatsinking |
| ON Semiconductor MBR1560CT | TO-220AB package (through-hole); VF = 0.72 V @ 15 A; IFSM = 200 A (lower surge rating) | Not surface-mountable; requires wave solder or hand assembly; unsuitable for automated high-volume lines | Only viable where legacy through-hole assembly remains in production or prototyping demands mechanical robustness over density |
Compared with VS-15BQ060P-M3/45 and MBR1560CT, the MBRAD1560H uniquely combines AEC-Q101 compliance, ThinDPAK SMT compatibility, and superior thermal resistance (2.2 °C/W RθJL), making it the only choice for thermally dense, high-reliability automotive power modules.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for the MBRAD1560H?
The MBRAD1560H has a maximum junction temperature (TJ max) of +150°C, validated per AEC-Q101 stress testing requirements. This rating enables reliable operation in under-hood automotive environments where ambient temperatures exceed 105°C, provided thermal design maintains junction temperature below this limit using the specified RθJL and PCB copper area.
Is the MBRAD1560H qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, the MBRAD1560H is AEC-Q101 qualified, meaning it has passed accelerated stress tests including high-temperature operating life, temperature cycling, and unbiased highly accelerated stress testing. This qualification confirms suitability for automotive powertrain, body, and chassis applications where reliability under harsh thermal and mechanical conditions is mandatory.
What does the marking code '1560' on the MBRAD1560H indicate?
The marking code '1560' laser-etched on the top surface of the MBRAD1560H denotes its electrical rating: '15' signifies 15 A forward current, and '60' indicates 60 V repetitive peak reverse voltage. This matches the device's absolute maximum ratings and is consistent across all units in the MBRAD1560H production lot.
How does the ThinDPAK package of the MBRAD1560H improve thermal performance?
The ThinDPAK package of the MBRAD1560H features an exposed cathode pad that serves as both electrical connection and primary thermal path. With a junction-to-lead thermal resistance (RθJL) of 2.2 °C/W when mounted on an ideal heatsink, it enables efficient heat transfer directly into PCB copper pours-critical for sustaining 15 A continuous current in compact automotive modules.
What is the reverse leakage current specification for the MBRAD1560H at elevated temperature?
At TJ = 125°C and rated VR = 60 V, the MBRAD1560H exhibits a maximum reverse leakage current (IR) of 20 mA, measured under 30 ms pulse conditions. This value is critical for reverse battery protection designs, where low leakage ensures minimal standby power loss while maintaining robust fault blocking capability across the full automotive temperature range.
