Product details
Overview
MBRB20200CT from Diodes Incorporated is a 20A dual common-cathode Schottky barrier rectifier in TO263AB (D2PAK) package, rated for 200V peak repetitive reverse voltage, with 0.89V max forward voltage at 10A/25°C and 0.1mA max leakage current at 200V/25°C. It serves as polarity protection and recirculating diode in DC power supplies and motor drive circuits.
For engineers reviewing the MBRB20200CT datasheet, MBRB20200CT pinout, MBRB20200CT application, or MBRB20200CT equivalent, key selection criteria include its dual-leg configuration, low VF at high current, AEC-Q101 qualification, thermal resistance (RθJC = 5°C/W), and TO263AB surface-mount package suitability for high-power density designs.
Technical Context
This dual Schottky rectifier integrates two independent 10A legs sharing a common cathode terminal, enabling synchronous rectification or dual-rail output paths. Its guard ring die construction enhances transient immunity, while the low forward voltage drop directly reduces conduction losses in high-frequency switching converters.
Rated for continuous operation from –55°C to +175°C junction temperature, it delivers 170A non-repetitive surge capability (8.3ms half-sine) and exhibits RθJA = 20°C/W on standard 2-inch Al board - critical for thermal management in compact industrial power modules.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 200 V - Maximum reverse blocking voltage per leg; defines safe operating range in 24–48V bus applications with voltage margin. |
| IO (per leg) | 10 A - Continuous average forward current rating per anode; supports 20A total output when both legs used in parallel configuration. |
| VF (max) | 0.89 V @ 10A, 25°C - Low conduction loss enables >92% efficiency in 12V/10A SMPS designs at room temperature. |
| IR (max) | 0.1 mA @ 200V, 25°C - Minimal leakage preserves standby power integrity in always-on systems. |
| RθJC | 5 °C/W - Enables direct heatsink mounting via exposed cathode tab; allows 130W max power dissipation at ΔT = 650°C. |
| IFSM | 170 A - Withstands inrush surges during hot-plug events in telecom and server PSUs without degradation. |
| AEC-Q101 | Qualified - Meets automotive-grade reliability requirements for under-hood power conversion and body electronics. |
Pinout & Package
Package: TO263AB (D2PAK), surface-mount, thermally enhanced plastic case with exposed cathode pad for PCB heatsinking. Weight: 1.6 g. Moisture sensitivity level: J-STD-020 Level 1.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode 1 (Lead 1) | Input terminal for first rectifier leg | Accepts AC or switched DC input; electrically isolated from Anode 2. |
| Anode 2 (Lead 2) | Input terminal for second rectifier leg | Enables dual-channel rectification or redundancy; shares no internal connection with Anode 1. |
| Cathode (Tab & Lead 3) | Common output node | Exposed metal tab serves as primary thermal path and electrical return; must be soldered to large copper area for thermal performance. |

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-20CPH02-M3 | Same 200V/20A rating, but TO-247AC package; higher RθJC (1.5°C/W) requires bolt-down heatsink. | Preferred for through-hole legacy designs with forced-air cooling; not surface-mount compatible. | Select when mechanical mounting constraints favor through-hole or when >200W dissipation demands lower thermal resistance. |
| ON Semiconductor MBR20200CT | Identical electrical specs and TO263AB package; differs in marking code and minor process variation (no AEC-Q101). | Approved for commercial-only use; excluded from automotive programs requiring AEC-Q101 validation. | Choose for cost-sensitive industrial applications where automotive qualification is unnecessary. |
Compared with VS-20CPH02-M3 and MBR20200CT, the MBRB20200CT uniquely combines AEC-Q101 qualification, TO263AB surface-mount compatibility, and validated 175°C operation - making it optimal for space-constrained automotive and industrial power modules requiring long-term reliability without heatsink bolts.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature and how does it affect thermal design?
The MBRB20200CT has a rated operating junction temperature range of –55°C to +175°C. At 175°C, its forward voltage drops to 0.75V (typ), improving conduction efficiency, but leakage rises to 10mA. Thermal design must ensure RθJC × PD + TA ≤ 175°C - using the 5°C/W junction-to-case resistance, a 10A/0.89V load (8.9W) requires ≤65°C ambient rise above heatsink temperature.
Is the common-cathode configuration internally isolated between the two anodes?
Yes. The MBRB20200CT contains two fully isolated Schottky die mounted on a shared cathode slug. Anode 1 and Anode 2 have no internal electrical connection - enabling independent control, such as separate transformer secondaries or split-rail inputs, while sharing a single output return path.
How does the guard ring structure improve reliability in real-world conditions?
The guard ring die construction surrounds the active junction with a doped region that redistributes electric field stress during voltage transients. This suppresses avalanche breakdown initiation, allowing the device to withstand 170A surge currents and repeated 200V reverse spikes without parameter drift - verified per AEC-Q101 stress tests including HTGB and TCT.
Can this part be used in linear regulator applications?
No. The MBRB20200CT is optimized for switching-mode rectification, not linear regulation. Its low VF and high IF ratings assume pulsed or high-frequency operation. In linear mode, sustained 10A DC would exceed its 8.9W power dissipation limit at typical ambient temperatures, risking thermal runaway without active cooling - unlike dedicated series pass devices with built-in thermal shutdown.
