Product details
Overview
MBRF3045CT-LJ from Diodes Incorporated is a 30A dual common-cathode Schottky barrier rectifier in ITO-220AB package, rated for 45V peak reverse voltage, 0.62V max forward voltage at 15A/25°C, and 0.1mA max leakage current at 45V/25°C; used for polarity protection and recirculating diode functions in DC power supplies and motor drive circuits.
For engineers reviewing the MBRF3045CT-LJ datasheet, MBRF3045CT-LJ pinout, MBRF3045CT-LJ application, or MBRF3045CT-LJ equivalent, key selection criteria include its 200A non-repetitive surge rating, 4°C/W junction-to-case thermal resistance, AEC-Q101 qualification, RoHS/Green compliance, and ITO-220AB mechanical form factor with insulated tab.
Technical Context
This dual Schottky rectifier integrates two independent 15A legs sharing a common cathode terminal, enabling synchronous half-wave rectification or bidirectional freewheeling paths. Its guard ring die construction provides transient overvoltage protection without external snubbers.
Designed for high-efficiency DC-DC conversion and reverse-polarity safeguarding, it operates across –55°C to +150°C with thermal derating curves defined for both TO-220AB and ITO-220AB packages; the ITO-220AB variant features an insulated tab for direct heatsink mounting without isolation hardware.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 45 V - Maximum repetitive reverse blocking voltage per leg; defines safe operating range in unidirectional DC bus protection. |
| IO (per leg) | 15 A - Continuous average forward current per diode leg; supports 30A total dual-leg output when used in parallel configuration. |
| VF (max) | 0.62 V @ 15A, 25°C - Low conduction loss enables >92% efficiency in 12V–48V SMPS outputs. |
| IFSM | 200 A - Single half-sine surge capability allows robust handling of motor startup or capacitor inrush transients. |
| RθJC | 4 °C/W - Junction-to-case thermal resistance for ITO-220AB; enables 75W dissipation with 300°C/W heatsink interface. |
| IR (max) | 0.1 mA @ 45V, 25°C - Minimal leakage preserves battery standby life in always-on industrial controllers. |
| AEC-Q101 | Qualified - Meets automotive-grade reliability requirements for under-hood and infotainment power stages. |
Pinout & Package
Package: ITO-220AB (TO-220F-3), insulated tab, 3-terminal plastic case with matte tin-plated copper leadframe; UL 94V-0 molding compound, moisture sensitivity level 1.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 (Anode A) | First diode anode | Connects to input source side; accepts reverse-biased voltage up to 45V during freewheeling. |
| Pin 2 (Cathode) | Common cathode node | Shared output node for both diodes; must be routed with low-inductance trace for high-frequency switching stability. |
| Pin 3 (Anode B) | Second diode anode | Independent anode for second leg; enables dual-path rectification or redundant polarity protection. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Guard ring die construction | Suppresses edge breakdown during voltage transients, eliminating need for external TVS in 24V industrial PLC inputs. |
| Low VF (0.58V typ @ 15A, 125°C) | Reduces conduction loss by 35% vs. standard silicon rectifiers, lowering thermal load in sealed enclosures. |
| Insulated tab (ITO-220AB) | Enables direct mounting to grounded heatsinks without mica washers or thermal pads, simplifying assembly and improving thermal transfer. |
| Halogen & antimony free | Meets IPC-1752A material declaration requirements for aerospace and medical OEMs requiring full substance traceability. |
Applications
| DC Power Supply Input Stage | Motor Drive Freewheeling Path |
|---|---|

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-30CPH045 | Same 45V VRRM, 30A total, but TO-247AC package; RθJC = 1.5°C/W; VF = 0.65V max @ 15A. | Higher thermal performance but larger footprint; requires different heatsink interface and PCB cutout. | Select when junction temperature must stay <125°C under 25A continuous load with limited airflow. |
| ON Semiconductor MBR3045CT | Identical electrical specs, same TO-220AB (non-insulated) package; no isolated tab; RθJC = 2°C/W. | Lower thermal resistance but mandates insulating hardware for heatsink mounting; not drop-in for ITO-220AB layouts. | Select only if board layout already uses non-insulated TO-220AB footprint and isolation is handled externally. |
Compared with VS-30CPH045 and MBR3045CT, the MBRF3045CT-LJ uniquely combines AEC-Q101 qualification, ITO-220AB insulation, and 4°C/W thermal resistance-making it optimal for space-constrained automotive and industrial designs where safety isolation and reliability are co-prioritized.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature for MBRF3045CT-LJ?
The absolute maximum junction temperature is +150°C, with continuous operation supported from –55°C to +150°C ambient. Derating begins at +25°C ambient per Figure 4: at +100°C ambient, maximum average forward current drops to 7.5A per leg due to thermal resistance limits.
Is MBRF3045CT-LJ pin-compatible with MBR3045CT?
No-MBRF3045CT-LJ uses ITO-220AB (insulated tab) while MBR3045CT uses TO-220AB (non-insulated). Pin numbering matches (Anode–Cathode–Anode), but mechanical mounting differs: the insulated tab eliminates need for isolation hardware, whereas TO-220AB requires mica washers or silicone pads.
Does this part support reflow soldering?
Yes-MBRF3045CT-LJ is qualified for lead-free reflow per J-STD-020, with peak temperature tolerance up to 260°C for 30 seconds. The matte tin annealed finish ensures reliable wetting, and moisture sensitivity level 1 permits unlimited floor life without dry-pack requirements.
How does the guard ring structure improve reliability?
The integrated guard ring mitigates electric field crowding at the silicon periphery, raising the effective breakdown voltage margin by ~15% during fast transients. This reduces failure rate in 24V industrial controls exposed to ISO 16750-2 load dump events without adding external clamping components.
