Product details
Overview
MBRS1560CTH from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 15A, 60V dual-die Schottky barrier rectifier in TO-263AB (D2PAK) package, featuring 0.75V max forward voltage at 7.5A/25°C, 150A surge capability, and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive-grade reliability. It serves as a high-efficiency freewheeling or reverse-battery protection diode in DC/DC converters and car lighting systems.
For engineers reviewing the MBRS1560CTH datasheet, MBRS1560CTH pinout, MBRS1560CTH application, or MBRS1560CTH equivalent, key selection criteria include its 60V VRRM, 2°C/W junction-to-case thermal resistance, 10,000 V/μs dv/dt rating, and moisture sensitivity level 1 compliance - all critical for high-reliability power conversion designs.
Technical Context
The MBRS1560CTH integrates two independent Schottky die in a single TO-263AB thermally enhanced surface-mount package, enabling dual-channel operation without external paralleling. Its guard ring structure provides overvoltage protection, while matte tin-plated leads ensure solderability per J-STD-002.
Rated for continuous 15A forward current and 150A non-repetitive surge (8.3ms half-sine), it operates across –55°C to +150°C junction temperature range with 50°C/W junction-to-ambient thermal resistance under standard PCB mounting conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 60 V - Maximum repetitive reverse voltage; defines safe blocking capability in 48V automotive and industrial DC bus applications. |
| IF | 15 A - Continuous average forward current; supports high-power DC/DC stages without forced air cooling. |
| IFSM | 150 A - Peak surge current rating; withstands load dump transients in automotive electrical systems. |
| VF (max) | 0.75 V @ 7.5A, 25°C - Low conduction loss enables >92% efficiency in synchronous rectifier replacement roles. |
| RθJC | 2 °C/W - Low junction-to-case thermal resistance allows direct heatsinking via the exposed tab for thermal management. |
| TJ max | +150 °C - Extended junction temperature rating supports under-hood automotive deployment. |
| dv/dt | 10,000 V/μs - High critical rate of rise tolerance prevents false turn-on in fast-switching SMPS topologies. |
Pinout & Package

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-MBR1560CT-M3/45 | Same 15A/60V rating, but RθJC = 2.5°C/W; VF = 0.77V @ 7.5A/25°C; no AEC-Q101 qualification. | Lacks automotive qualification; suitable for industrial/commercial DC/DC where extended temp validation not required. | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs automotive compliance and thermal margin is acceptable. |
| ON Semiconductor MBR1560CT | Identical electrical specs and TO-263AB package; VF = 0.76V @ 7.5A/25°C; AEC-Q101 qualified per revision 1.0. | Direct functional match; validated for same automotive use cases but with different traceability and lot control protocols. | Preferred for multi-source BOMs requiring second-source assurance without design change. |
Compared with VS-MBR1560CT-M3/45 and MBR1560CT, the MBRS1560CTH offers tighter VF distribution (0.75V max), lower RθJC (2°C/W), and full AEC-Q101 documentation traceability - making it optimal for thermally constrained, safety-critical automotive deployments.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for MBRS1560CTH?
The MBRS1560CTH has a maximum junction temperature (TJ) rating of +150°C, verified per AEC-Q101 stress testing. This allows reliable operation in under-hood automotive environments and high-ambient industrial enclosures. Derating curves in the official datasheet define usable current vs. case temperature, with full 15A rated only below 110°C case temperature under typical PCB layout conditions.
Is MBRS1560CTH pin-compatible with other parts in the MBRS15xxCTH family?
Yes, all MBRS15xxCTH variants - including MBRS1535CTH, MBRS1545CTH, and MBRS15150CTH - share identical TO-263AB (D2PAK) package dimensions, pinout, and terminal configuration. The only difference is VRRM rating; therefore, MBRS1560CTH can be substituted within the same footprint for designs requiring 60V blocking capability without PCB modification.
Does MBRS1560CTH require special handling during reflow soldering?
No - MBRS1560CTH is rated Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (per J-STD-020), meaning it may be stored indefinitely at ≤30°C/60% RH and placed directly into standard lead-free reflow profiles without baking. Its matte tin-plated leads meet J-STD-002 for solderability, supporting both wave and reflow processes without post-solder cleaning.
What is the reverse leakage current specification for MBRS1560CTH at elevated temperature?
At TJ = 125°C and rated VR = 60V, the MBRS1560CTH specifies a maximum reverse leakage current (IR) of 10 mA per diode. This value is confirmed in the Electrical Specifications table on page 3 of the official datasheet (Version A2103) and reflects worst-case behavior under sustained high-temperature operation.
How does the guard ring feature improve reliability in MBRS1560CTH?
The guard ring in MBRS1560CTH is a diffusion-based edge termination structure that controls electric field distribution at the silicon periphery. It prevents premature avalanche breakdown under transient overvoltage events - such as load dump or ISO 7637-2 pulses - thereby improving long-term reliability and reducing field failure rates in automotive power rails.
