Product details
Overview
MRS30M from Diodes Incorporated is a 3.0A surface-mount fast recovery bridge rectifier with 1000V peak repetitive reverse voltage, 250ns reverse recovery time, and 1.3V forward voltage at 3A/25°C. It serves as a compact, EMI-optimized AC–DC full-wave rectification device in switch-mode power supplies, LED drivers, and battery chargers.
For engineers reviewing the MRS30M datasheet, MRS30M pinout, MRS30M application, or MRS30M equivalent, key selection criteria include its MSBL package thermal performance (RθJC = 2°C/W), UL recognition (E364304), RoHS- and halogen-free compliance, and suitability for high-reliability consumer and telecom power stages.
Technical Context
The MRS30M integrates four fast recovery diodes in a single-phase bridge configuration with glass-passivated junctions. Its 250ns tRR and low 45pF junction capacitance support high-frequency switching up to 100kHz in SMPS front-end rectification.
Rated for 3.0A average output current at TC = +130°C and 100A non-repetitive surge capability, it delivers robust operation under transient overloads while maintaining stable thermal resistance (RθJC = 2°C/W) when mounted on an aluminum heatsink plate.
Key Specifications

| VF (at IF = 3A, TA = +25°C) | 1.3 V - Low conduction loss contributing to >85% typical system efficiency in 12–24V adapters |
| IR (at VR = 1000V, TA = +25°C) | 5 μA - Minimal leakage ensures stable blocking in high-impedance standby circuits |
| RθJC | 2 °C/W - Enables direct thermal coupling to heatsink for reliable 3A continuous operation |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar bridge rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| GBU4K (ON Semiconductor) | Same 1000V VRRM, 4A IO, but larger GBU package (10.5 × 14.2 mm); tRR = 500ns | Higher current rating but slower recovery; less suitable for >50kHz designs | Select when higher surge margin is prioritized over board area and switching speed |
| MB10F (Vishay) | 1000V VRRM, 1.0A IO, smaller MB-10 package (12.7 × 12.7 mm); tRR = 250ns | Lower current rating limits use to sub-15W adapters; same recovery performance | Select only for low-power, cost-sensitive applications where 3A headroom is unnecessary |
Compared with GBU4K and MB10F, the MRS30M uniquely balances 3A current handling, 250ns recovery, and ultra-compact MSBL footprint-making it optimal for space-constrained, high-frequency, mid-power (<65W) AC–DC conversion where thermal resistance and EMI behavior are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature for the MRS30M?
The MRS30M supports junction temperatures from –55°C to +150°C. Its 3.0A current rating is specified at TC = +130°C, meaning the case temperature must be maintained at or below this value under continuous load using appropriate PCB copper area or heatsinking per the datasheet's thermal resistance values (RθJC = 2°C/W).
Is the MRS30M suitable for automotive applications?
The MRS30M is not AEC-Q200 qualified and is not intended for automotive use unless explicitly validated by the customer. Diodes offers separate AEC-Q200-compliant bridge rectifiers (e.g., ABS20Q, GBU6J-Q) with PPAP documentation and IATF 16949 manufacturing control for automotive-grade deployment.
How does the MSBL package compare thermally to standard bridge packages like GBU or KBU?
The MSBL package delivers RθJC = 2°C/W - significantly lower than typical GBU (≈4–5°C/W) or KBU (≈6–8°C/W) packages - due to its optimized leadframe-to-case thermal path and direct metal pad contact. This allows higher current density in thinner form factors without external heatsinks when properly mounted on ≥120 mm² copper area.
Does the MRS30M require derating for capacitive loads?
Yes. Per the datasheet, the average output current must be derated by 20% when used with capacitive-input filters (common in SMPS). For example, the 3.0A rating becomes 2.4A under full-capacitor-input conditions to prevent excessive peak diode currents and ensure reliability over lifetime.
