Product details
Overview
MRS30M from Diodes Incorporated is a 3.0A surface-mount fast recovery bridge rectifier rated for 1000V peak repetitive reverse voltage, 1.3V forward voltage at 3A/25°C, 250ns reverse recovery time, and 5μA leakage current at 1000V/25°C; used in AC–DC bridge full-wave rectification for LED lighting power supplies and SMPS input stages.
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), fast tRR for high-frequency switching efficiency, glass-passivated die reliability, and UL recognition for safety-critical power conversion designs.
Technical Context
The MRS30M integrates four fast recovery diodes in a single-phase bridge configuration with common-cathode and common-anode terminals. Its 250ns reverse recovery time enables operation up to ~100kHz in offline SMPS without excessive switching loss.
Thermal design is supported by low junction-to-case resistance (2°C/W) when mounted on an aluminum plate, and its glass-passivated die construction ensures stable VRRM and IR over temperature and long-term reliability under surge conditions (100A IFSM).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 1000 V - Withstands peak line voltage surges in universal-input (85–265VAC) offline converters |
| IO (TC = +130°C) | 3.0 A - Continuous average output current capability at elevated case temperature |
| tRR | 250 ns - Enables efficient high-frequency rectification with reduced switching loss and EMI |
| VF @ 3A, 25°C | 1.3 V - Directly determines conduction loss and thermal rise in bridge configuration |
| IR @ 1000V, 25°C | 5 μA - Low leakage preserves efficiency in high-impedance hold-up and standby circuits |
| RθJC | 2 °C/W - Allows direct heatsinking to PCB copper or metal core for thermal management |
Pinout & Package
Package: MSBL - Surface-mount, compact thin-profile molded plastic package (7.30 × 6.60 × 1.40 mm), UL 94V-0 rated, moisture sensitivity level 1, matte tin lead finish.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 (Marked) | AC Input Terminal (Anode of D1 / Cathode of D2) | Identifies polarity for correct AC line connection; misorientation causes open-circuit or short |
| Pin 2 | DC Positive Output (Common Cathode) | Delivers rectified positive voltage; connects to bulk capacitor and downstream converter |
| Pin 3 | AC Input Terminal (Anode of D3 / Cathode of D4) | Second AC input node; completes full-wave bridge path with Pin 1 |
| Pin 4 | DC Negative Output (Common Anode) | Reference return path for DC output; ties to system ground or negative rail |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Glass passivated die construction | Ensures stable VRRM and IR over 150°C operating range and prevents surface degradation during humid reflow |
| EMI-optimized filter rectifier design | Low junction capacitance (45pF) and controlled dV/dt response reduce high-frequency noise injection into AC lines |
| Compact MSBL package | Enables high-density layout in space-constrained adapters and LED drivers without sacrificing thermal performance |
| UL Recognized Component (E364304) | Validates safety compliance for end-equipment certification without additional system-level testing overhead |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar bridge rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| GBU3K (ON Semiconductor) | Same 1000V VRRM, 3A IO, but GBU package (larger, through-hole); tRR = 250ns, VF = 1.1V @ 3A | Requires PCB through-hole mounting; higher RθJA (35°C/W) limits power density | Select for legacy through-hole designs where board real estate is not constrained |
| GBU6K (Vishay) | Higher 6A IO rating, same 1000V VRRM and 250ns tRR; VF = 1.15V @ 6A; larger GBU package | Over-specified current capacity increases cost and footprint without benefit in 3A designs | Choose only if future design scaling to >4A is planned and thermal headroom is critical |
Compared with GBU3K and GBU6K, the MRS30M delivers identical electrical performance in a surface-mount MSBL package with superior thermal resistance (RθJC = 2°C/W vs. ~4°C/W for GBU), enabling higher power density and lower profile in modern compact adapters and LED drivers.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature for the MRS30M?
The MRS30M supports continuous operation from –55°C to +150°C junction temperature. Its rated average output current of 3.0A is specified at TC = +130°C, meaning it must be thermally managed-typically via copper pour or aluminum substrate-to maintain TJ ≤ 150°C under full load.
Is the MRS30M suitable for automotive applications?
The MRS30M is not AEC-Q101 qualified and is not recommended for automotive powertrain or safety-critical systems. While it operates across –55°C to +150°C, Diodes explicitly states that automotive-grade variants require separate qualification, PPAP capability, and IATF 16949 manufacturing-none of which apply to this standard part.
How does the MSBL package compare thermally to traditional GBU packages?
The MSBL package offers RθJC = 2°C/W (measured per element on aluminum plate), significantly lower than typical GBU packages (~3.5–4.5°C/W). This enables more efficient heat transfer to the PCB, supporting higher power density in space-constrained designs without external heatsinks.
Does the MRS30M require derating for capacitive loads?
Yes. Per the datasheet, the average rectified output current must be derated by 20% when used with capacitive-input filters-a common configuration in SMPS and adapters. At full 3.0A rating, this implies a maximum usable current of 2.4A in such topologies to avoid overheating or premature failure.
