Product details
Overview
MSB30M-13 from Diodes Incorporated is a 3.0A, 1000V surface-mount standard recovery bridge rectifier in MSBL package, featuring glass-passivated die construction, 1.1V max forward voltage at 3.0A/25°C, and 5μA max reverse leakage at 1000V/25°C. It delivers full-wave AC-to-DC conversion for compact switch-mode power supplies and LED drivers.
For engineers reviewing the MSB30M-13 datasheet, MSB30M-13 pinout, MSB30M-13 application, or MSB30M-13 equivalent, key selection criteria include peak repetitive reverse voltage (1000V), average output current rating (3.0A at TC = +120°C), thermal resistance (RθJC = 8°C/W), and UL recognition (E364304) for safety-critical AC/DC front-end designs.
Technical Context
This single-phase bridge rectifier integrates four standard recovery diodes in a monolithic MSBL package with internal schematic MB30M configuration. It supports 60Hz resistive/inductive loads without derating, but requires 20% current derating for capacitive loads per datasheet specification.
Thermal performance is defined by junction-to-case resistance of 8°C/W and junction-to-ambient of 11°C/W (on specified 15mm×12mm AL pad). Electrical behavior includes 35pF typical junction capacitance at 4V reverse bias and 100A non-repetitive surge rating for 8.3ms half-sine wave.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 1000 V - Peak repetitive reverse voltage withstand capability for AC line input protection |
| IO | 3.0 A - Average rectified output current at TC = +120°C, defining continuous DC load capacity |
| VF | 1.1 V - Max forward voltage per element at IF = 3.0A/25°C, directly impacting conduction loss and thermal rise |
| IR | 5 μA - Max reverse leakage current per element at VR = 1000V/25°C, critical for standby power integrity |
| IFSM | 100 A - Non-repetitive surge current rating (8.3ms half-sine), supporting inrush tolerance in adapters |
| RθJC | 8 °C/W - Junction-to-case thermal resistance, enabling direct heatsink mounting for thermal management |
| CT | 35 pF - Typical junction capacitance at VR = 4V/1MHz, influencing high-frequency switching noise coupling |

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 and 3.0A IO, but GBU package (10.3mm × 14.2mm × 3.6mm) - 2.5× larger footprint and 2.6× taller | Not suitable for space-constrained LED drivers or ultra-thin adapters requiring MSBL's 7.3mm × 6.6mm outline | Select only if board layout accommodates larger GBU footprint and thermal mass permits higher RθJA |
| GBU6K (Vishay) | Higher 6.0A IO rating and 1000V VRRM, but same GBU package; VF = 1.05V typ at 3A/25°C - marginally lower conduction loss | Over-spec'd current rating increases cost and footprint without benefit in 3A-targeted designs | Prefer only when future-proofing for >4A load growth or where GBU footprint is already allocated |
Compared with GBU3K and GBU6K, MSB30M-13 provides identical voltage/current ratings in a significantly smaller MSBL package with superior thermal resistance (RθJC = 8°C/W vs ~12°C/W for GBU), making it optimal for miniaturized, thermally constrained AC/DC front-ends.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature for MSB30M-13?
The MSB30M-13 has an operating junction temperature range of –55°C to +150°C. Its rated 3.0A average output current assumes case temperature (TC) of +120°C, verified under specified thermal conditions with a 15mm×12mm aluminum pad on a steel plate. Exceeding TC = +120°C requires current derating per the datasheet's thermal curves.
Is MSB30M-13 suitable for automotive applications?
MSB30M-13 is not AEC-Q200 qualified and lacks PPAP documentation or IATF 16949-specific manufacturing traceability. While Diodes offers automotive-grade variants, this part is intended for commercial/industrial use. For automotive systems, contact Diodes directly to request qualified alternatives meeting AEC-Q200 or AEC-Q101 requirements.
How does the MSBL package differ from GBU or KBU packages?
The MSBL package measures 7.3mm × 6.6mm × 1.4mm, offering a 60% smaller footprint and 60% lower profile than standard GBU (10.3mm × 14.2mm × 3.6mm) or KBU packages. Its thermal pad design enables lower RθJC (8°C/W vs ~12°C/W), and its lead-free matte tin plating meets strict SMT reflow profiles without voiding.
What is the meaning of the date code 'YWW' on MSB30M-13 marking?
The date code on MSB30M-13 is formatted as YWW: Y is the last digit of the year (e.g., '5' = 2025), and WW is the week number (01–53). This 3-character code (e.g., '523') indicates manufacture in week 23 of 2025. It is laser-marked on the green top surface adjacent to the MB30M product type code.
