Product details
Overview
SBR20U100CTFP from Diodes Incorporated is a 20A dual common-cathode Super Barrier Rectifier rated for 100V peak repetitive reverse voltage, featuring low forward voltage (0.63V typ. @ 20A, 25°C), soft fast switching, and high-temperature stability up to +175°C junction temperature. It is designed for high-efficiency AC/DC secondary-side rectification in server power supplies, telecom rectifiers, and industrial SMPS.
For engineers reviewing the SBR20U100CTFP datasheet, SBR20U100CTFP pinout, SBR20U100CTFP application, or SBR20U100CTFP equivalent, key selection criteria include its ITO220AB insulated package with 2000V isolation, 20A total average output current capability, 200A non-repetitive surge rating, and thermal resistance of 4°C/W (junction-to-case).
Technical Context
This device implements patented Super Barrier Rectifier (SBR®) technology - a planar-structured, low-leakage alternative to Schottky diodes - delivering lower VF than standard silicon PN rectifiers while maintaining superior high-temperature IR stability. Its dual common-cathode configuration enables synchronous-like efficiency in center-tapped transformer topologies.
The ITO220AB package provides electrical isolation between terminals and heatsink (2000VAC, 3s), enabling direct mounting to grounded heat sinks without insulating hardware. Thermal performance is characterized by RθJC = 4°C/W and derating to zero current at +175°C ambient under specified heatsinking conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 100 V - Maximum peak reverse voltage the device blocks reliably in repetitive operation; defines usable input voltage range in bridge or center-tapped rectifier designs. |
| IO (Total) | 20 A - Total average forward current across both legs; supports high-power 12V/5V/3.3V output rails in multi-output SMPS. |
| VF @ 20A, 25°C | 0.63 V typ. - Low conduction loss reduces secondary-side power dissipation and improves system efficiency by ~0.5–1.2% vs. standard FRDs. |
| IFSM | 200 A - Non-repetitive surge current handling; withstands inrush and transient overloads without degradation in typical 8.3ms half-sine events. |
| RθJC | 4 °C/W - Junction-to-case thermal resistance for ITO220AB; enables precise heatsink sizing when mounted with thermal interface material. |
| IR @ 100V, 125°C | 25 mA max - Reverse leakage at elevated temperature; remains stable under hot-switching conditions where conventional Schottkys fail. |
| TJ Range | –65°C to +175°C - Extended operating junction temperature; supports high-density, convection-cooled industrial and telecom power designs. |
Pinout & Package
Package: ITO220AB - Insulated TO-220 variant with electrically isolated metal tab (2000VAC isolation), 3-terminal dual-diode configuration (Anode1 / Anode2 / Cathode), matte tin-plated copper leadframe, UL 94V-0 molded plastic body, weight ≈1.65 g.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 (Left) | Anode 1 | Input terminal for first rectifier leg; connects to one secondary winding end in center-tapped transformer or one AC line in full-wave configuration. |
| Pin 2 (Center) | Cathode (Common) | Shared cathode node; outputs combined DC rail; requires low-inductance, high-current trace routing to minimize switching noise. |
| Pin 3 (Right) | Anode 2 | Input terminal for second rectifier leg; ties to opposite secondary winding end or second AC line; symmetrical layout enables balanced current sharing. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Super Barrier Rectifier (SBR®) Technology | Patented planar structure delivers Schottky-like VF with silicon PN diode's high-temperature IR stability and avalanche ruggedness. |
| Soft, Fast Switching | Low reverse recovery charge (Qrr) and soft recovery waveform reduce EMI generation and snubber losses in high-frequency SMPS (>100 kHz). |
| ITO220AB Isolation | 2000VAC isolation between leads and heatsink allows direct mounting to chassis-grounded heatsinks - eliminates mica washers and thermal pads. |
| High-Temp Stability | Leakage stays ≤25 mA at 100V/125°C - enables reliable operation in sealed, high-ambient environments like base station power modules. |
| Green Construction | Halogen- and antimony-free molding compound (<900 ppm Br/Cl, <1000 ppm Sb); RoHS 3 compliant with lead-free matte tin terminations. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-current, high-voltage super barrier rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vishay VS-20CPH05-M3 | 50V VRRM, 20A IO, TO220AC package (non-isolated), VF = 0.52V @ 20A | Limited to ≤50V systems; requires insulating hardware for heatsink mounting | Select only for cost-sensitive 50V designs where isolation is managed externally. |
| ON Semiconductor MUR20100CT | 100V VRRM, 20A IO, TO220AB (non-isolated), VF = 0.92V @ 20A, faster trr but higher VF | Higher conduction loss; no isolation; suitable where EMI priority outweighs efficiency | Prefer when ultra-fast recovery is mandatory and thermal budget permits higher VF penalty. |
Compared with VS-20CPH05-M3 and MUR20100CT, SBR20U100CTFP uniquely combines 100V rating, 0.63V VF, and 2000V isolation in one package - eliminating external insulation and enabling higher efficiency in space-constrained, high-reliability 48–54V telecom and server applications.

FAQ
What is the difference between SBR20U100CTFP and SBR20U100CT?
The SBR20U100CTFP uses the ITO220AB package with electrically isolated metal tab (2000VAC isolation), while SBR20U100CT uses the standard TO220AB package without isolation. Both share identical electrical specs, but the FP suffix denotes the insulated variant required for direct heatsink mounting in grounded-chassis systems.
Can SBR20U100CTFP replace a standard Schottky rectifier in a 100V design?
Yes - it replaces Schottkys in 100V applications where high-temperature leakage is problematic. Unlike Schottkys, its IR remains ≤25 mA at 125°C and 100V, avoiding thermal runaway. However, its VF is slightly higher than ultra-low-VF Schottkys (e.g., 0.52V), trading marginal conduction loss for ruggedness and stability.
Is heatsinking required for SBR20U100CTFP at 20A continuous current?
Yes - at 20A and 25°C ambient, junction temperature exceeds 150°C without heatsinking. With the specified 45mm × 20mm × 12mm black aluminum heatsink (Note 7), it sustains 20A up to +85°C ambient. Derating curves show zero current capability above +175°C ambient even with optimal cooling.
Does SBR20U100CTFP support lead-free reflow soldering per J-STD-020?
Yes - its matte tin finish is qualified for lead-free reflow per J-STD-020D, with peak temperature tolerance up to 260°C for 10 seconds. The UL 94V-0 molding compound and internal construction are fully compatible with standard Pb-free assembly processes used in industrial and telecom manufacturing.
