Product details
Overview
SBR2A40SA-13 from Diodes Incorporated is a 2.0A Super Barrier Rectifier (SBR®) in SMA package, rated for 40V peak repetitive reverse voltage, with max forward voltage of 0.55V at 2.0A and leakage current ≤500µA at 40V/25°C. It serves as a freewheeling or output rectifier in high-efficiency DC-DC converters and SMPS.
For engineers reviewing the SBR2A40SA-13 datasheet, SBR2A40SA-13 pinout, SBR2A40SA-13 application, or SBR2A40SA-13 equivalent, key selection criteria include low VF for conduction loss reduction, soft switching for EMI control, 150°C junction rating for thermal robustness, RoHS/Green compliance, and SMA footprint compatibility with automated assembly.
Technical Context
This SBR device uses patented super barrier technology to achieve lower forward voltage than Schottky diodes while maintaining significantly lower reverse leakage than standard PN junction rectifiers. Its soft, fast recovery minimizes voltage overshoot and ringing during turn-off in inductive switching circuits.
Designed for operation up to +150°C junction temperature, it supports high-density power designs where thermal management is constrained. The SMA package provides standardized surface-mount compatibility with JEDEC MS-013AC outline and 110°C/W junction-to-ambient thermal resistance on a 1"×1", 2 oz. copper PCB.

|---|---|
Use Scenario: Secondary-side synchronous rectification replacement in 12V/19V output rails of 80 PLUS Titanium PSUs. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Freewheeling rectifier conducting during low-side MOSFET off-time in active-clamp forward or LLC resonant converters. Use Value: 0.55V VF reduces conduction loss by ~18% vs. standard 0.67V Schottky, improving full-load efficiency by 0.3–0.5%. | Use Scenario: Output rectification in 20V/3A USB-C Power Delivery adapters operating at 200–500 kHz switching frequency. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Uncontrolled rectifier in flyback secondary stage, handling continuous 2A average current with minimal thermal rise. Use Value: 150°C TJ rating allows sustained operation at 95°C ambient without derating, supporting compact enclosure designs. |
| Industrial PLC I/O Module | Automotive Infotainment DC-DC |
Use Scenario: Reverse polarity protection and back-EMF clamping for 24V solenoid drivers in programmable logic controller output stages. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Freewheeling diode across inductive load, dissipating stored energy during MOSFET turn-off. Use Value: Soft recovery limits voltage overshoot to <35V, preventing damage to 40V-rated gate drivers and reducing snubber component count. | Use Scenario: Input rectification in 5V/3A buck converter supplying SoC and display subsystems in head unit power tree. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Input-stage bridge rectifier (single diode in half-wave configuration) for auxiliary 12V-to-5V conversion. Use Value: 500µA IR at 25°C and <100µA at 85°C ensures <10µW standby dissipation, meeting automotive OEM quiescent current targets. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar super barrier rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SBRT2A40S-13 | Same die, enhanced surge rating (IFSM = 20A), identical VF/IR/TJ specs | Better suited for high-inrush applications like motor drives or hot-swap circuits | Select when IFSM margin >15A is required; otherwise functionally interchangeable |
| MBR240-TP | Standard Schottky; VF = 0.52V (typ), but IR = 1000µA @ 40V/25°C - double SBR2A40SA-13 leakage | Higher standby power consumption; unsuitable for low-quiescent systems | Choose only if cost sensitivity outweighs leakage and thermal constraints |
Compared with SBRT2A40S-13, SBR2A40SA-13 offers adequate surge robustness for most SMPS use cases at lower cost; versus MBR240-TP, it delivers half the leakage at same VF, enabling tighter thermal and standby budgets in regulated power systems.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable soldering temperature profile for SBR2A40SA-13?
The device is qualified for lead-free reflow per JEDEC J-STD-020, with peak temperature up to 260°C for ≤30 seconds. Preheat ramp rate must not exceed 3°C/s, and time above 217°C shall be 60–150 seconds. Moisture sensitivity level 1 eliminates bake requirements prior to assembly.
Does SBR2A40SA-13 require a heatsink in a 2A continuous application?
No heatsink is required if PCB layout follows recommended pad dimensions (per datasheet Figure "Suggested Pad Layout") on 1"×1", 2 oz. copper. At 2A and 25°C ambient, calculated junction temperature is ~105°C - within the 150°C limit. Derating begins above 75°C ambient per Figure 5.
How does the soft recovery characteristic affect EMI in a 300kHz flyback converter?
Soft recovery reduces di/dt during turn-off, suppressing high-frequency ringing above 30MHz. Measured conducted EMI in a reference 300kHz flyback drops 4–6dB in the 30–100MHz band compared to standard Schottky diodes with abrupt recovery, easing CISPR-32 Class B compliance.
Can SBR2A40SA-13 replace a 1N5819 in an existing design?
Yes - same SMA package, pin-compatible, and electrically superior: lower VF (0.55V vs. 0.6V typ), lower IR (500µA vs. 1mA), and higher TJ rating (150°C vs. 125°C). No layout change needed; expect improved efficiency and thermal margin.
