Product details
Overview
SBR30A60CTBQ-13 from Diodes Incorporated is a 30A, 60V Super Barrier Rectifier (SBR®) diode in TO263AB (D2PAK) package, featuring 0.63V max forward voltage at 15A/25°C, 0.33mA max reverse leakage at 60V/25°C, and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive use as polarity protection and recirculation diode.
For engineers reviewing the SBR30A60CTBQ-13 datasheet, SBR30A60CTBQ-13 pinout, SBR30A60CTBQ-13 application, or SBR30A60CTBQ-13 equivalent, key selection criteria include avalanche ruggedness (6000W PARM, 600mJ EAS), low VF at high temperature, and IATF16949-manufactured supply chain traceability.
Technical Context
This SBR device replaces Schottky rectifiers in high-reliability automotive power rails where thermal runaway risk exists. Its patented barrier structure delivers 0.57V typical VF at 15A/25°C and only 0.55V at 15A/125°C - enabling cooler operation than standard Schottkys under elevated junction temperatures.
It supports 180A non-repetitive surge current (8.3ms half-sine) and exhibits 29ns reverse recovery time with 640pF junction capacitance at 4V - critical for minimizing switching losses in DC-DC converters and motor drive freewheeling paths.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 60V - Maximum repetitive reverse blocking voltage; defines safe operating range in 12V/24V automotive systems with load-dump transients. |
| IO | 30A - Average rectified output current; enables single-device solution for high-current battery protection or alternator output rectification. |
| VF Max | 0.63V @ 15A/25°C - Ultra-low forward drop reduces conduction loss by >30% vs. standard PN rectifiers, improving system efficiency and thermal margin. |
| IR Max | 0.33mA @ 60V/25°C - Low leakage ensures stable performance in high-temperature engine bay environments without thermal runaway risk. |
| tRR | 29ns - Fast reverse recovery minimizes switching loss and EMI in high-frequency synchronous rectifier applications. |
| EAS | 600mJ - Avalanche energy rating allows robust handling of inductive kickback in motor control and solenoid drive circuits. |
| RθJC | 9°C/W - Low junction-to-case thermal resistance enables effective heatsinking on PCB copper pads for sustained 30A operation. |
Pinout & Package
Package: TO263AB (D2PAK), surface-mount, thermally enhanced plastic package with exposed cathode pad; 1.6g mass; UL 94V-0 rated molding compound; moisture sensitivity level 1.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 (Anode) | Anode connection | Input terminal for forward conduction; electrically isolated metal tab on package back is not connected to anode. |
| Pin 2 (Cathode) | Cathode connection | Output terminal; tied directly to large exposed copper pad on underside for low-inductance, high-current return path and thermal dissipation. |
| Pin 3 (Cathode) | Cathode connection | Dual-cathode configuration provides parallel current path and reduced package inductance for high-di/dt applications. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 100% avalanche tested | Every unit validated to withstand 6000W peak avalanche power and 600mJ single-pulse energy - eliminates field failure from inductive switching stress. |
| Patented SBR technology | Superior ruggedness vs. Schottky diodes: higher breakdown tolerance and lower thermal coefficient of VF prevents runaway at >125°C junction. |
| Ultra-low VF at high TJ | 0.55V @ 15A/125°C - maintains efficiency in under-hood environments where ambient exceeds 85°C and junction reaches 150°C. |
| AEC-Q101 qualified | Qualified per automotive stress test standard including HTGB, HTRB, TCT, and ESD; PPAP-capable with full IATF16949 manufacturing traceability. |
| Green, RoHS-compliant | Halogen- and antimony-free (<900ppm Br/Cl, <1000ppm Sb); matte tin annealed terminals ensure reliable solder wetting and long-term intermetallic stability. |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar super barrier rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SBRT30A60CTBQ-13 | Same die, identical electrical specs, but uses alternate assembly site code ('T' instead of 'S' in marking); identical TO263AB package and thermal performance. | No functional difference; used interchangeably in AEC-Q101-compliant designs requiring dual-source procurement. | Select when supply chain diversification is required without design requalification. |
| MBR3060CTG | Standard Schottky rectifier; 0.72V VF max @ 15A/25°C, 1.0mA IR @ 60V/25°C, no AEC-Q101 qualification, lower EAS (not specified). | Suitable for industrial/non-automotive applications only; cannot replace SBR30A60CTBQ-13 in automotive safety-critical systems. | Choose only for cost-sensitive, non-automotive designs where thermal runaway risk is low and qualification is not mandated. |
Compared with SBRT30A60CTBQ-13, this part offers identical performance with alternate sourcing; versus MBR3060CTG, it delivers superior thermal stability, lower conduction loss, and certified automotive qualification - making it the sole choice for AEC-Q101-compliant designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature for continuous operation?
The SBR30A60CTBQ-13 has an operating junction temperature range of –55°C to +150°C. For continuous 30A operation, thermal design must maintain TJ ≤150°C using the 9°C/W RθJC value and appropriate PCB copper area; derating is required above 125°C ambient per Figure 4's pulse derating curve.
Is this diode suitable for synchronous rectification topologies?
No - the SBR30A60CTBQ-13 is a unidirectional, passive rectifier optimized for freewheeling and polarity protection. It lacks gate control and cannot be actively switched like a MOSFET; its 29ns tRR supports high-frequency hard-switching but does not enable synchronous operation.
Does the TO263AB package require thermal vias under the exposed pad?
Yes - the exposed cathode pad is electrically and thermally connected to both pins 2 and 3. To achieve the rated 9°C/W RθJC, at least six 0.3mm-diameter thermal vias (filled or plated) must connect the pad to inner-layer or backside copper planes, per Diodes' recommended pad layout (C = 5.08 × 1.10 mm, Y2 = 15.99 mm).
How does the SBR technology differ from standard Schottky diodes in failure mode?
SBR devices use a modified barrier structure that increases avalanche breakdown uniformity and energy absorption. Unlike Schottkys - which fail short-circuit under overvoltage - SBRs sustain controlled avalanche events up to 600mJ, preventing thermal runaway and enabling graceful degradation in motor drive or solenoid applications.
