Product details
Overview
SBR3U40P1-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a 40 V, 3.0 A Super Barrier Rectifier in PowerDI®123 package, engineered for high-efficiency DC-DC converters and AC-DC rectifiers. It delivers ultra-low forward voltage (0.47 V max at 3.0 A), 75 A non-repetitive surge capability, and operates up to +150°C junction temperature in automotive-grade AEC-Q101 qualified applications.
For engineers reviewing the SBR3U40P1-7 datasheet, SBR3U40P1-7 pinout, SBR3U40P1-7 application, or SBR3U40P1-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include forward voltage at rated current, reverse leakage at elevated temperature, surge robustness, thermal resistance (RθJS = 5°C/W), and AEC-Q101 qualification status for automotive power systems.
Technical Context
This Super Barrier Rectifier replaces conventional Schottky diodes in medium-current power conversion stages where low VF and high surge tolerance are critical. Its patented interlocking clip design enables 75 A IFSM while maintaining soft, fast switching with minimal reverse recovery charge.
The device uses a proprietary super barrier structure-distinct from planar Schottky or trench MOSFET-based designs-to achieve 0.34 V typical VF at 1.0 A and only 400 µA IR at 40 V/25°C, enabling higher efficiency than standard Schottkys without sacrificing ruggedness.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 40 V - Maximum blocking voltage before avalanche; suitable for 24 V system bus rectification with margin. |
| IO(AV) | 3.0 A - Continuous average forward current at TA = +25°C with recommended PCB layout. |
| VF(max) | 0.47 V at IF = 3.0 A - Directly reduces conduction loss in high-current paths, improving converter efficiency by ~0.5–1.2% vs. standard Schottky. |
| IFSM | 75 A (8.3 ms half-sine) - Withstands inrush and transient surges in SMPS input stages without failure. |
| IR(max) | 400 µA at VR = 40 V, TA = +25°C - Low leakage preserves standby power integrity in always-on circuits. |
| TJ(max) | +150°C - Enables operation in under-hood automotive environments and sealed industrial enclosures. |
| RθJS | 5°C/W - Low junction-to-solder thermal resistance allows effective heat transfer to copper pad, supporting compact thermal design. |
Pinout & Package
Package: PowerDI®123 - surface-mount, single-ended, cathode-band marked plastic package with matte tin-plated copper leadframe; UL 94V-0 rated, MSL Level 1, 0.018 g weight.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Input current terminal | Connected to source side (e.g., transformer secondary or switch node); accepts forward current flow into device. |
| Cathode | Output current terminal | Connected to output rail (e.g., bulk capacitor or regulator input); carries rectified current out of device. |
| Cathode Tab | Thermal & electrical return path | Exposed metal tab on bottom surface serves as primary thermal interface and low-inductance cathode connection to PCB ground plane. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low VF at rated current | 0.47 V max @ 3.0 A reduces conduction loss by ≥15% versus comparable 40 V Schottkys, directly improving light-load efficiency. |
| Patented interlocking clip construction | Enables 75 A surge rating without bond-wire limitations-critical for handling start-up transients in automotive DC-DC modules. |
| AEC-Q101 qualified | Validated for automotive power electronics including body control modules and infotainment power supplies per stress test requirements. |
| +150°C operating junction temperature | Supports placement near hot components (e.g., MOSFETs, inductors) without derating, simplifying thermal layout in space-constrained modules. |
| Halogen- and antimony-free "Green" construction | Meets EU RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) with Br+Cl <1500 ppm and Sb <1000 ppm-enabling compliance in global automotive and industrial programs. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar super barrier rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SBRT3U40P1-7 | Same die, identical electrical specs; differs only in tape-and-reel packaging (3000 vs. 5000 units/reel). | No functional difference; used interchangeably in automated assembly lines with compatible feeders. | Select based on line-side feeder compatibility and lot-size procurement needs. |
| SBRT3U40P1-13 | Identical electrical and thermal performance; differs in reel size (5000 units) and carrier tape width (12 mm vs. 8 mm). | Requires revalidation of pick-and-place nozzle and vision system calibration due to tape dimension change. | Prefer for high-volume production where larger reels reduce changeover frequency and operator intervention. |
Compared with SBRT3U40P1-7 and SBRT3U40P1-13, the SBR3U40P1-7 offers identical core performance but optimized for 3000-unit reels and 8 mm tape-making it ideal for pilot runs, NPI builds, and mixed-SKU lines requiring frequent material changes.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable soldering temperature for SBR3U40P1-7?
The SBR3U40P1-7 is rated for lead-free reflow per JEDEC J-STD-020, with peak temperature of 260°C for ≤30 seconds. Its matte tin finish over copper leadframe ensures reliable wetting and intermetallic formation without degradation of the super barrier junction or molding compound integrity.
Does SBR3U40P1-7 require a heatsink in standard FR-4 layouts?
No external heatsink is required when mounted on a 2 oz. copper FR-4 PCB using Diodes Incorporated's recommended pad layout (X2 = 4.10 mm, Y1 = 1.50 mm). The 5°C/W RθJS and 100°C/W RθJA enable full 3.0 A operation at +70°C ambient without exceeding +150°C junction temperature.
How does SBR3U40P1-7 compare to standard Schottky rectifiers in reverse leakage?
At 40 V and +125°C, SBR3U40P1-7 exhibits ≤40 mA IR-comparable to high-performance Schottkys-but achieves this with significantly lower VF (0.47 V vs. 0.55–0.65 V). Its super barrier architecture avoids the high-temperature leakage runaway common in conventional Schottkys.
Is SBR3U40P1-7 suitable for synchronous rectification topologies?
No-it is a unidirectional, passive rectifier and cannot replace MOSFETs in synchronous rectification. However, its soft switching and low Qrr make it an excellent choice for quasi-resonant or LLC secondary-side rectification where gate drive complexity must be avoided.
