Product details
Overview
SBR3U40S1F-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a 40 V, 3 A ultra-low VF super barrier rectifier in SOD123F package, featuring 0.49 V max forward voltage at 3 A and 180 µA max reverse leakage at 40 V/25°C. It delivers high surge capability (50 A IFSM), operates up to +150°C junction temperature, and is qualified to AEC-Q standards for automotive-grade reliability - used in DC-DC converter output stages and reverse-polarity protection circuits.
For engineers reviewing the SBR3U40S1F-7 datasheet, SBR3U40S1F-7 pinout, SBR3U40S1F-7 application, or SBR3U40S1F-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include forward voltage stability across temperature, low IR at elevated TJ, JEDEC-qualified thermal robustness, and SOD123F footprint compatibility with space-constrained power rails.
Technical Context
This SBR device uses patented Super Barrier Rectifier (SBR®) technology to achieve Schottky-like forward voltage with significantly lower reverse leakage than conventional Schottky diodes. Its interlocking clip design enhances thermal path integrity and enables 50 A non-repetitive surge current handling under 8.3 ms half-sine wave conditions.
The SOD123F package provides 100 °C/W RθJA on standard FR-4 (0.4" × 0.5", 2 oz copper), supporting continuous 3 A operation up to +85°C ambient when derated per Figure 4. Junction capacitance remains below 100 pF at 1 MHz and VR = 4 V, minimizing switching noise in high-frequency SMPS designs.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 40 V - Blocks up to 40 V DC or peak reverse voltage without breakdown; suitable for 24 V system rail clamping and 36 V input SMPS front ends. |
| IO (avg) | 3 A - Continuous DC output current rating at TA = +25°C; supports compact 12–24 V DC-DC converters with minimal heatsinking. |
| VF (max) | 0.49 V @ 3 A, 25°C - Reduces conduction loss by ~30% vs. standard PN rectifiers; improves efficiency in high-current, low-VOUT applications. |
| IR (max) | 180 µA @ 40 V, 25°C - Low leakage preserves battery life in always-on reverse-polarity protection; stable up to 125°C (60 µA). |
| IFSM | 50 A @ 8.3 ms - Withstands inrush and transient surges in automotive load-dump scenarios and hot-swap circuits. |
| TJ range | −65°C to +150°C - Enables deployment in under-hood automotive modules and industrial power supplies without derating penalties. |
Pinout & Package

| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Input current terminal | Connected to source side (e.g., input rail or battery positive); accepts forward current up to 3 A continuous. |
| Cathode | Output current terminal | Marked with band; delivers rectified output to load or downstream regulator; referenced to ground or return path. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|

| Patented SBR® technology | Combines metal-semiconductor interface with tailored barrier engineering to suppress thermal runaway and extend lifetime vs. Schottky alternatives. |
| +150°C operation | Rated junction temperature allows direct placement near MOSFETs or inductors without thermal throttling in sealed enclosures. |
| AEC-Q qualified | Meets stress test requirements per AEC-Q200 for vibration, temperature cycling, and humidity exposure - validated for automotive power systems. |
Applications
| DC-DC Converter Output Rectification | Reverse-Polarity Protection |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Secondary-side synchronous rectification replacement in isolated 12 V → 3.3 V/5 V flyback converters. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Uncontrolled rectifier providing low-loss, fast-recovery path for transformer secondary current.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar super barrier rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SBRT3U40S1F-7 | Same electrical specs but optimized for enhanced moisture resistance (MSL 1 confirmed); identical SOD123F package and marking. | Preferred for high-humidity industrial control panels where long-term storage before reflow is expected. | Select when J-STD-020 MSL 1 compliance must be explicitly documented beyond standard qualification. |
| VB340-GS08 | Higher VF (0.55 V max @ 3 A), higher IR (300 µA @ 40 V/25°C), same 40 V/3 A rating and SOD-123 package. | Acceptable for cost-sensitive consumer adapters where 15 mW extra loss per diode is tolerable. | Choose only if BOM cost reduction outweighs 12% conduction loss increase and reduced high-temp leakage margin. |
Compared with SBRT3U40S1F-7, the SBR3U40S1F-7 offers identical performance with standard MSL 1 assurance, while VB340-GS08 trades efficiency and leakage for lower unit cost - making the original optimal for thermally demanding, automotive-qualified, or high-reliability deployments.

FAQ
Is SBR3U40S1F-7 pin-compatible with standard SOD123F Schottky diodes?
Yes - it uses the industry-standard SOD123F outline with anode/cathode terminals in identical physical locations. The cathode band marking matches JEDEC MO-202AA, enabling drop-in replacement in existing layouts without footprint changes.
What is the maximum ambient temperature for 3 A continuous operation?
Per Figure 4, the device supports 3 A up to +85°C ambient on a standard FR-4 board (0.4" × 0.5", 2 oz copper). Above that, derating is required: 2.5 A at +100°C, 1.5 A at +125°C, and zero at +150°C ambient.
Does SBR3U40S1F-7 meet automotive qualification requirements?
It is qualified to AEC-Q200 stress test standards per Diodes' product definitions, though the automotive-grade variant SBR3U40S1FQ has additional PPAP documentation and extended temperature screening. This part is suitable for non-safety-critical automotive subsystems.
How does its reverse leakage compare to conventional Schottky diodes at high temperature?
At +125°C and 40 V reverse bias, SBR3U40S1F-7 exhibits ≤60 µA IR - typically 3–5× lower than comparable Schottky diodes (e.g., 200–300 µA), due to SBR® barrier engineering that suppresses thermionic emission rise with temperature.
