Product details
Overview
SBRT3U45SAF-13 from Diodes Incorporated is a 3A, 45V Trench Super Barrier Rectifier in SMAF package, featuring ultra-low 0.48 V forward voltage at 3 A and 25°C, 0.15 mA max reverse leakage at 45 V/125°C, and thermal resistance RθJA of 63°C/W. It serves as a high-efficiency boost diode in DC-DC converters for industrial power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the SBRT3U45SAF-13 datasheet, SBRT3U45SAF-13 pinout, SBRT3U45SAF-13 application, or SBRT3U45SAF-13 equivalent, key selection criteria include forward voltage stability across temperature, reverse leakage performance at 125°C, thermal derating behavior, and RoHS-compliant green packaging compatibility with automated SMT assembly.
Technical Context
This TrenchSBR rectifier uses proprietary trench-based super barrier technology to achieve lower VF than standard Schottky diodes while maintaining superior high-temperature IR stability versus conventional PN junction devices. Its 45 V VRRM rating targets mid-voltage DC-DC stages where efficiency and thermal margin are critical.
The device operates across –55°C to +150°C junction temperature range with 50 A non-repetitive surge capability (8.3 ms half-sine), enabling robustness in transient-prone power rails. Its SMAF package supports high-density layouts with 0.064 g mass and UL 94V-0 flammability rating.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 45 V - Maximum repetitive reverse blocking voltage; defines safe operating limit in boost/buck output rectification. |
| IO | 3 A - Average rectified current at 25°C ambient; derates to ~2.4 A at 100°C per Figure 5. |
| VF (max) | 0.48 V @ 3 A, 25°C - Enables <1.44 W conduction loss at full load; reduces heatsink requirements. |
| IR (max) | 0.15 mA @ 45 V, 125°C - Low leakage preserves efficiency and prevents thermal runaway in high-temp environments. |
| RθJA | 63°C/W - Thermal resistance on FR-4 board (0.4"×0.5", 2 oz Cu); determines junction rise under steady-state power dissipation. |
| Package | SMAF - Low-profile surface-mount package (4.60 × 3.95 × 1.10 mm) with matte tin-plated copper leadframe. |
Pinout & Package
SMAF package: single-ended anode-cathode configuration with cathode band marking. Molded plastic case, UL 94V-0 rated, moisture sensitivity level 1.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Current entry terminal | Connected to input/source side in forward-biased rectification; requires low-inductance trace routing. |
| Cathode | Current exit terminal | Marked with band; ties to output/load node; carries full IO current and must handle peak switching transients. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low VF | 0.48 V max at 3 A/25°C - Reduces conduction loss by ≥15% vs. comparable Schottky diodes, improving converter efficiency. |
| High-temp IR stability | 0.15 mA max at 45 V/125°C - Limits thermal runaway risk in enclosed or high-ambient environments. |
| Green construction | Halogen- and antimony-free (<900 ppm Br/Cl, <1000 ppm Sb); RoHS 2 compliant with matte tin finish. |
| Robust surge rating | 50 A IFSM (8.3 ms half-sine) - Withstands inrush and fault currents without degradation in 12 V–48 V systems. |
Applications
| Boost Diode in 24 V DC-DC Converters | Blocking Diode in Solar Charge Controllers |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Used in continuous-conduction-mode boost stage converting 12–24 V input to 48 V output for telecom power systems. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Power rectifier conducting during switch-off phase; handles full output current with minimal voltage drop. Use Value: 0.48 V VF reduces power loss by ~0.7 W vs. legacy Schottky, lowering thermal stress on PCB layout. |
Use Scenario: Prevents battery discharge through PV panel at night in off-grid solar installations. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Unidirectional blocking element placed between panel and charge controller; sustains 45 V reverse bias continuously. Use Value: 0.15 mA IR at 125°C minimizes standby energy loss, extending battery runtime in hot climates. |
| Recirculating Diode in Industrial Motor Drivers | Output Rectifier in AC-DC Adapters |
Use Scenario: Freewheeling path for inductive kickback in 24 V brushed DC motor H-bridge drivers. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Clamps inductive flyback voltage during PWM turn-off; conducts brief high-current pulses. Use Value: 50 A IFSM withstands repeated 30 A transient spikes without bond-wire failure. |
Use Scenario: Secondary-side rectification in 36 W universal-input AC-DC adapters for IoT gateways. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-frequency rectifier operating at 65–100 kHz switching frequency; replaces fast recovery diodes. Use Value: SMAF footprint enables compact transformer-secondary layout; 63°C/W RθJA allows natural convection cooling. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar super barrier rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SBRT3U45S-13 | Same die, but in standard SMA (not SMAF); 0.1 mm taller (1.2 mm vs. 1.1 mm max height). | Less suitable for ultra-low-profile designs; identical electrical specs and thermal performance on equivalent board layout. | Select when existing SMA footprint is fixed and height constraint is relaxed. |
| PS3445L-13 | 45 V, 3 A Schottky; VF = 0.52 V max @ 3 A/25°C, but IR = 0.5 mA @ 45 V/125°C - 3.3× higher leakage. | Acceptable in moderate-temperature environments; unsuitable for sealed enclosures above 85°C ambient. | Choose only if cost sensitivity outweighs thermal reliability requirements. |
Compared with SBRT3U45SAF-13, SBRT3U45S-13 offers identical performance in a slightly taller package, while PS3445L-13 trades higher leakage for broader distributor availability - making the -SAF variant optimal for thermally demanding, space-constrained rectification.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature for continuous operation?
The SBRT3U45SAF-13 has a specified operating junction temperature range of –55°C to +150°C. Continuous operation at 150°C is permitted provided thermal design maintains TJ ≤ 150°C under worst-case IO and ambient conditions, verified using RθJA = 63°C/W and measured power dissipation.
Is this diode suitable for synchronous rectification circuits?
No - the SBRT3U45SAF-13 is a passive unidirectional rectifier and lacks gate control or bidirectional conduction capability. It functions only as a freewheeling or output rectifier in non-synchronous topologies; synchronous designs require actively switched MOSFETs with driver circuitry.
How does the SMAF package differ electrically from standard SMA?
Electrically, SMAF and SMA share identical die, bonding, and terminal materials - no parameter differences exist. The SMAF variant features reduced height (max 1.10 mm vs. 2.20 mm for SMA) and tighter dimensional tolerances, enabling thinner PCB assemblies without altering VF, IR, or thermal resistance values.
Does the "Green" designation impact soldering profile or reflow compatibility?
No - the halogen- and antimony-free molding compound and matte tin finish comply with J-STD-020 Class 1 moisture sensitivity and support standard Pb-free reflow profiles (peak 260°C). No special prebake or profile adjustments are required beyond standard IPC-J-STD-020 guidelines.
