Product details
Overview
SBS36 from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 3A, 60V repetitive peak reverse voltage Schottky bridge rectifier in ABS package with quad configuration, rated for 150°C maximum junction temperature and 80A non-repetitive surge current, used in PoE power delivery and LED lighting front-end rectification.
For engineers reviewing the SBS36 datasheet, SBS36 pinout, SBS36 application, or SBS36 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 60V VRRM, 0.70V max forward voltage at 3A/25°C, AEC-Q101 qualification option (SBS36H), moisture sensitivity level 1, and UL 94V-0 compliant ABS molding compound.
Technical Context
The SBS36 integrates four Schottky diodes in a single-phase bridge configuration, enabling full-wave rectification without external interconnects. Its thermal resistance values-RθJL = 41°C/W and RθJA = 83°C/W-support high-current operation up to 3A continuous under natural convection in compact layouts.
Electrical behavior is defined by two critical operating points: at TJ = 25°C, VF ≤ 0.70V (IF = 3A), and at TJ = 150°C, IR ≤ 10mA (VR = 60V). The device exhibits no specified reverse leakage at TJ = 100°C or 125°C for SBS36, distinguishing it from SBS34's published IR values at those temperatures.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 60 V - Maximum repetitive reverse voltage the device blocks without breakdown; defines usable input voltage range in AC/DC front ends. |
| IF | 3 A - Continuous average forward current rating; determines sustained power-handling capability in charging and lighting circuits. |
| IFSM | 80 A - Peak non-repetitive surge current (8.3 ms half-sine); enables robustness against inrush and transient overloads. |
| TJ max | 150 °C - Maximum allowable junction temperature; permits operation in high-ambient environments like enclosed LED drivers. |
| VF max | 0.70 V @ 3A, 25°C - Forward voltage drop per diode; directly impacts conduction loss and thermal design in low-voltage, high-efficiency systems. |
| RθJL | 41 °C/W - Junction-to-lead thermal resistance; enables accurate thermal modeling when mounted on PCB copper pour or heatsinked leads. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Schottky bridge rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vishay VS-36MB60A | 60V VRRM, 3.6A IF, TO-220AC package, RθJA = 50°C/W, no AEC-Q101 option | Higher current rating but larger footprint and lower thermal efficiency; requires heatsinking above 2A | Select when higher IF margin is needed and board space permits TO-220 mounting. |
| ON Semiconductor MB3660 | 60V VRRM, 3A IF, ABS package, VF = 0.72V max, no AEC-Q101 variant listed | Identical package and current rating; slightly higher VF increases conduction loss by ~3% at full load | Choose when sourcing from ON Semi distribution channels is preferred and AEC-Q101 is not required. |
Compared with VS-36MB60A and MB3660, the SBS36 offers superior thermal performance in ABS (RθJL = 41°C/W vs. ~55–60°C/W typical for competing ABS bridges) and unique AEC-Q101 qualification via SBS36H, making it optimal for space-constrained, high-reliability PoE and automotive-adjacent applications.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for SBS36?
The SBS36 has a maximum junction temperature (TJ) rating of +150°C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This allows operation in thermally demanding environments such as enclosed LED drivers or industrial power supplies where ambient temperatures exceed 85°C. The SBS36 maintains full electrical specifications up to this limit, unlike SBS34 which is rated only to +125°C.
Does SBS36 have AEC-Q101 qualification?
The base SBS36 is not AEC-Q101 qualified, but the variant SBS36H is explicitly listed as AEC-Q101 qualified in the Ordering Information section. SBS36H shares identical electrical and thermal specifications with SBS36 but undergoes additional stress testing and lot-level validation required for automotive-grade components. Always specify "H" suffix when AEC-Q101 compliance is required.
What is the forward voltage specification for SBS36 at 3A and 25°C?
The SBS36 has a maximum forward voltage (VF) of 0.70 V at IF = 3 A and TJ = 25°C, per the Electrical Specifications table. This value is measured per diode within the bridge, under pulsed conditions (PW = 0.3 ms). At higher junction temperatures, VF decreases slightly due to Schottky diode physics, but system-level conduction loss calculations should use the 0.70 V max value for worst-case thermal design.
How does SBS36 differ from SBS34 in terms of reverse voltage rating?
SBS36 is rated for 60 V repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM), while SBS34 is rated for 40 V VRRM. This 20 V difference defines their respective application boundaries: SBS36 supports higher-input-voltage designs such as 57 V PoE systems or 230 VAC-fed LED drivers with wide input tolerances, whereas SBS34 suits 12–24 VAC or lower-voltage auxiliary supplies.
What package type and lead finish does SBS36 use?
SBS36 uses the ABS package-a surface-mount molded plastic case with gull-wing leads-and features matte tin-plated terminals that comply with J-STD-002 for solderability. The ABS package meets UL 94V-0 flammability rating and JESD 201 Class 2 whisker resistance, supporting reliable reflow assembly and long-term interconnect integrity in industrial and automotive applications.
