Working Principle

The MBR20L100CTHC0G is a four-terminal diode array. It operates by using a Schottky barrier principle to control the direction of the current. The Schottky diode is a specific type of semiconductor diode, which is formed by combining a metal and a semiconductor material together. The diode is made up of a metal terminal and a semiconductor layer, which is usually referred to as the barrier. The Schottky barrier creates a junction between the metal and the semiconductor material, which in turn sets up an electrical field across the diode when an external voltage is applied. When this voltage exceeds the barrier potential, the electrons can flow from the n-type material to the p-type material, creating a current flow.

When the current flows in the forward direction, the electrons predominantly flow through the high-resistance region of the diode, resulting in a typically higher forward voltage drop than that of a regular diode. This is because the current must overcome the internal built-in potential barrier, resulting in a higher voltage drop. When the voltage is reversed, the diode is effectively reversed biased, no current will flow, and therefore the diode acts as an insulator and prevents current flow in the reverse direction.

The MBR20L100CTHC0G is a 4-Terminal Schottky rectifier diode array and as such, it offers improved efficiency and reduced switching losses, when compared to regular silicon rectifier diodes. Because of this, the device is well-suited for use in high power applications such as power switching, and offers increased reliability in applications that require frequent power cycling.

The MBR20L100CTHC0G is a 4-Terminal Schottky rectifier diode array, suitable for a range of applications in the power switching, battery management, DC/DC converters, consumer electronics and automotive markets. The integrated heatsink and Schottky diode design maximizes efficiency and ensures reliable operation in high temperature environments, making it a highly reliable product for use in these applications.
