MBRB10100CTTR Discrete Semiconductor Products

Diodes - Rectifiers - Arrays

The MBRB10100CTTR is a part of the diode-rectifier-array family used for the purpose of rectifying the steady AC current for industrial, electronics and automotive applications. The rectifier array consists of four chips composed of Schottky Barrier Diodes (SBD). It is typically used as an integrated rectifier pack in place of a number of individual diodes. This saves PCB space, simplifies PCB layout and improves thermal performance.

MBRB10100CTTR is a fast-recovery rectifier array, which is optimized for noise reduction in switching power supplies and low loss in regulating power converters. It provides fast or soft switching times. The four chips are arranged in symmetrical bridge configuration. It is designed to be used in a wide range of high frequency switching regulators, video converters and other power electronics applications. It has a wide range of operating temperature – from -55°C up to + 175°C.

Working Principle

The working principle of the MBRB10100CTTR is quite simple. It takes a steady AC current and rectifies it, producing a DC output. The four chips are in bridge configuration, which allows for complete rectification of the incoming AC current. The Schottky Barrier Diodes (SBD) used in the rectifier array have low forward voltage drop and high-switching speed. The low forward voltage drop helps reduce current path losses and improve power efficiency. The high-switching speed ensures that the switching transients are kept low, thus reducing the radiated noise.

The MBRB10100CTTR is designed with a high-amplitude current-interrupt capability. This helps to reduce current flows through the rectifier array during hard-switching operations, preventing excessive heat dissipation and prolonging the life of the device.

Application Fields

The MBRB10100CTTR is used primarily for applications requiring fast switching, reliable rectification and low current path losses. It is commonly used in automotive, industrial and electronic applications, such as automotive distribution systems, DC-DC converters, power supplies, battery chargers and other power electronics applications.

A wide range of automotive applications, such as engine control modules, lighting systems, battery management systems, power steering systems and brake systems, can benefit from the MBRB10100CTTR. The fast switching speed reduces power losses and improves power and efficiency performance. The highcurrent interrupt capability provides protection against excessive current flows during hard-switching operations and prolongs the life of the device.

The MBRB10100CTTR can also be used in industrial applications. It can be used for power conditioning applications such as AC-DC rectification, DC-DC converters and DC motor drives. It is also suitable for regulator modules, high frequency power converters, UPS systems and home inverters.
