Working Principle

The SBR30A100CTB is a fast-recovery diode, which is designed to be used in high power applications where high efficiency is required. It consists of two high-efficiency Schottky Barrier Rectifiers (SBRs) in one package. It is made up of two separate diodes that are electrically and thermally coupled, with each one acting as a reverse blocking diode. In the forward direction, it operates at low voltage with high current capability and very fast switching times, resulting in high efficiency and reduced power losses. When in reverse bias, the diode will block any current from flowing through it, making it ideal for use in high power applications.

The two SBRs in the package are connected in series, with each SBR being able to handle current up to 15A, resulting in a total current capability of up to 30A. This allows the device to handle high power applications, while still being able to maintain high efficiency. The total forward voltage of the device is 1.3V and it has a very low reverse leakage, making it ideal for use in high power applications.

The SBR30A100CTB is designed to provide reliable operation in high power applications and has a wide operating temperature range of -40°C to +125°C. The device is RoHS compliant and is available in a TO-220FP package.

Conclusion

The SBR30A100CTB is a rectifier diode array that combines two 30A, 100V fast-switching Schottky Barrier Rectifiers in one package. It is ideal for use in high power applications, such as rectified power supplies, low and medium current loads, converters, frequency changers and battery chargers.
