Schottky Barrier Rectifiers MBR Series

Littelfuse Schottky barrier rectifiers MBR series (standard Schottky) are the latest devices based on silicon Schottky diode technology. This series is designed to meet the general requirements of commercial and industrial applications.

The Schottky barrier rectifiers are popular with designers because of their extremely fast switching speed, very low forward voltage drop, low leakage, and high junction temperature capability. Its higher junction temperature capability and low leakage provide higher reliability in harsh, high temperature environments.

Typical applications for MBR series Schottky barrier rectifiers include uninterruptible power supplies, high frequency switch-mode power supplies, and DC-DC converters, as well as use as free-wheeling diodes and polarity protection diodes.

MBR series power semiconductors offer these key benefits:

• The MBR series’ extremely fast switching speeds make it suitable for high frequency applications with minimal switching loss
• The series offers very low forward voltage drop and less heat dissipation than conventional diodes, thereby reducing thermal and electrical conduction losses
• Its high junction temperature capability improves reliability in high ambient temperatures or applications with minimal cooling available
