MB16S-TP Bridge Rectifier Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The MB16S-TP is a single-phase bridge rectifier with Schottky technology rated for 60 V peak reverse voltage and 1 A average rectified current. Manufactured by Micro Commercial Co in the MBS-1 package, this component is classified as obsolete. Due to its obsolete status, identifying equivalent and substitute parts is necessary to maintain design continuity and ensure component availability for production and repair applications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the MB16S-TP is determined by the following critical parameters: peak reverse voltage (60 V), average rectified current rating, forward voltage characteristics, technology type (Schottky), mounting method (surface mount), and package compatibility. Substitute parts are grouped into two categories:

Direct Substitutes (Identical Electrical and Mechanical Specifications): Parts that maintain the same 60 V voltage rating, 1 A current rating, and compatible package footprint (TO-269AA, 4-BESOP or equivalent surface mount packages).

Parametric Equivalents (Higher Current Rating): Parts that exceed the 1 A current specification while maintaining the 60 V voltage rating and Schottky technology. These provide enhanced current capacity within the same voltage class and are suitable for applications with higher current demands.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For Direct Replacement (1 A Rating):

The CDBHD160L-G from Comchip Technology is the primary direct substitute. It maintains identical voltage and current specifications, shares the same TO-269AA package footprint, and holds active product status with ROHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating. The forward voltage is lower (625 mV @ 1 A) compared to the original 700 mV @ 1 A, representing improved efficiency characteristics.

The MB16S from Good-Ark Semiconductor provides an alternative direct substitute with matching electrical specifications and package compatibility. It maintains the original forward voltage characteristic (700 mV @ 1 A) and active product status.

The LMB16S-TP from Micro Commercial Co offers a direct electrical equivalent with extended operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 150°C versus -55°C ~ 125°C). Package configuration differs (4-SMD Gull Wing versus TO-269AA), requiring PCB layout verification before implementation.

For Higher Current Applications (2 A Rating):

The CDBHD260-G and CDBHM260L-G/CDBHM260L-HF from Comchip Technology provide 2 A current capacity while maintaining 60 V voltage rating and TO-269AA package compatibility. These are suitable for applications requiring increased current handling within the same voltage class. Both maintain ROHS3 compliance and active product status.

All recommended substitutes hold ROHS3 compliance, REACH unaffected status, and EAR99 ECCN classification, matching the regulatory profile of the original MB16S-TP.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the LMB16S-TP replace the MB16S-TP in existing designs?

A: The LMB16S-TP provides electrical equivalence at the 1 A rating and 60 V voltage specification. However, the package differs (4-SMD Gull Wing versus TO-269AA, 4-BESOP). PCB footprint compatibility must be verified before substitution. The extended temperature range (-55°C ~ 150°C) provides additional thermal margin compared to the original -55°C ~ 125°C specification.

Q: What is the difference between the 1 A and 2 A rated substitutes?

A: The 1 A substitutes (CDBHD160L-G, MB16S, LMB16S-TP) maintain the original current specification. The 2 A substitutes (CDBHD260-G, CDBHM260L-G, CDBHM260L-HF) provide doubled current capacity while preserving the 60 V voltage rating and Schottky technology. Selection depends on circuit current requirements.

Q: Are all substitutes available in the same package?

A: Most substitutes use the TO-269AA, 4-BESOP package, ensuring mechanical compatibility with the original MB16S-TP. The LMB16S-TP uses a 4-SMD Gull Wing package, which requires PCB layout verification. Package selection should be confirmed against existing PCB designs before component procurement.

Q: What are the compliance and regulatory considerations?

A: All recommended substitutes maintain ROHS3 compliance, REACH unaffected status, and EAR99 ECCN classification, matching the regulatory requirements of the original MB16S-TP. Moisture sensitivity level remains at MSL 1 (Unlimited) across all alternatives.

Q: How do forward voltage characteristics compare?

A: The original MB16S-TP specifies 700 mV @ 1 A. The CDBHD160L-G offers lower forward voltage (625 mV @ 1 A), improving efficiency. The LMB16S-TP specifies 650 mV @ 500 mA. The 2 A rated alternatives maintain 700 mV @ 2 A. Forward voltage differences should be evaluated for thermal and efficiency impact in the target application.
