Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

DSSK16-01A (IXYS)

The DSSK16-01A is an active product with 8 A current rating, exceeding the MBR15100CTF-E1 specification of 7.5 A. This part maintains 100 V reverse voltage rating and fast recovery characteristics. Operating temperature range extends to 175°C maximum. RoHS3 compliance and EAR99 classification are maintained. The DSSK16-01A is suitable for direct substitution in applications where the higher current capability does not create thermal or design constraints.

MBRF30H100CTG (onsemi)

The MBRF30H100CTG is an active product with 15 A current rating and superior reverse leakage characteristics (4.5 µA @ 100 V compared to 100 µA @ 100 V). This part features the SWITCHMODE™ series designation and maintains 100 V reverse voltage rating with fast recovery performance. Operating temperature maximum of 175°C and TO-220-3 Full Pack configuration provide direct mechanical compatibility. The MBRF30H100CTG is suitable for applications requiring enhanced current capacity and lower leakage performance.

STPS20H100CFP (STMicroelectronics)

The STPS20H100CFP is an active product with 10 A current rating and forward voltage of 770 mV @ 10 A, representing lower forward drop than the MBR15100CTF-E1. This part maintains 100 V reverse voltage rating and fast recovery characteristics with 4.5 µA reverse leakage @ 100 V. TO-220-3 Full Pack configuration and 175°C maximum operating temperature provide direct compatibility. High inventory availability (105,100 pcs) supports production continuity.

STPS20S100CFP (STMicroelectronics)

The STPS20S100CFP is an active product with 10 A current rating and forward voltage of 850 mV @ 10 A, matching the MBR15100CTF-E1 forward voltage specification. This part maintains 100 V reverse voltage rating with 3.5 µA reverse leakage @ 100 V and fast recovery performance. TO-220-3 Full Pack configuration and 175°C maximum operating temperature provide direct compatibility. This part represents the closest electrical match to the original specification.

All substitute parts are RoHS3 compliant and classified as EAR99 for export control purposes.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the DSSK16-01A replace the MBR15100CTF-E1 in all applications?

A: The DSSK16-01A maintains the same 100 V reverse voltage rating, Schottky technology, and fast recovery characteristics. The 8 A current rating exceeds the 7.5 A specification of the MBR15100CTF-E1. Substitution is valid where the higher current capability does not introduce thermal or design conflicts. Package configuration is TO-220-3 standard, compatible with TO-220-3 Full Pack mounting.

Q: What is the difference between STPS20H100CFP and STPS20S100CFP?

A: Both parts share identical 10 A current rating, 100 V reverse voltage, and TO-220-3 Full Pack configuration. The primary difference is forward voltage: STPS20H100CFP specifies 770 mV @ 10 A, while STPS20S100CFP specifies 850 mV @ 10 A. The STPS20S100CFP forward voltage matches the MBR15100CTF-E1 specification exactly. Reverse leakage differs slightly: STPS20H100CFP at 4.5 µA versus STPS20S100CFP at 3.5 µA @ 100 V.

Q: Why does the MBRF30H100CTG have significantly lower reverse leakage?

A: The MBRF30H100CTG specifies 4.5 µA @ 100 V reverse leakage compared to 100 µA @ 100 V for the MBR15100CTF-E1. This difference reflects manufacturing process variations and die design between manufacturers. Lower reverse leakage is a performance advantage in applications sensitive to standby current or leakage-induced heat generation.

Q: Are all substitute parts available in the same packaging?

A: The MBR15100CTF-E1 uses TO-220-3 Full Pack configuration. The DSSK16-01A uses standard TO-220-3 packaging. The MBRF30H100CTG, STPS20H100CFP, and STPS20S100CFP all use TO-220-3 Full Pack configuration, providing direct mechanical compatibility. Verify PCB footprint requirements before final selection.

Q: What is the operating temperature difference between the original part and substitutes?

A: The MBR15100CTF-E1 specifies -65°C to 150°C junction temperature range. The DSSK16-01A extends to -55°C to 175°C. The MBRF30H100CTG, STPS20H100CFP, and STPS20S100CFP specify 175°C maximum junction temperature. All substitute parts support higher maximum operating temperatures, providing thermal margin in high-temperature applications.

Q: Are all parts RoHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. The MBR15100CTF-E1 and all substitute parts (DSSK16-01A, MBRF30H100CTG, STPS20H100CFP, STPS20S100CFP) are RoHS3 compliant. All parts are classified as EAR99 for export control and share the same HTSUS code 8541.10.0080.

Q: Which substitute part has the lowest forward voltage drop?

A: The STPS20H100CFP specifies 770 mV @ 10 A forward voltage, representing the lowest forward drop among all listed substitutes. This characteristic reduces power dissipation in rectification circuits. The MBRF30H100CTG specifies 800 mV @ 15 A, and the STPS20S100CFP specifies 850 mV @ 10 A.
