Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the MBR2060CT-G is determined by the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

Voltage - DC Reverse (Vr) (Max): 60 V
Diode Configuration: 1 Pair Common Cathode
Package / Case: TO-220-3
Mounting Type: Through Hole

Allowable Variation Parameters:

Current - Average Rectified (Io) (per Diode): Equal or greater than 20A
Voltage - Forward (Vf) (Max): Equal or lower than 950 mV @ rated current
Operating Temperature Range: Equal or wider than -55°C ~ 150°C
Technology: Schottky or Super Barrier (both fast-switching rectifier technologies)

The substitute part SBR2060CT meets the mandatory matching criteria for voltage rating, configuration, and package. However, the current rating differs at 10A per diode versus 20A for the main part, establishing a derating condition for substitution applicability.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Part Selection (MBR2060CT-G): Select the MBR2060CT-G when circuit design requires the full 20A average rectified current per diode. This part maintains Active product status with ROHS3 compliance and is suitable for applications requiring maximum current capacity within the 60V voltage class.

Substitute Part Selection (SBR2060CT): The SBR2060CT is applicable only in circuits where the average rectified current requirement does not exceed 10A per diode. This substitute maintains identical voltage rating, configuration, and package compatibility. Both parts carry Active product status and ROHS3 compliance, ensuring regulatory equivalence.

Compliance Equivalence: Both MBR2060CT-G and SBR2060CT are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and classified under ECCN EAR99 with identical HTSUS code 8541.10.0080. Moisture sensitivity level is 1 (Unlimited) for both parts.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can SBR2060CT directly replace MBR2060CT-G in all applications?

A: No. The SBR2060CT is rated at 10A average rectified current per diode, while the MBR2060CT-G is rated at 20A. Direct substitution is valid only when circuit current requirements do not exceed 10A per diode. Operating at currents between 10A and 20A requires circuit redesign or thermal management modifications.

Q: Are the TO-220-3 packages physically identical?

A: Yes. Both MBR2060CT-G and SBR2060CT use TO-220-3 package configuration with Through Hole mounting. Physical footprint and pin assignment are identical, enabling direct PCB mounting compatibility.

Q: What is the difference between Schottky and Super Barrier technology in these parts?

A: Both are fast-switching rectifier technologies. The MBR2060CT-G uses Schottky technology with 950 mV forward voltage at 20A. The SBR2060CT uses Super Barrier technology with 700 mV forward voltage at 10A. Forward voltage comparison is valid only at equivalent current levels.

Q: Does the substitute part have better temperature performance?

A: The SBR2060CT operating temperature range is -65°C to 150°C, which is 10°C wider at the lower end compared to the MBR2060CT-G range of -55°C to 150°C. Both parts support the same upper temperature limit of 150°C.

Q: Why is reverse leakage current higher in the substitute part?

A: The SBR2060CT exhibits 500 µA reverse leakage at 60V compared to 100 µA for the MBR2060CT-G. This difference is inherent to the Super Barrier versus Schottky technology implementations and must be evaluated in applications sensitive to leakage current characteristics.

Q: Are both parts available in equivalent quantities?

A: Inventory levels differ. MBR2060CT-G has 940 pieces in stock (Bulk packaging), while SBR2060CT has 10,200 pieces in stock (Tube packaging). Packaging format and availability should be considered in procurement planning.
