MBR30150CT Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The MBR30150CT is a Schottky diode array in a 1 Pair Common Cathode configuration rated for 150 V DC reverse voltage and 30 A average rectified current per diode. Manufactured by Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation, this through-hole component is housed in a TO-220-3 package and is classified as Active with ROHS3 compliance. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical performance and mechanical compatibility are required due to inventory constraints, supply chain considerations, or specific application requirements within the allowed parameter ranges.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the MBR30150CT is determined by strict adherence to the following electrical and mechanical parameters:

Critical Parameters for Substitution:

• Diode Configuration: 1 Pair Common Cathode (must match exactly)
• Technology: Schottky (must match exactly)
• Voltage - DC Reverse (Vr) (Max): 150 V (must match exactly)
• Mounting Type: Through Hole (must match exactly)
• Package / Case: TO-220-3 (must match exactly)

Allowable Variation Parameters:

• Current - Average Rectified (Io) (per Diode): Substitute parts may have lower current ratings if application requirements permit
• Voltage - Forward (Vf) (Max): Substitute parts may have different forward voltage characteristics within the same voltage class
• Current - Reverse Leakage @ Vr: Substitute parts may have different leakage characteristics
• Operating Temperature - Junction: Substitute parts may have extended or different temperature ranges
• RoHS Status: All substitute parts must maintain ROHS3 compliance

Substitute parts are grouped based on current rating capability. Parts with equal or higher current ratings provide direct substitution. Parts with lower current ratings are classified as similar substitutes suitable for reduced-current applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Direct Equivalent Substitute: MBR30150CT_T0_00001 (Panjit International Inc.) is a direct electrical and mechanical equivalent to the MBR30150CT. Both parts share identical voltage ratings (150 V), current ratings (30 A per diode), diode configuration (1 Pair Common Cathode), and package type (TO-220-3). Both are ROHS3 compliant and Active status products. This substitute is suitable for applications requiring full current capacity replacement.

Current-Reduced Substitutes: MBR10150CT-G1 (Diodes Incorporated) and V20150C-E3/4W (Vishay General Semiconductor - Diodes Division) are similar substitutes with reduced current ratings of 5 A and 10 A respectively. These parts maintain the 150 V voltage rating, 1 Pair Common Cathode configuration, TO-220-3 package, and ROHS3 compliance. Both are Active status products. These substitutes are applicable only to applications where the circuit current requirement does not exceed the rated current of the substitute part.

All substitute parts maintain compliance with ROHS3 and REACH Unaffected status, ensuring regulatory alignment with the original MBR30150CT specification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can MBR30150CT_T0_00001 be used as a direct replacement for MBR30150CT? A: Yes. MBR30150CT_T0_00001 is a direct substitute with identical electrical ratings (150 V, 30 A per diode), diode configuration (1 Pair Common Cathode), and package type (TO-220-3). Both parts are ROHS3 compliant and Active status.

Q: What is the difference between MBR30150CT and MBR10150CT-G1? A: The primary difference is the current rating. MBR30150CT is rated for 30 A per diode, while MBR10150CT-G1 is rated for 5 A per diode. Both share the same 150 V voltage rating, 1 Pair Common Cathode configuration, and TO-220-3 package. MBR10150CT-G1 is suitable only for applications with current requirements not exceeding 5 A per diode.

Q: Are all substitute parts compatible with the same PCB footprint? A: Yes. All listed substitute parts use the TO-220-3 package type with through-hole mounting, ensuring mechanical compatibility with the same PCB footprint as the MBR30150CT.

Q: What is the significance of the forward voltage difference between MBR30150CT and V20150C-E3/4W? A: MBR30150CT has a maximum forward voltage of 1.02 V at 30 A, while V20150C-E3/4W has a maximum forward voltage of 1.2 V at 10 A. The forward voltage is measured at different current levels due to different current ratings. V20150C-E3/4W is suitable only for applications with current requirements not exceeding 10 A per diode.

Q: Do all substitute parts meet the same regulatory compliance standards? A: Yes. All substitute parts listed are ROHS3 compliant and REACH Unaffected, matching the compliance status of the MBR30150CT.

Q: Can MBR10150CT-G1 or V20150C-E3/4W be used in a 30 A application? A: No. MBR10150CT-G1 is rated for 5 A per diode and V20150C-E3/4W is rated for 10 A per diode. Using these parts in a 30 A application would exceed their current ratings and result in component failure. Only MBR30150CT or MBR30150CT_T0_00001 are suitable for 30 A applications.

Q: What is the operating temperature range difference between MBR30150CT and MBR30150CT_T0_00001? A: MBR30150CT operates from -55°C to 150°C, while MBR30150CT_T0_00001 operates from -65°C to 175°C. MBR30150CT_T0_00001 provides an extended temperature range suitable for applications requiring operation at lower or higher temperatures.
