Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Direct substitute parts are grouped based on strict equivalency in electrical and mechanical parameters. Key parameters required for substitution include: Diode Configuration, Technology, Voltage - DC Reverse (Vr) (Max), Current - Average Rectified (Io) (per Diode), Voltage - Forward (Vf) (Max) at corresponding forward current, Speed, Current - Reverse Leakage at a defined reverse voltage, Operating Temperature - Junction, Mounting Type, Package / Case, RoHS Status, and Moisture Sensitivity Level. Only parts matching or exceeding the original's ratings within these fields are included.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MBR50080CT is obsolete. The MBR60080CT from GeneSiC Semiconductor remains active, with all compliance and environmental qualifications identical to the original. The MBR60080CT fully matches or exceeds the key parameters required for substitution within the same package and configuration constraints.
