Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

MBRB1560CTHM3/I (Vishay General Semiconductor - Diodes Division)

This substitute is manufactured by the same supplier as the main part and maintains identical electrical specifications. The MBRB1560CTHM3/I is in Active product status, ensuring continued availability and supply chain stability. This part is the direct functional equivalent with no parameter deviations. Selection of this substitute is appropriate for applications requiring continuity with the original design without modification.

NRVBB30H60CTT4G (onsemi)

This substitute provides enhanced electrical performance characteristics. The NRVBB30H60CTT4G offers double the current rating (15 A versus 7.5 A per diode) and lower forward voltage drop (620 mV @ 15 A versus 750 mV @ 7.5 A). Reverse leakage current is significantly reduced (300 µA @ 60 V versus 1 mA @ 60 V). The operating temperature range extends to 175°C maximum junction temperature. This part is in Active product status with ROHS3 compliance confirmed. Selection of this substitute is appropriate for applications where improved thermal performance, reduced power dissipation, or higher current capacity provides design benefits. The identical package format (TO-263-3, D2PAK) ensures mechanical compatibility without PCB modification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the MBRB1560CTHM3/I be used as a direct replacement for the MBRB1560CTHE3_B/P?

A: Yes. The MBRB1560CTHM3/I is electrically and mechanically identical to the main part. All electrical parameters, package format, and thermal characteristics match exactly. This substitute requires no circuit design changes or PCB layout modifications.

Q: What are the key differences between the NRVBB30H60CTT4G and the original MBRB1560CTHE3_B/P?

A: The NRVBB30H60CTT4G differs in three areas: (1) Current rating is doubled from 7.5 A to 15 A per diode, (2) Forward voltage drop is reduced from 750 mV to 620 mV at the respective rated currents, and (3) Reverse leakage current is reduced from 1 mA to 300 µA at 60 V. The package format, voltage rating, and diode configuration remain identical. The maximum operating temperature is extended from 150°C to 175°C.

Q: Is the NRVBB30H60CTT4G a pin-for-pin replacement?

A: Yes. Both the NRVBB30H60CTT4G and MBRB1560CTHE3_B/P use the identical TO-263-3 (D2PAK) package with 2 leads plus tab. No PCB layout changes are required for mechanical or electrical connection.

Q: Can I use the NRVBB30H60CTT4G in a circuit designed for the MBRB1560CTHE3_B/P without circuit modifications?

A: Yes. The NRVBB30H60CTT4G meets or exceeds all electrical requirements of the original part. The lower forward voltage drop and reduced reverse leakage represent performance improvements. No circuit modifications are necessary. The higher current rating provides additional design margin without affecting circuit operation.

Q: What is the significance of the Last Time Buy status for the MBRB1560CTHE3_B/P?

A: Last Time Buy status indicates that the manufacturer has discontinued production of this part. Existing inventory will be depleted without replenishment. Selection of an active substitute part ensures long-term component availability for production and field service applications.

Q: Are both substitute parts automotive-qualified?

A: The MBRB1560CTHM3/I is manufactured by Vishay and maintains the same automotive grade and AEC-Q101 qualification as the original part. The NRVBB30H60CTT4G is manufactured by onsemi and automotive grade or AEC-Q101 qualification status is not specified in the provided data. Applications requiring automotive qualification should prioritize the MBRB1560CTHM3/I.

Q: What is the moisture sensitivity level for these parts?

A: The MBRB1560CTHE3_B/P and NRVBB30H60CTT4G both have MSL 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions. The MBRB1560CTHM3/I moisture sensitivity level is not specified in the provided data.
