MBRD360 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The MBRD360 is a Schottky rectifier diode rated for 60 V DC reverse voltage and 3 A average rectified current in a Surface Mount DPAK package. Manufactured by onsemi, this component is classified as Obsolete. Due to its obsolete status, identifying equivalent and substitute parts is necessary to maintain design continuity and ensure component availability for production and repair applications. Substitute parts must maintain electrical compatibility across voltage, current, and thermal specifications while accommodating packaging and compliance requirements.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

MBRD360 (SMC Diode Solutions)

This part is a direct equivalent to the onsemi MBRD360 with identical electrical ratings and package specifications. The SMC Diode Solutions variant is Active in product status, ensuring ongoing availability. This part is ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Affected, meeting modern regulatory requirements. The forward voltage specification of 650 mV @ 3 A represents a 50 mV increase over the original specification, which is within acceptable tolerance for most applications. Reverse leakage current is specified at 1 mA @ 60 V, which is higher than the original 200 µA but remains within functional limits for rectifier applications. Operating temperature range is -55°C ~ 150°C, which is narrower than the original -65°C ~ 150°C specification. This part is supplied in Tape & Reel packaging, suitable for automated assembly processes.

VS-30WQ06FN-M3 (Vishay General Semiconductor - Diodes Division)

This part provides enhanced current capability at 3.5 A average rectified current, exceeding the original 3 A specification. The Vishay part maintains the 60 V reverse voltage rating and is housed in the same TO-252-3 DPAK package. Forward voltage is specified at 610 mV @ 3 A, which is within 10 mV of the original specification. Reverse leakage current is 2 µA @ 60 V, significantly lower than the original 200 µA specification, indicating superior leakage performance. The part is ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected. Operating temperature range is -40°C ~ 150°C, which is narrower than the original specification. This part is supplied in Tube packaging. The enhanced current rating provides design margin for applications requiring higher current capacity within the same thermal envelope.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the MBRD360 (SMC Diode Solutions) be used as a direct replacement for the onsemi MBRD360?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical voltage and current ratings (60 V, 3 A), the same package specification (TO-252-3 DPAK), and equivalent fast recovery speed characteristics. The SMC variant is Active in product status, ensuring availability. Forward voltage tolerance of 650 mV @ 3 A is within acceptable engineering margins for rectifier applications.

Q: What are the advantages of using the VS-30WQ06FN-M3 over the original MBRD360?

A: The Vishay part provides 3.5 A average rectified current capacity compared to the original 3 A specification, offering 16.7% additional current margin. Reverse leakage current is significantly lower at 2 µA @ 60 V versus 200 µA, resulting in improved efficiency and reduced power dissipation. Both parts maintain the same 60 V reverse voltage rating and DPAK package form factor.

Q: Are there temperature range limitations when substituting the VS-30WQ06FN-M3?

A: The VS-30WQ06FN-M3 operates from -40°C ~ 150°C, compared to the original MBRD360 specification of -65°C ~ 150°C. Applications requiring operation below -40°C junction temperature must use the SMC Diode Solutions MBRD360 variant, which operates to -55°C, or retain the original onsemi part if available.

Q: Do all substitute parts use the same DPAK package?

A: Yes. All three parts—the original onsemi MBRD360, the SMC Diode Solutions MBRD360, and the Vishay VS-30WQ06FN-M3—use the TO-252-3 DPAK (2 Leads + Tab) package designation SC-63. PCB footprints and thermal management considerations are identical across all three parts.

Q: What is the difference in packaging between the substitute parts?

A: The SMC Diode Solutions MBRD360 is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format, optimized for automated pick-and-place assembly. The Vishay VS-30WQ06FN-M3 is supplied in Tube packaging. Both packaging formats are compatible with standard manufacturing processes; selection depends on production volume and assembly equipment capabilities.

Q: Are the substitute parts compliant with current regulatory standards?

A: Both the SMC Diode Solutions MBRD360 and Vishay VS-30WQ06FN-M3 are ROHS3 Compliant. The SMC part is REACH Affected, while the Vishay part is REACH Unaffected. The original onsemi MBRD360 is RoHS non-compliant and REACH Unaffected. Regulatory compliance requirements should be evaluated against specific application and regional standards.

Q: Can the VS-30WQ06FN-M3 be used in applications designed for 3 A operation?

A: Yes. The VS-30WQ06FN-M3 is rated for 3.5 A average rectified current, which exceeds the 3 A requirement. The part operates within the same voltage and thermal specifications, making it suitable for applications originally designed for the MBRD360 3 A rating. The higher current rating provides additional design margin without requiring circuit modifications.
