MBRF1660 C0G Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The MBRF1660 C0G is a Schottky rectifier diode rated for 60V DC reverse voltage and 16A average rectified current in a through-hole TO-220-2 package configuration. This component is designed for fast recovery applications with forward voltage characteristics of 750 mV at 16A and reverse leakage current of 500 µA at 60V. The original Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation version is discontinued at DiGi Electronics, necessitating identification of functionally equivalent alternatives from active manufacturers to maintain design continuity and procurement availability.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MBRF1660 from SMC Diode Solutions is a direct functional equivalent to the discontinued Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation MBRF1660 C0G. Both components satisfy identical electrical specifications across voltage, current, forward voltage drop, recovery speed, and leakage current parameters. Both maintain ROHS3 compliance and operate across the same temperature range.

The SMC Diode Solutions variant is currently in active production status with 2136 units available in stock, providing immediate procurement availability. The component is supplied in tube packaging with isolated tab configuration on the TO-220-2 package, maintaining mechanical compatibility with existing board designs.

Selection of the SMC Diode Solutions MBRF1660 eliminates obsolescence risk associated with the discontinued Taiwan Semiconductor version while preserving all functional and compliance characteristics required for circuit operation.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the SMC Diode Solutions MBRF1660 directly replace the Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation MBRF1660 C0G?

A: Yes. Both components are identical in voltage rating (60V), current capacity (16A), forward voltage (750 mV @ 16A), recovery speed (≤ 500ns), reverse leakage (500 µA @ 60V), and operating temperature range (-55°C to 150°C). The TO-220-2 package configuration is mechanically compatible, enabling direct board-level substitution without circuit modification.

Q: What is the significance of the "Isolated Tab" designation on the SMC Diode Solutions package?

A: The isolated tab configuration on the TO-220-2 package indicates electrical isolation between the tab and the semiconductor junction. This is a standard feature in modern Schottky rectifier packaging and does not affect functional equivalence. Verify mounting hardware compatibility with existing thermal management solutions.

Q: Are there compliance differences between the two versions?

A: Both versions are ROHS3 compliant. The Taiwan Semiconductor version is REACH Unaffected, while the SMC Diode Solutions version is REACH Affected. Both carry EAR99 ECCN classification and 8541.10.0080 HTSUS code. Confirm REACH compliance requirements with your procurement and regulatory departments for your specific application region.

Q: What is the moisture sensitivity level for this component?

A: Both versions carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) rating, indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions during storage or handling.

Q: Is the capacitance specification relevant for substitution?

A: The Taiwan Semiconductor version does not specify capacitance. The SMC Diode Solutions version specifies 700pF @ 5V, 1MHz. This parameter does not affect substitution eligibility, as the primary electrical characteristics determining Schottky rectifier performance are voltage, current, forward voltage, and recovery speed, all of which are identical between versions.
