Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the MBRF2060CTG is determined by the following critical parameters:

Primary Substitution Criteria:

• Diode Configuration: 1 Pair Common Cathode
• Technology: Schottky
• Voltage - DC Reverse (Vr) (Max): 60 V
• Mounting Type: Through Hole
• Package / Case: TO-220-3 Full Pack

Secondary Compatibility Factors:

• Current - Average Rectified (Io) (per Diode): 10 A minimum
• Voltage - Forward (Vf) (Max) @ If: ≤ 850 mV @ rated current
• Operating Temperature - Junction: Must encompass -65°C to 175°C or equivalent operational range
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant

Substitute parts are grouped into two categories:

Direct Equivalents: Parts that match all primary criteria and maintain electrical performance within specified tolerances. These include MBRF2060CT-E3/45 and MBRF2060CTHE3/45, which share identical base specifications with the main part.

Functional Substitutes: Parts that satisfy primary substitution criteria but may exhibit variations in secondary parameters such as forward voltage, reverse leakage current, or current rating. These parts maintain the same diode configuration, voltage rating, and package type while offering alternative electrical characteristics suitable for the same application class.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Direct Replacement (Preferred):

MBRF2060CT-E3/45 and MBRF2060CTHE3/45 from Vishay General Semiconductor - Diodes Division are the primary substitutes for the obsolete MBRF2060CTG. Both parts maintain identical electrical specifications with forward voltage of 800 mV @ 10 A and reverse leakage of 150 µA @ 60 V. The MBRF2060CTHE3/45 carries AEC-Q101 automotive qualification and is suitable for applications requiring automotive-grade components. Both parts are in active production status with adequate inventory availability.

Active Substitutes with Equivalent Current Rating:

DSA20C60PN and DSB20C60PN from IXYS are functionally equivalent alternatives with 10 A current rating and 60 V reverse voltage. DSB20C60PN offers superior electrical characteristics with lower forward voltage (730 mV @ 10 A) and significantly reduced reverse leakage (6 mA @ 60 V) compared to the original part. DSA20C60PN maintains the original reverse leakage specification (150 µA @ 60 V) with identical forward voltage (850 mV @ 10 A). Both are in active production.

Higher Current Capability Substitute:

FMW-4306 from Sanken Electric USA Inc. provides 15 A current rating with the same 60 V reverse voltage and TO-220-3 Full Pack configuration. This part is suitable for applications requiring higher current capacity while maintaining voltage compatibility. Forward voltage is 700 mV @ 15 A, and reverse leakage is 3 mA @ 60 V.

Lower Current Alternatives:

RB205T-60 from Rohm Semiconductor and STPS10L60CFP from STMicroelectronics are suitable for applications with reduced current requirements. RB205T-60 provides 7.5 A rating with 580 mV forward voltage. STPS10L60CFP provides 5 A rating with 550 mV forward voltage. Both maintain 60 V reverse voltage and TO-220-3 Full Pack configuration.

Compliance Considerations:

All substitute parts listed are ROHS3 Compliant and carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating, matching the original part's environmental compliance profile. All parts are classified under ECCN EAR99 and HTSUS 8541.10.0080.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can MBRF2060CT-E3/45 directly replace MBRF2060CTG without circuit modification?

A: MBRF2060CT-E3/45 is a direct electrical equivalent with matching 60 V reverse voltage, 10 A current rating, and Schottky technology. The primary difference is the isolated tab package variant (ITO-220AB versus TO-220FP). Mechanical mounting compatibility must be verified for your specific PCB layout. The part is in active production with established supply chain.

Q: What is the difference between DSA20C60PN and DSB20C60PN?

A: Both parts share identical voltage and current ratings (60 V, 10 A) and TO-220-3 Full Pack configuration. DSB20C60PN exhibits superior electrical performance with lower forward voltage (730 mV @ 10 A versus 850 mV @ 10 A) and significantly lower reverse leakage (6 mA @ 60 V versus 300 µA @ 60 V). Selection depends on application requirements for power dissipation and leakage current tolerance.

Q: Is FMW-4306 suitable as a substitute if my circuit only requires 10 A?

A: FMW-4306 provides 15 A current rating, which exceeds the 10 A requirement of MBRF2060CTG. The higher current rating does not prevent its use in 10 A applications. However, verify that the forward voltage characteristic (700 mV @ 15 A) is acceptable for your circuit design. The part maintains 60 V reverse voltage and TO-220-3 Full Pack configuration.

Q: What are the temperature range implications when selecting a substitute?

A: MBRF2060CTG operates from -65°C to 175°C. Most active substitutes operate from -55°C to 175°C, which represents a 10°C reduction in the lower temperature limit. If your application requires operation below -55°C, MBRF2060CT-E3/45 and MBRF2060CTHE3/45 maintain the -65°C lower limit. Verify your application's actual operating temperature range before selection.

Q: Can STPS10L60CFP be used in place of MBRF2060CTG?

A: STPS10L60CFP is a functional substitute with matching 60 V reverse voltage and TO-220-3 Full Pack configuration. However, it provides only 5 A current rating compared to the original 10 A specification. This part is suitable only for applications with reduced current requirements. Forward voltage is 550 mV @ 5 A, which is lower than the original 850 mV @ 10 A.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS compliant?

A: All substitute parts listed are ROHS3 Compliant, matching the original MBRF2060CTG compliance status. All parts carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating and are classified under ECCN EAR99 for export control purposes.

Q: What is the significance of the isolated tab variant in MBRF2060CT-E3/45?

A: The isolated tab variant (ITO-220AB package) provides electrical isolation between the mounting tab and the diode circuit. This differs from the standard TO-220FP package where the tab may be electrically connected. Verify your PCB design requirements for tab isolation before selecting this variant.

Q: Which substitute offers the lowest forward voltage drop?

A: STPS10L60CFP offers the lowest forward voltage at 550 mV @ 5 A. DSB20C60PN provides 730 mV @ 10 A at the original current rating. FMW-4306 provides 700 mV @ 15 A. Selection based on forward voltage must account for the corresponding current rating and application power dissipation requirements.
