Schottky Rectifier, 3 A
MBR350, MBR360
Vishay High Power Products
FEATURES
Low profile, axial leaded outline
Very low forward voltage drop
High frequency operation
High purity, high temperature epoxy encapsulation for
enhanced mechanical strength and moisture resistance
Guard ring for enhanced ruggedness and long term
reliability

Note
(1) Formula used: TC = TJ - (Pd + PdREV) x RthJC;
Pd = Forward power loss = IF(AV) x VFM at (IF(AV)/D) (see fig. 6); PdREV = Inverse power loss = VR1 x IR (1 - D); IR at VR1 = 80 % rated VR
