Specifications

The SB360TR has a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 60V and a forward current of 3.0A. It features a very low forward voltage drop, typically around 0.5V at 3A. Its surge current capability is 80A. The operating temperature ranges from -65°C to +150°C. It is available in a SMB (DO-214AA) package.

The Schottky Barrier Rectifier uses a metal-semiconductor junction to form a Schottky barrier. This results in a very fast switching action, which is advantageous in high-frequency circuits. The SMB package allows for surface mounting, simplifying PCB assembly. The device is designed for automated placement and soldering, reducing manufacturing costs. Its low reverse leakage current and high operating temperature further enhance its suitability for demanding applications.
