SB540 Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The Vishay SB540 is a Schottky Barrier Rectifier series, with the SB540 part number indicating a specific voltage rating within this series. These rectifiers are characterized by their guardring for overvoltage protection, extremely fast switching capabilities, and a low forward voltage drop.

 

Key electrical specifications include a maximum average forward current of 5.0 A at a 0.375" lead length, and a peak forward surge current of 220 A for an 8.3 ms single half sine-wave. The forward voltage drop is typically 0.48 V or 0.65 V at 5.0 A. The maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage ranges from 20 V to 60 V across the series, with the SB540 likely falling within this range.

 

Operating and storage temperatures are rated from -65 °C to +150 °C. The device is housed in a DO-201AD case, suitable for through-hole mounting. The molding compound meets UL 94 V-0 flammability rating, and the terminals are matte tin plated.

 

Typical applications for the SB540 include low voltage high frequency inverters, freewheeling circuits, DC-to-DC converters, and polarity protection. Its fast switching and low forward voltage make it suitable for power supply and power management circuits.
