The SS36-E3/9CT is a surface-mount Schottky Barrier Rectifier manufactured by Vishay. It is designed for high-efficiency rectification with a low forward voltage drop and fast switching capabilities. This makes it well-suited for applications requiring minimal power loss and rapid response times in high-frequency circuits.

Applications:

• Switch-mode power supplies (SMPS): Used for efficient rectification in AC-DC and DC-DC power supplies.
• High-frequency inverters: Provides efficient rectification in inverter circuits.
• DC-DC converters: Used in portable devices and other applications where voltage conversion is required.
• Freewheeling diodes: Protects inductive loads by providing a path for current when the load is switched off.
• Reverse polarity protection: Prevents damage from incorrect polarity connections.

Features:

• Low forward voltage drop: Reduces power dissipation and improves efficiency.
• High surge current capability: Withstands transient high current conditions.
• Fast switching speed: Enables efficient operation at high frequencies.
• Surface-mount package (SMB/DO-214AA): Facilitates automated assembly and compact designs.
• RoHS compliant: Meets environmental regulations for hazardous substances.

Benefits:

• Enhanced energy efficiency: Minimizes power losses, leading to energy savings.
• Improved reliability: Offers stable performance under a range of operating conditions.
• Reduced heat generation: Lowers the need for extensive heat sinking, simplifying design and reducing cost.
• Compact design: Small surface-mount package allows for high-density circuit layouts.
• Simplified manufacturing: Compatible with automated assembly processes, reducing manufacturing time and cost.

Technical Specifications:

The SS36-E3/9CT has a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM) of 60V and a maximum average forward rectified current (IF(AV)) of 3.0A. The typical forward voltage (VF) is approximately 0.55V at 3.0A. It operates within a junction temperature range of -55°C to +150°C. The device is packaged in a DO-214AA (SMB) surface-mount package. This part is designed to handle high surge currents and provides efficient rectification due to its Schottky barrier construction. The epoxy molding compound meets UL 94 V-0 flammability rating, and the terminals are matte tin plated for solderability. The Vishay SS36-E3/9CT is well-suited for applications requiring a reliable and efficient high-frequency rectifier.
