DESCRIPTION/APPLICATIONS
1 3 1 3
N/C Anode N/C Anode State of the art hyperfast recovery rectifiers designed with
2 optimized performance of forward voltage drop, hyperfast
D PAK TO-262
recovery time, and soft recovery.
The planar structure and the platinum doped life time control
guarantee the best overall performance, ruggedness and
PRODUCT SUMMARY reliability characteristics.
These devices are intended for use in PFC boost stage in
trr (typical) 22 ns
the AC-DC section of SMPS, inverters or as freewheeling
IF(AV) 15 A diodes.
VR 600 V The extremely optimized stored charge and low recovery
current minimize the switching losses and reduce over
dissipation in the switching element and snubbers.
