- Low leakage current - Designed and qualified according to JEDEC[®] -JESD 47 - Material categorization: for definitions of compliance please see www.vishay.com/doc?99912 ## **DESCRIPTION / APPLICATIONS** State of the art hyperfast recovery rectifiers designed with optimized performance of forward voltage drop, hyperfast recovery time, and soft recovery. The planar structure and the platinum doped life time control guarantee the best overall performance, ruggedness and reliability characteristics. These devices are intended for use in PFC boost stage in the AC/DC section of SMPS, inverters or as freewheeling diodes. Their extremely optimized stored charge and low recovery current minimize the switching losses and reduce over dissipation in the switching element and snubbers. ## **MECHANICAL DATA** **Case:** TO-220AC 2L Molding compound meets UL 94 V-0 flammability rating **Terminals:** matte tin plated leads, solderable per J-STD-002 ## **ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM RATINGS** **==> picture [475 x 72] intentionally omitted <==** **----- Start of picture text -----**
