Description
The RHRP3060 are hypersast diodes with soft recovery charac-
teristics (
trr
< 40ns). They have half the recovery time of ultrafast
diodes and are of silicon nitride passivated ion-implanted epi-
taxial planar construction.
These devices are intended for use as freewheeling/clamping
diodes and rectifiers in a variety of switching power supplies
and other power switching applications. Their low stored charge
and hyperfast soft recovery minimize ringing and electrical
noise in many power switching circuits, thus reducing power
loss in the switching transistors.
Formerly developmental type TA49063.
