RHRP1540, RHRP1560
15 A, 400 V - 600 V,
Hyperfast Diode
The RHRP1540, RHRP1560 is a hyperfast diode with soft
recovery characteristics. It has the half recovery time of
ultrafast diodes and is silicon nitride passivated
ionimplanted epitaxial planar construction. These devices
are intended to be used as freewheeling/ clamping
diodes and diodes 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 reducing power loss in the switching transistors.
