RHRP840CC, RHRP860CC
8A, 400V - 600V Hyperfast Dual Diodes
The RHRP840CC and RHRP860CC are hyperfast dual
diodes with soft recovery characteristics (trr < 30ns). They
have half the recovery time of ultrafast diodes and are of
silicon nitride passivated ion-implanted epitaxial 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 development type TA49059.
