RURG1540CC, RURG1560CC
15A, 400V - 600V Ultrafast Dual Diodes
The RURG1540CC and RURG1560CC are ultrafast dual
diodes with soft recovery characteristics (t
have low forward voltage drop and are of silicon nitride
passivated ion-implanted epitaxial planar construction.
rr
< 55ns). They
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 ultrafast recovery
with soft recovery characteristics minimize ringing and
electrical noise in many power switching circuits reducing
power loss in the switching transistors.
Formerly developmental type TA09905.
