RURP840CC, RURP860CC
8A, 400V - 600V Ultrafast Dual Diodes
The RURP840CC and RURP860CC are ultrafast dual
diodes with soft recovery characteristics (t
rr
< 60ns). They
have low forward voltage drop and are 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 ultrafast soft
recovery minimize ringing and electrical noise in many
power switching circuits reducing power loss in the switching
transistors.
Formerly developmental type TA09616.
