10 to 30 A rectifiers target automotive use

Sixteen, 10 to 30-A FRED Pt fast recovery rectifiers in a low-profile 1.7-mm height SMPD (TO-263AC) package, suit automotive and telecom applications. They combine extremely fast and soft recovery characteristics with low leakage current and low forward voltage drop to reduce switching losses and over-dissipation in automotive and telecom applications while providing a high-density alternative to the TO-263 (D²PAK) package.

Available in AEC-Q101-qualified and standard versions, the FRED Pt rectifiers released today offer reverse voltages of 200 and 600 V, reverse recovery time down to 25 ns, and typical forward voltage drop down to 0.75 V in single- and dual-die configurations. Footprint-compatible with the TO-263 package, the devices offer a lower package height for increased power density and efficiency and to enable slimmer end products. Specified for output and snubber operation, the rectifiers are optimized for dc/dc converters, power factor correction, low-voltage inverters, and chopper motor drives in automotive engine control units, antilock braking systems, LED and HID lighting, and telecom dc/dc bricks. The components have an operating junction temperature from -55° to +175°C.
