RURG1520CC
15A, 200V Ultrafast Dual Diode
Features
• Ultrafast with Soft Recovery........................... <30ns
• Operating Temperature .................................. 175°C
• Reverse Voltage..............................................200V
• Avalanche Energy Rated
• Planar Construction
Description
The RURG1520CC is an ultrafast dual diode with soft recovery
characteristics (trr<30ns). It has low forward voltage drop and is
of silicon nitride passivated ion-implanted epitaxial planar con-
struction.
This device is intended for use as a freewheeling/clamping
diode and rectifier in a variety of switching power supplies and
other power switching applications. Its low stored charge and
ultrafast recovery with soft recovery characteristic minimizes
ringing and electrical noise in many power switching circuits,
reducting power loss in the switching transistors.
Formerly developmental type TA09926.
Applications
• Switching Power Supplies
• Power Switching Circuits
• General Purpose
