Data Sheet

File Number
2775.5
15A, 200V Ultrafast Dual Diodes
The MUR3020PT and RURH1520CC are ultrafast dual
diodes (t
rr
< 30ns) with soft recovery characteristics. They
have a low forward voltage drop and are of planar, silicon
nitride passivated, ion-implanted, epitaxial construction.
These devices are intended for use as energy steering/
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 minimizes ringing and electrical noise in
many power switching circuits thus reducing power loss in
the switching transistor.
Formerly developmental type TA09926.
