Product Brief
Features
Vbr at 650V
650V SiC thinQ!™ Generation 5 diodes
Improved Figure of Merit (Qc x Vf)
Your way is our way: improve efficiency and solution costs
No reverse recovery charge
Soft switching reverse
recovery waveform
Temperature independent
ThinQ!™ Generation 5 represents Infineon’s leading edge technology for
SiC Schottky Barrier diodes. The Infineon proprietary diffusion soldering
process, already introduced with G3, is now combined with a new, more
compact design and thin wafer technology. The result is a new family of
products showing improved efficiency over all load conditions, coming from
switching behavior
High operating temperature
(Tj max 175°C)
Improved surge capability
Pb-free lead plating
10 years manufacturing of SiC diodes
both the improved thermal characteristics and a lower figure of merit (Qc x Vf)
.
Benefits
The new thinQ!™ Generation 5 has been designed to complement our 650V
CoolMOS™ families: this ensures meeting the most stringent application
requirements in this voltage range.
