File Number 3409.3
30A, 1200V Hyperfast Diode
Features
The RHRP30120 is a hyperfast diode with soft recovery
• Hyperfast with Soft Recovery . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .<65ns
characteristics (t < 65ns).It has half the recovery time of
ultrafast diodes and is of silicon nitride passivated
ion-implanted epitaxial planar construction.

• Avalanche Energy Rated
This device is intended for use as a freewheeling/clamping
diode and rectifier in a variety of high frequency switching
power supplies and other power switching applications. Its low
stored charge and hyperfast soft recovery minimize ringing and
electrical noise in many power switching circuits, reducing
power loss in the switching transistors.

• Switching Power Supplies
• Power Switching Circuits
• General Purpose
Formerly developmental type TA49041.
