Matched, Four-Diode Monolithic Array This four-diode array is designed for general purpose use as individual
diodes or as a high-speed, high-current bridge. It is particularly useful on
the outputs of high-speed power MOSFET drivers where Schottky diodes
High Peak Current
are needed to clamp any negative excursions caused by ringing on the
driven line.
Low-Cost MINIDIP Package
Low-Forward Voltage
These diodes are also ideally suited for use as voltage clamps when driv-
ing inductive loads such as relays and solenoids, and to provide a path
for current free-wheeling in motor drive applications.
Parallelable for Lower VF or Higher IF
Fast Recovery Time
The use of Schottky diode technology features high efficiency through
lowered forward voltage drop and decreased reverse recovery time.
Military Temperature Range Available
This single monolithic chip is fabricated in both hermetic CERDIP and
copper-leaded plastic packages. The UC1611 in ceramic is designed for
-55°C to +125°C environments but with reduced peak current capability:
while the UC3611 in plastic has higher current rating over a 0°C to +70°C
ambient temperature range.
