DESCRIPTION / APPLICATIONS
Wide band gap SiC based 1200 V Schottky diode, designed
for high performance and ruggedness.
Optimum choice for high speed hard switching and efficient
operation over a wide temperature range, it is also
recommended for all applications suffering from Silicon
ultrafast recovery behavior.
Typical applications include AC/DC PFC and DC/DC ultra
high frequency output rectification in FBPS and LLC
converters.
