50A, 1200V Hyperfast Diode
The RHRU50120 (TA49100) are hyperfast diodes with soft
recovery characteristics (tRR < 85ns). They have half the
recovery time of ultrafast diodes and are silicon nitride passi-
vated ion-implanted epitaxial planar construction.
These devices are intended for use as freewheeling/clamp-
ing diodes and rectifiers in a variety of switching power sup-
plies and other power switching applications. Their low
stored charge and hyperfast soft recovery minimize ringing
and electrical noise in many power switching circuits reduc-
ing power loss in the switching transistors.
