NTE578
Silicon Rectifier
Schottky Barrier, General Purpose
Description:
The NTE578 is a general purpose rectifier employing the Schottky Barrier principle in a large area
metal–to–silicon power diode. State–of–the art geometry features epitaxial construction with oxide
passivation and metal overlap contact. Ideally suited for use as rectifiers in low–voltage, high–fre-
quency inverters, free wheeling diodes, and polarity protection diodes.
Features:
D Low Reverse Current
D Low Stored Charge, Majority Carrier Conduction
D Low Power Loss/High Efficiency
D Highly Stable Oxide Passivated Junction
D Guard–Ring for Stress Protection
D Low Forward Voltage
D 150°C Operating Junction Temperature
D High Surge Capacity
