DESCRIPTION
HFA12PA120CPbF is a state of the art center tap ultrafast
recovery diode. Employing the latest in epitaxial construction
and advanced processing techniques it features a superb
combination of characteristics which result in performance
which is unsurpassed by any rectifier previously available.
The HFA12PA120CPbF has basic ratings of 1200 V and 6 A
per leg continuous current. In addition to ultrafast recovery
time, the HEXFRED^® product line features extremely low
values of peak recovery current (I_RRM) and does not exhibit
any tendency to “snap-off” during the t_b portion of recovery.
The HEXFRED features combine to offer designers a
rectifier with lower noise and significantly lower switching
losses in both the diode and the switching transistor. These
HEXFRED advantages can help to significantly reduce
snubbing, component count and heatsink sizes. The
HEXFRED HFA12PA120CPbF is ideally suited for
applications in power supplies and power conversion
systems (such as inverters, converters, UPS systems, and
power factor correction circuits), motor drives, and many
other similar applications where high speed, high efficiency
is needed.
