Description
The RURP6120CC is an ultrafast dual diode with soft recov-
ery characteristics (t
RR
< 70ns). It has low forward voltage
drop and is silicon nitride passivated ion-implanted epitaxial
planar construction.
This device is intended for use as a freewheeling/clamping
diode and rectifier in a variety of switching power supplies
and other power switching applications. Its low stored
charge and ultrafast soft recovery minimize ringing and elec-
trical noise in many power switching circuits reducing power
loss in the switching transistors.
Formerly developmental type TA49039.
