Ultrafast Soft Recovery Diode,
60 A FRED Pt
TM
60EPU02PbF/60APU02PbF
Vishay High Power Products
FEATURES
Ultrafast recovery
175 °C operating junction temperature
Lead (Pb)-free (“PbF” suffix)
Designed and qualified for industrial level
BENEFITS
Reduced RFI and EMI
Higher frequency operation
Reduced snubbing
Reduced parts count
DESCRIPTION/APPLICATIONS
These diodes are optimized to reduce losses and EMI/RFI
in high frequency power conditioning systems.
The softness of the recovery eliminates the need for a
snubber in most applications. These devices are ideally
suited for HF welding, power converters and other
applications where switching losses are not significant
portion of the total losses.
