SemiSouth launches world’s highest current (60A) SiC power Schottky diode

Delivering 20% more current than its nearest competitor the TO-247-packaged SDP60S120D has a Qc of only 260nC and an operating temperature range -55 to 175degC. Featuring a positive temperature coefficient for ease of paralleling and temperature-independent switching behaviour, the new Schottky diode also exhibits a zero reverse recovery current and zero forward recovery voltage

Comments Dieter Liesabeths, Director of Sales: “Our new 60A SDP60S120D enables uses to replace three paralleled 20A parts reducing power dissipation by over 12% as well as saving space and cost.”
