Surface Mountable

Fast Soft Recovery Diode, 8 A

8EWF..SPbF Soft Recovery Series

Vishay High Power Products

FEATURES/DESCRIPTION

The 8EWF..SPbF fast soft recovery rectifier

series has been optimized for combined short

reverse recovery time, low forward voltage drop

and low leakage current.

The glass passivation ensures stable reliable operation in

the most severe temperature and power cycling conditions.

This series is designed and qualified for industrial level and

lead (Pb)-free.

APPLICATIONS

• Output rectification and freewheeling diode in inverters,

choppers and converters

• Input rectifications where severe restrictions on conducted

EMI should be met
