VS-60EPU06PbF, VS-60APU06PbF

Vishay Semiconductors

FEATURES

• Ultrafast recovery time

• Low forward voltage drop

• 175 °C operating junction temperature

• Compliant to RoHS Directive 2002/95/EC

• 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.
