RHRG3040CC, RHRG3060CC Data Sheet January 2000 File Number 3939.3 30A, 400V - 600V Hyperfast Dual Diodes Features The RHRG3040CC and RHRG3060CC are hyperfast diodes with soft recovery characteristics (trr < 40ns). They have half the recovery time of ultrafast diodes and are silicon nitride passivated ion-implanted epitaxial planar construction. • Hyperfast with Soft Recovery . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . <40ns These devices are intended for use as freewheeling/ clamping diodes and rectifiers in a variety of switching power supplies and other power switching applications. Their low stored charge and hyperfast soft recovery minimize ringing and electrical noise in many power switching circuits, thus reducing power loss in the switching transistors. • Avalanche Energy Rated • Reverse Voltage Up To . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .600V • Planar Construction Applications • Switching Power Supplies • Power Switching Circuits Formerly developmental type TA49063. • General Purpose Ordering Information PART NUMBER • Operating Temperature. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .175oC PACKAGE BRAND RHRG3040CC TO-247 RHRG3040C RHRG3060CC TO-247 RHRG3060C Packaging JEDEC STYLE TO-247 ANODE 2 CATHODE ANODE 1 NOTE: When ordering, use the entire part number.
