RURG15120CC Data Sheet January 2000 File Number 3695.2 15A, 1200V Ultrafast Dual Diode Features The RURG15120CC is an ultrafast dual diode with soft recovery characteristics (trr < 100ns). It has low forward voltage drop and is of silicon nitride passivated ion-implanted epitaxial planar construction. • Ultrafast with Soft Recovery . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . <100ns This device is intended for use as a freewheeling/clamping diode and rectifier in a variety of switching power supplies and other power switching applications. Its low stored charge and ultrafast soft recovery minimize ringing and electrical noise in many power switching circuits, thus reducing power loss in the switching transistors. • Avalanche Energy Rated PACKAGE TO-247 • Planar Construction Applications • Switching Power Supplies • General Purpose Ordering Information RURG15120CC • Reverse Voltage . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .1200V • Power Switching Circuits Formerly developmental type TA49097.
