VS-HFA240NJ40CPbF www.vishay.com Vishay Semiconductors HEXFRED® Ultrafast Soft Recovery Diode, 240 A FEATURES Lug terminal anode 1 Lug terminal anode 2 • Very low Qrr and trr • UL approved file E222165 • Designed and qualified for industrial level • Material categorization: For definitions of compliance please see www.vishay.com/doc?99912 Base common cathode TO-244 BENEFITS • Reduced RFI and EMI • Reduced snubbing DESCRIPTION PRODUCT SUMMARY IF(AV) 240 A VR 400 V IF(DC) at TC 197 A at 100 °C Package TO-244 Circuit Two diodes common cathode HEXFRED® diodes are optimized to reduce losses and EMI/RFI in high frequency power conditioning systems. An extensive characterization of the recovery behavior for different values of current, temperature and dIF/dt simplifies the calculations of losses in the operating conditions. The softness of the recovery eliminates the need for a snubber in most applications. These devices are ideally suited for power converters, motors drives and other applications where switching losses are significant portion of the total losses.
