15A, 200V Ultrafast Dual Diode
Features
The RURG1520CC is an ultrafast dual diode with soft
recovery characteristics (trr < 30ns). It has low forward
voltage drop and is of silicon nitride passivated
ion-implanted epitaxial planar construction.

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 recovery with soft recovery characteristic
minimizes ringing and electrical noise in many power
switching circuits, reducing power loss in the switching
transistors.

DEFINITIONS
VF = Instantaneous forward voltage (pw = 300µs, D = 2%).
IR = Instantaneous reverse current.
trr = Reverse recovery time (See Figure 6), summation of ta + tb.
ta = Time to reach peak reverse current (See Figure 6).
tb = Time from peak IRM to projected zero crossing of IRM based on a straight line from peak IRM through 25% of IRM (See Figure 6).
RθJC = Thermal resistance junction to case.
pw = pulse width.
D = duty cycle.
