RHRG30120CC Data Sheet January 2000 File Number 3411.3 30A, 1200V Hyperfast Dual Diode Features The RHRG30120CC is a hyperfast dual diode with soft recovery characteristics (trr < 65ns). It has half the recovery time of ultrafast diodes and is of silicon nitride passivated ion-implanted epitaxial planar construction. • Hyperfast with Soft Recovery . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . <65ns This device is intended for use as a freewheeling/clamping diode and rectifier in a variety of high frequency switching power supplies and other power switching applications. Its 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 PACKAGE TO-247 • Planar Construction Applications • Switching Power Supplies • General Purpose Ordering Information RHRG30120CC • Reverse Voltage . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .1200V • Power Switching Circuits Formerly developmental type TA49041.
