RHRP8100
Data Sheet January 2000 File Number 3667.2
8A, 1000V Hyperfast Diode
The RHRP8100 is a hyperfast diode with soft recovery
characteristic (t
< 60ns). It has half the recovery time of
rr
ultrafast diodes and is of silicon nitride passivated
ion-implanted epitaxial planar construction.
This device is intended for use as freewheeling/clamping
diode and rectifier in a variety of switching power supplies
and other powerswitchingapplications.Itslow stored charge
and hyperfast soft recovery minimize ringing and electrical
noise in many power switching circuits, thus reducing power
loss in the switching transistors.
Formerly developmental type TA49060.
