General Semiconductor AS3528, AS3524 Datasheet

AVALANCHE ALTERNATOR RECTIFIER - AS3524 AND AS3528

PASSIVATED ANISOTROPIC RECTIFIER TECHNOLOGY

Mean Breakdown Voltage - 24 and 28 Volts Peak Pulse Current - 65 Amperes

FEATURES

¨ Plastic package has Underwriters Laboratory

Flammability Classification 94V-0

¨ High temperature stability due to unique oxide

passivation

¨ Patented Passivated Anisotropic Rectifier

(PAR) construction

¨ Integrally molded heatsink provides

a very low thermal resistance
for maximum heat dissipation

¨ Low leakage current at TJ=175¡C
¨ Low forward voltage drop
¨ Ideally suited for alternator rectification and load dump

protection

¨ High temperature soldering guaranteed:

260¡C for 10 seconds at terminals
