th
Generation thinQ!™ SiC Schottky Diode
ThinQ!™ Generation 5 represents Infineon leading edge technology for the SiC
Schottky Barrier diodes. A combination with a new, more compact design and thinwafer technology results is a new family of products showing improved efficiency
over all load conditions, resulting from both the improved thermal characteristics
and a lower figure of merit (Qc x Vf).
The new thinQ!™ Generation 5 has been designed to complement our 650V
CoolMOS™ families: this ensures meeting the most stringent application
requirements in this voltage range.
