RURH15100CC
Data Sheet January 2000
15A, 1000V Ultrafast Dual Diode
The RURH15100CC is an ultrafast dual diode with soft
recovery characteristics (t
< 100ns). It has low forward
rr
voltage drop and is of silicon nitride passivated
ion-implanted epitaxial planar construction.
This device is intended for use as a freewheel/clamping
diode and rectifier in a variety of switching power supplies
and other powerswitchingapplications.Itslow stored charge
and ultrafast recovery with soft recovery characteristics
minimizes ringing and electrical noise in many power
switching circuits, reducing power loss in the switching
transistors.
Formerly developmental type TA09906.

DEFINITIONS
VF = Instantaneous forward voltage (pw = 300µs, D = 2%).
IR = Instantaneous reverse current.
trr = Reverse recovery time at dIF/dt = 100A/µs (See Figure 6), summation of ta + tb.
ta = Time to reach peak reverse current at dIF/dt = 100A/µs (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).
R
= Thermal resistance junction to case.
θJC
pw = Pulse width.
D = Duty cycle.
