NTE6232
Powerblock Module
Description:
The NTE6232 uses 2 power diodes in series and the semiconductors are electrically isolated from
the metal base, allowing c ommon heatsinks and c ompact assemblies to be built. This device is
intended for general purpose applications such as battery chargers, welders and plating equipment
and where high voltage and high current are required.
