DESCRIPTION
The BUF410 is manufactured using High Voltage
TO-218
Multi Epitaxial Planar technology for high
switchingspeeds and high voltagecapacity. They
use a Cellular Emitter structure with planar edge
termination to enhance switching speeds while
maintaininga wide RBSOA.
The BUF series is designed for use in
