Features
STTH4L06
Turbo 2 ultrafast high voltage rectifier
■ Ultrafast switching
■ Low forward voltage drop
■ Low leakage current (platinum doping)
■ High operating junction temperature
Description
The STTH4L06, which uses ST Turbo 2 600 V
technology, is specially suited as boost diode in
discontinuous or critical mode power factor
corrections.
Packaged in DO-201AD and DO-15, this device is
intended for use as a free wheeling diode in
power supplies and other power switching
applications.
