Ultrafast, Soft Recovery Diode
Bulletin PD-20617 07/00
HFA04SD60S
Features
• Ultrafast Recovery Time
• Ultrasoft Recovery
• Very Low I
• Very Low Q
• Guaranteed Avalanche
• Specified at Operating Temperature

Benefits
• Reduced RFI and EMI
• Reduced Power Loss in Diode and
Switching Transistor
• Higher Frequency Operation
• Reduced Snubbing
• Reduced Parts Count
Description/ Applications
These diodes are optimized to reduce losses and EMI/RFI in
high frequency power conditioning systems. The softness of the
recovery eliminates the need for a snubber in most applications.
These devices are ideally suited for freewheeling, flyback,
power converters, motor drives, and other applications where
high speed and reduced switching losses are design
requirements.
