FRED Pt Gen 5 600V Ultrafast Rectifiers in the TO-244 Package Offer Best in Class Conduction and Switching Losses
Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. has introduced four new FRED Pt Gen 5 600 V Ultrafast rectifiers in the TO-244 package that offer lower conduction while maintaining low reverse recovery losses. The new 240 A, 300 A, 480 A, and 600 A rectifiers are designed to increase the efficiency of medium frequency power converters and of hard and soft-switched or resonant designs and are ideal for industrial applications, such as high-frequency welding and ballast water management systems. The new VS-VS5HD240CW60, VS-VS5HD300CW60, VS-VS5HD480CW60, and VS-VS5HD600CW60 offer low Qrr down to 260 nC typical, fast recovery time down to 52 ns, and an operating temperature range up to +175 °C.
