The SiC diode is an ultra high performance power Schottky diode. It is manufactured using a silicon carbide substrate. The wide band gap material allows the design of a Schottky diode structure with a 650 V rating. Due to the Schottky construction, no recovery is shown at turn-off and ringing patterns are negligible. The minimal capacitive turn-off behavior is independent of temperature. Housed in D²PAK HV, this diode is perfectly suited for a usage in PFC applications, in charging station, DC/DC, easing the compliance to IEC-60664-1.
