15A, 200V Ultrafast Diodes
The MUR1520 and RURP1520 are ultrafast diodes
(t
low forward voltage drop and are of planar, silicon nitride
passivated, ion-implanted, epitaxial construction.
These devices are intended for use as energy steering/
clamping diodes and rectifiers in a variety of switching power
supplies and other power switching applications. Their low
stored charge and ultrafast recovery with soft recovery
characteristics minimizes ringing and electrical noise in
many power switching circuits, thus reducing power loss in
the switching transistor.
Formerly developmental type TA09926.
