ES2CHR5G

Silicon Carbide Schottky diodes are a type of diode, also known as a rectifier, made from Silicon Carbide (SiC) semiconductor material. The SI2CHR5G diodes have the ability to operate at much higher temperatures than the conventional silicon diodes. This makes them suitable for a variety of applications, including high efficiency power rectification, inverter and other high temperature or fast switching applications.

The SI2CHR5G diode is a single Rectifier with a peak reverse voltage for its rated current of 600V. It is able to handle peak repetitive forward current of 5A and RMS forward current of 5A at temperatures up to 175°C. The device is lead-free, RoHS compatible and provides excellent thermal reaction and fast switching performance.

The Si2CHR5G diode is designed for use in applications where its superior performance is needed. It is suitable for use in high voltage rectification, high temperature inverters, motor drives, and high power rectification. Its performance is especially well-suited for industrial automation, medical systems, solar and wind energy systems, as well as power supply design. The device is also suitable for automotive applications such as AC-DC power supplies, in-car chargers and LED lighting.

The SI2CHR5G diode works by using the difference in the junction voltage across the device to establish a reverse voltage. In its forward bias state, the diode appears less like a simple resistor and more like an ideal diode, so the circuit sees very little resistance. This combination of characteristics ensures fast switching, low forward voltage drop, and low reverse leakage current.

In summary, the SI2CHR5G diode is a single rectifier with applications in high efficiency power rectification, inverter and other high temperature or fast switching applications. It has a peak reverse voltage of 600V, a peak repetitive forward current of 5A, and a RMS forward current of 5A. The device offers excellent thermal reaction, fast switching performance, low forward voltage drop and low reverse leakage current. The SI2CHR5G diode is ideal for use in a variety of industrial, medical, automotive and renewable energy applications.
