FEPB16JTHE3/45

Diodes - Rectifiers - Arrays

The FEPB16JTHE3/45 is a rectifier diode array specifically designed for high performance surface-mount applications. It is constructed from two independent, high-efficiency diodes featuring two anodes and two cathodes. The diode has been designed using Shottky Barrier technology and operates with a maximum forward voltage of 1.1 volts and a minimum reverse voltage of 40 volts.

The FEPB16JTHE3/45 is constructed with a low profile for use with higher density circuit boards, and its small size aids in space savings. It offers enhanced power dissipation and is ohmically matched for uniform operation over time. In addition, the series is lead-free, halogen free and RoHS compliant.

Application Field and Working Principle

The FEPB16JTHE3/45 provides a powerful, yet space saving solution for a variety of applications, including high-power DC/DC converters, low-power DC/DC converters, AC/DC bridges, power amplifiers, and other high-power RF applications. It is suitable for a wide range of devices, such as digital cameras, DVD players, and DVD recorders.

The diode array is designed to be reverse-biased, allowing the two anodes to move out of the circuit pathway, inhibiting current flow. The reverse biasing means that it will only conduct electricity when the polarity of the voltage is reversed, providing efficient power conversion with very low power dissipation. This technology aids in increasing the efficiency of the circuit, reducing power losses from the circuit to a minimum and operating temperature to a maximum. The diode array provides fast switching times and low noise, making it suitable for high frequency switching applications.

The FEPB16JTHE3/45 is built with a low thermal resistance, so that it can be used in higher temperature environments. It is also designed to withstand high transient voltages, meaning that it is very reliable in high ripple applications. Its small size also helps reduce circuit board area, aiding in space saving.

The FEPB16JTHE3/45 diode array provides a cost-effective option for DC/DC switch mode power supply conversion, and is highly reliable in a variety of applications. It is ideal for use in devices requiring a small footprint, low thermal resistance, and high power dissipation.
