PUUPxxH Fast Recovery Epitaxial Diode Series

Taiwan Semiconductor's fast recovery epitaxial diodes line is expanded with the PUUPxxH family. The PUUPxxH family extends the benefits of FRED technology to applications requiring up to 6 A of operating current. These high-reliability (AEC-Q101 qualified) devices deliver optimized switching speed versus reverse recovery time. Their soft reverse recovery results in lower noise switching while achieving low losses and increased efficiency. The TO-227 package heat spreader contacts provide excellent heat transfer. In addition to the 100 V and 200 V rated 3 A, 4 A, and 6 A models in the PUUP series, 3 A and 4 A versions are available in SOD-128 and DO-214 packages.

Features

• Fast switching and reverse recovery times: Increases efficiency in a wide range of power electronics designs from medium voltage to high voltage applications, lowers EMI and RFI, and simplifies snubber and filtering design
• Low reverse leakage: Industry-leading maximum I_R (1 µA at T_J = 25°C) improves efficiency and offers a more controlled switching response between forward and reverse conduction modes
• Low reverse recovery charge: Maximum Q_rr (40 nC at I_F = 0.5 A, I_R = 1.0 A, I_RR = 0.25 A) lowers parasitic ringing and EMC, reduces the need for snubbers, increases switching speed and lowers losses
• AEC-Q automotive-qualified: 175°C T_J(max) compelling for automotive and industrial applications – Production Part Approval Process (PPAP) documentation is available
• Global materials compliance: RoHS compliant, halogen-free (per IEC-61249-2-21), WEEE, REACH, California Prop. 65, JESD-201 Class 2 Whisker Test, and others
• Thermally advantageous TO-227 package: Ideal for automated placement; low-profile packaging with heat-spreader contacts provides excellent thermal management
