Description

HEXFRED® Ultrafast Soft Recovery Diode, 2 x 8 A. International Rectifier's HFA16TA60CS is a state of the art center tap ultra fast recovery diode. Employing the latest in epitaxial construction and advanced processing techniques HFA16TA60CS features a superb combination of characteristics which result in performance which is unsurpassed by any rectifier previously available. With basic ratings of 600 volts and 8 amps per Leg continuous current, the HFA16TA60CS is especially well suited for use as the companion diode for IGBTs and MOSFETs. In addition to ultra fast recovery time, the HEXFRED product line features extremely low values of peak recovery current (IRRM) and does not exhibit any tendency to "snap-off" during the tb portion of recovery. The HEXFRED features combine to offer designers a rectifier with lower noise and significantly lower switching losses in both the diode and the switching transistor. These HEXFRED advantages can help to significantly reduce snubbing, component count and heatsink sizes. The HEXFRED HFA16TA60CS is ideally suited for applications in power supplies and power conversion systems (such as inverters), motor drives, and many other similar applications where high speed, high efficiency is needed.
