Description

The RHRP1540 and RHRP1560 are hyperfast diodes with soft recovery characteristics (t_rr < 35ns). They have half the
recovery time of ultrafast diodes and are silicon nitride passivated ion-implanted epitaxial planar construction.

These devices RHRP1540 are intended for use as freewheeling/clamping diodes and rectifiers in a variety of switching power supplies and other power switching applications. Their low stored charge and hyperfast soft recovery minimize ringing
and electrical noise in many power switching circuits reducing power loss in the switching transistors.

Formerly developmental type TA49061.
