Toshiba releases ten 1200V SiC Schottky barrier diodes
Toshiba Electronics Europe has widened its SiC diode portfolio with ten new 1200V Schottky barrier diodes (SBDs).
The TRSxxx120Hx series, comprising five products housed in TO-247-2L packages and five in TO-247 packages, helps designers improve the efficiency of industrial equipment, including photovoltaic (PV) inverters, electric vehicle (EV) charging stations, and switching power supplies.
By implementing an enhanced junction barrier Schottky (JBS) structure, the TRSxxx120Hx series allows a very low forward voltage (VF) of just 1.27V (typ), according to Toshiba. The merged PiN-Schottky incorporated into a JBS structure reduces diode losses under high current conditions.
The TRS40N120H of the new series accepts a forward DC current (IF(DC)) of 40A (max) and a non-repetitive peak forward surge current (IFSM) of 270A (max), with the maximum case temperature (TC) of all devices being +175°C.
Combined with the lower capacitive charge and leakage current, the products help improve system efficiency and simplify thermal design. For instance, at a reverse voltage (VR) of 1200V, the TRS20H120H diode housed in the TO-247-2L package provides a total capacitive charge (QC) of 109nC and reverse current (IR) of 2µA.
Secure Your Hydrogen Supply
A study supply of high-purity hydrogen is critical to semiconductor fabrication. Supply chain interruptions are challenging manufacturers, leading to production slowdowns and stoppages. On-site hydrogen generation offers a scalable alternative for new and existing fabs, freeing the operator from dependence on delivered gas.Plant managers understand the critical role that hydrogen plays in semiconductor fabrication. That important job includes crystal growth, carrier gas, wafer annealing, and in the emerging Extreme UV Lithography (EUV) that will enable new generations of devices. As the vast need for semiconductors grows across all sectors of world economies, so does the need for high-purity hydrogen.
