RHRD440, RHRD460, RHRD440S, RHRD460S Data Sheet January 2000 File Number 3613.5 4A, 400V - 600V Hyperfast Diodes Features The RHRD440, RHRD460, RHRD440S and RHRD460S are hyperfast diodes with soft recovery characteristics (trr < 30ns). They have half the recovery time of ultrafast diodes and are of silicon nitride passivated ion-implanted epitaxial planar construction. * Hyperfast with Soft Recovery . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . <30ns These devices 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. * Planar Construction Applications Formerly developmental type TA49055. * General Purpose Ordering Information Packaging PART NUMBER PACKAGE * Operating Temperature. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .175oC * Reverse Voltage Up to . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .600V * Avalanche Energy Rated * Switching Power Supplies * Power Switching Circuits JEDEC STYLE TO-251 BRAND RHRD440 TO-251 RHR440 RHRD460 TO-251 RHR460 RHRD440S TO-252 RHR440 RHRD460S TO-252 RHR460 ANODE CATHODE CATHODE (FLANGE) NOTE: When ordering, use the entire part number.
