STEALTH II Rectifier
TM
FFP08S60SN
Features
High Speed Switching, trr < 25ns @ IF = 8A
High Reverse Voltage and High Reliability
RoHS compliant
Applications
General Purpose
Switching Mode Power Supply
Boost Diode in continuous mode power factor corrections
Power switching circuits
8A, 600V STEALTHTM II Rectifier
The FFP08S60SN is STEALTHTM II rectifier with soft recovery
characteristics. It is silicon nitride passivated ion-implanted epi-
taxial planar construction.
This device is intended for use as freewheeling o f boost diode in
switching power supplies and other power swithching applica-
tions. Their low stored charge and hyperfast soft recovery mini-
mize ringing and electrical noise in many power switching circuits
reducing power loss in the switching transistors.
