FEATURES:
Optimized for 12V and 15V auxiliary output power supplies. The
EPION series has been designed to provide low forward voltage
drops and small delta shifts in reverse recovery time at high
temperature minimizing switching loses.
• Radiation Tolerant
• Ultra Fast Recovery Time
• Low Forward Voltage
• Low Reverse Leakage
• Hermetically Sealed Package
• High Reverse Blocking Voltage
• 175oC Operating TJ
