600-V Hyperfast tandem rectifier IC from Vishay

Vishay has introduced the 8S2TH06I-M, a new 600-V FRED Pt Hyperfast tandem rectifier that reduce losses in high-efficiency continuous current mode (CCM) power factor correction (PFC) applications with its fast reverse recovery time, low forward voltage drop of 2.1 V, and low package thermal resistance. The suggested applications for 8S2TH06I-M are desktop PCs, server and telecom power supplies, UPS systems, wide screen plasma display and LCD power supplies, industrial power supplies, and solar inverters.

Key features are,

Hyperfast reverse recovery time of 11 ns
Low forward voltage drop rating of 2.1 V at 8 A
Low leakage current
175 °C operating junction temperature
Reverse recovery charge is 7 nC at 25 °C and 35 nC at 125 °C
Compliant to RoHS directive 2002/95/EC
Halogen-free according to IEC 61249-2-21 definition
Designed and qualified for industrial level
