10ETF02S

Overview

The Vishay 10ETF02S is a fast soft recovery rectifier diode rated for 10 A average forward current and 200 V maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage. It utilizes a D2PAK (SMD-220) surface-mount package with a common cathode base configuration. Key electrical characteristics include a maximum forward voltage drop of 1.2 V at 10 A and 25 °C, and a reverse recovery time of 50 ns under specified test conditions. The device operates within a junction temperature range of -40 to 150 °C and features glass passivation for stability.

Feature Summary

• Optimized for combined short reverse recovery time and low forward voltage drop
• Glass passivation ensures stable operation in severe temperature and power cycling conditions
• Designed and qualified for industrial level applications

Applications

• Output rectification and freewheeling in inverters, choppers and converters
• Input rectifications where severe restrictions on conducted EMI should be met

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's documentation to confirm packaging orientation and lead-free status. The standard production version arrives in tubes, while TRR and TRL suffixes indicate tape and reel options with right or left orientation respectively. Confirm that the PbF designation is present if lead-free compliance is required for the assembly process.

Selection Notes

Select this component when circuit requirements demand a balance between low conduction losses and reduced switching noise. The 200 V rating suits lower voltage DC-DC conversion stages. Ensure thermal management accounts for the 1.5 °C/W junction-to-case resistance. Verify that the PCB footprint matches the D2PAK outline dimensions provided in the mechanical drawings.

Part Context

This part belongs to the 10ETF..S Soft Recovery Series from Vishay High Power Products. The series includes variants with different voltage ratings, specifically 400 V (10ETF04S) and 600 V (10ETF06S), all sharing the same 10 A current rating and D2PAK package style. The 'E' indicates a single diode configuration, while 'F' denotes the fast soft recovery silicon type.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same series include the 10ETF04S for 400 V applications and the 10ETF06S for 600 V applications, provided the higher voltage ratings do not compromise cost or space constraints. Cross-brand replacements require matching the 10 A current, 200 V blocking capability, D2PAK package, and similar reverse recovery time specifications.
