AK 06

Overview

The AK06 is a Schottky diode manufactured by Sanken Electric USA Inc. It features a peak repetitive reverse voltage (VRSM) of 60 V and an average forward current (IF(AV)) rating of 0.7 A. The typical forward voltage drop (VF) is 0.517 V at IF = 0.7 A, with a maximum of 0.62 V. Reverse leakage current (IR) is limited to 1.0 mA at VRM, increasing to 30 mA at TJ = 150 °C. The device operates within a junction temperature range of -40 °C to 150 °C and utilizes an axial package.

Feature Summary

• Schottky barrier construction for high-speed switching applications
• Low forward voltage drop characteristics to improve power supply efficiency
• Lead-free bare leads compliant with RoHS standards

Applications

• DC-DC Converters
• Adapters
