Procurement Notes

Verify the end-of-life status before design finalization, as this component is marked as discontinued. Confirm that the through-hole mounting style and TO-247AC package dimensions match your existing board layout requirements. Ensure that the 650 V rating and 17 A current capacity remain sufficient for your system's operational margins under all expected thermal conditions.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a center tap topology is required for silicon carbide rectification. The dual anode common cathode arrangement simplifies wiring in specific converter designs. Consider the 150 C maximum junction temperature for high-thermal environments where standard silicon devices may fail. Verify that the 110 A surge current rating meets transient load requirements.

Part Context

This part belongs to the silicon carbide Schottky diode category from Microchip Technology. It is designed for high-voltage power conversion applications requiring superior thermal performance compared to traditional silicon rectifiers. The center tap configuration distinguishes it from standard single or bridge rectifier arrangements.

Replacement Considerations

Public confirmed substitute part numbers are not available in the provided documentation. Due to the discontinued status, alternative sourcing requires verification of pin compatibility and electrical parameter equivalence with other silicon carbide center tap rectifiers.
