BYQ28X-200,127

Diode Arrays Overview

The BYQ28X-200,127 is a dual ultrafast rugged rectifier diode manufactured by WeEn Semiconductors. It features a common cathode configuration housed in a TO-220AB package for through-hole mounting. The device supports a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 200 V and a continuous forward current of 25 A per element. Key electrical characteristics include an ultra-fast recovery time of 35 ns and a low forward voltage drop of 1.1 V at rated current. The component is designed to minimize conduction and switching losses in high-frequency applications.

Diode Arrays Feature Summary

• Dual common cathode configuration for efficient circuit design
• Ultra-fast recovery time reduces switching losses
• Low forward voltage drop enhances energy efficiency

• DC-DC converters

Diode Arrays Procurement Notes

Verify the manufacturer marking on the component body matches WeEn Semiconductors specifications. Confirm the suffix

Diode Arrays Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual common cathode arrangement is required in a single package to save board space. Ensure the operating voltage remains below the 200 V rating and thermal management accommodates the 25 A current capacity. Compare against single diode solutions if isolation between channels is necessary.

Diode Arrays Part Context

This part belongs to the BYQ series of ultrafast rectifiers from WeEn Semiconductors, formerly NXP Semiconductors. The series is characterized by rugged construction and fast switching capabilities. The TO-220AB package provides robust mechanical stability and heat dissipation suitable for medium-power industrial and consumer electronics applications.

Diode Arrays Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include the BYQ28X-200E and generic equivalents from other manufacturers offering identical 200 V / 25 A dual common cathode specifications with comparable 35 ns recovery times.
