BYV28-200-TAP

Overview

The BYV28-200-TAP is an ultra-fast avalanche sinterglass diode manufactured by Vishay General Semiconductor - Diodes Division. It features a 200 V repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM) and supports a maximum average forward current of 3.5 A. The device exhibits a typical reverse recovery time of 30 ns and a maximum forward voltage of 1.1 V at 5 A. Packaged in the SOD-64 through-hole format, it operates within a junction temperature range of -55 °C to +175 °C.

Feature Summary

• Controlled avalanche characteristic for robust operation
• Ultra-fast recovery time with low switching losses
• Glass passivated junction ensuring hermetic sealing

Applications

• Very fast rectification in switch mode power supplies
• High frequency rectifier circuits
• Free-wheeling diode applications

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering code matches the required packaging configuration. Confirm that the component meets all necessary automotive qualification standards if deployed in vehicle electronics. Validate thermal resistance parameters against the specific lead length and printed circuit board spacing used in the final assembly design.

Selection Notes

Select this component when high-speed switching and avalanche ruggedness are required in a through-hole package. Ensure the operating junction temperature remains within the specified limits to maintain performance. Verify that the peak non-repetitive reverse voltage requirements do not exceed the device's rated surge capability.

Part Context

This part belongs to the BYV28 series of ultra-fast avalanche sinterglass diodes. The series includes variants with different reverse voltage ratings, such as 50 V, 100 V, and 150 V, while maintaining identical current handling and package specifications. The TAP suffix indicates the specific ammopack packaging format.
