Diode Arrays Procurement Notes

Verify the manufacturer designation as Littelfuse, which acquired IXYS. Confirm the specific suffix PB indicates the TO-220-3 plastic package variant. Check for End-of-Life notifications or Product Change Notices regarding this component series. Ensure compliance with RoHS and REACH requirements for your target market. Validate thermal management capabilities against the 150 W power dissipation rating in your final design.

Diode Arrays Selection Notes

Select this component when a common cathode arrangement is required for two separate circuits or a single bridge topology. The 150 V rating suits low-voltage DC bus applications. Consider the TO-220-3 package for adequate heat sinking in medium-power designs. Evaluate the 870 mV forward voltage against system efficiency targets. Ensure the 400 A surge current capability meets inrush requirements.
