FCF06A40

Diode Arrays Overview

The FCF06A40 is a fast recovery diode manufactured by KYOCERA AVX, designed for general-purpose rectification applications. It features a repetitive peak reverse voltage of 400 V and an average rectified output current rating of 6 A. The component utilizes a TO-220 Full-Mold package for through-hole mounting. Key electrical specifications include a surge forward current capacity of 80 A and a peak reverse current of 30 μA. This device is engineered to provide reliable performance in power conversion circuits requiring rapid switching characteristics.

Diode Arrays Feature Summary

• Fast recovery time characteristics suitable for high-frequency switching applications
• Robust TO-220 Full-Mold construction for effective thermal management
• High surge current capability to withstand transient load conditions

Diode Arrays Applications

• General-purpose rectification in power supplies
• Free-wheeling diodes in inductive load circuits
• DC-DC converter output stages

Diode Arrays Procurement Notes

Verify the specific manufacturer designation as sources may list Kyocera Kinseki Corporation or KYOCERA AVX. Confirm RoHS compliance status and lifecycle stage, as some distributors indicate obsolete status. Ensure the TO-220 Full-Mold package matches the required footprint and lead configuration for the target PCB assembly before finalizing procurement.

Diode Arrays Selection Notes

Select this component when a 400 V reverse voltage rating and 6 A continuous current are required. The fast recovery characteristic makes it appropriate for applications where standard recovery times cause excessive switching losses. Consider the thermal resistance of the TO-220 package and ensure adequate heatsinking if operating near maximum current limits.

Diode Arrays Part Context

This part belongs to the family of fast recovery diodes offered by KYOCERA AVX and its subsidiary Kyocera Kinseki. These components are distinct from standard rectifiers due to their optimized junction design for reduced reverse recovery time. The product line supports various industrial and consumer electronics power management needs.
