FES8JT-13HE3/45

Diode Arrays Overview

The FES8JT-13HE3/45 is a silicon junction fast recovery rectifier manufactured by Vishay General Semiconductor - Diodes Division. It features an 8A maximum continuous forward current and a 600V peak reverse repetitive voltage rating. The device utilizes a TO-220AC through-hole package with two pins. Key electrical characteristics include a maximum forward voltage drop of 1.7V at 8A, a peak non-repetitive forward surge current of 125A, and a peak reverse recovery time of 35ns.

Diode Arrays Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix '13' against official Vishay documentation to confirm packaging details, as standard listings often use '/45'. Confirm RoHS compliance status via the manufacturer's datasheet. Ensure the TO-220AC package dimensions match your thermal management requirements. Cross-reference the 600V rating with circuit design specifications.

Diode Arrays Selection Notes

Select this component for designs requiring 8A continuous current and 600V blocking capability. The 35ns reverse recovery time makes it suitable for high-frequency operation. Compare the 1.7V forward voltage drop against efficiency targets. Verify that the TO-220AC package fits the available board space and mounting constraints.

Diode Arrays Part Context

This part belongs to the Vishay FESx series of ultra-fast plastic rectifiers. The series includes variants with different voltage ratings (e.g., 50V to 600V) and current ratings (8A or 16A). These devices are engineered for automotive and industrial applications, meeting AEC-Q101 standards for ruggedness.

Diode Arrays Replacement Considerations

Officially documented substitutes within the same family include FES8HTHE3/45 (500V), FES8DTHE3/45 (200V), and FES8CTHE3/45 (150V). When replacing, ensure the new part meets or exceeds the 600V reverse voltage requirement and maintains similar thermal performance.
