FR607B-G

Single Diodes Overview

The FR607B-G is a fast recovery rectifier manufactured by Comchip Technology, designed for through-hole mounting in the R-6 package. It features a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 1000 V and an average forward rectified current of 6 A. The device exhibits a typical forward voltage drop of 1.3 V at rated current and a maximum reverse leakage current of 10 µA. Its fast recovery time is specified at 500 ns, supporting high-frequency switching applications. The component operates within a junction temperature range of -55 °C to +150 °C and can withstand a maximum surge current of 200 A.

• High current handling capacity of 6 A average forward current
• Wide thermal operating range extending to +150 °C junction temperature

Single Diodes Applications

• High voltage DC power supply circuits
• Inverter and converter freewheeling diodes
• General purpose rectification in industrial equipment
• Switching mode power supply (SMPS) output stages

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'B' against the manufacturer's datasheet to confirm if it denotes a specific binning or testing parameter distinct from the standard FR607-G variant. Ensure the procurement documentation explicitly references Comchip Technology as the source to avoid counterfeit components. Confirm RoHS compliance status via the official product specification sheet prior to integration into lead-free assembly processes.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when circuit requirements demand a 1000 V reverse voltage rating combined with a 6 A continuous current capacity. The 500 ns recovery time makes it suitable for frequencies where standard rectifiers would exhibit excessive losses. Compare the 1.3 V forward voltage drop against system efficiency targets. Ensure the R-6 package dimensions fit the available PCB real estate and that the thermal management strategy supports the +150 °C maximum junction temperature limit.

Single Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the FR6xx series of fast recovery rectifiers from Comchip Technology. These devices are silicon planar epitaxial diodes optimized for general-purpose rectification and high-speed switching. The series provides a balance of high voltage endurance and moderate current handling, commonly used in consumer electronics and industrial power conversion systems requiring reliable performance under high stress conditions.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

FR607-G: Verify if the 'B' suffix indicates a specific electrical bin or packaging difference; otherwise, it may be functionally equivalent.
