FST160200

Diode Arrays Overview

The GeneSiC Semiconductor FST160200 is a silicon power Schottky diode module rated for a repetitive peak reverse voltage of 200 V and an average forward current of 160 A. It features a maximum instantaneous forward voltage of 0.92 V at 80 A and a thermal resistance of 0.50 °C/W per leg. The device supports a peak forward surge current of 1000 A and operates within a junction temperature range of -55 to 150 °C.

Diode Arrays Feature Summary

• High surge capability with robust peak forward current handling
• Electrically isolated to the mounting plate for safe chassis integration
• Not sensitive to electrostatic discharge during handling

Diode Arrays Applications

• High-current DC-DC converter modules
• Power supply freewheeling circuits
• Industrial motor drive rectification

Diode Arrays Procurement Notes

Verify the specific part marking against the datasheet terminal configuration diagram to ensure correct pinout alignment. Confirm that the thermal interface material matches the specified thermal resistance requirements for your heatsink design. Ensure the mounting torque adheres to mechanical specifications to maintain electrical isolation integrity.

Diode Arrays Selection Notes

Select this component when a single-phase, high-current Schottky solution is required in a TO-249AB package. The 200 V rating suits low-voltage, high-amperage applications where low forward voltage drop is critical for efficiency. Consider the 0.50 °C/W thermal resistance for heatsink sizing calculations under continuous load conditions.

Diode Arrays Part Context

This module belongs to the FST160 series, which includes variants ranging from 150 V to 200 V reverse voltage ratings. All members share the same 160 A current capacity and TO-249AB physical footprint, allowing for design flexibility while maintaining consistent mechanical and thermal integration parameters across the product line.

Diode Arrays Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other FST160 series parts such as FST160150 or FST160100 if lower voltage ratings are acceptable. Verify that any replacement maintains the same TO-249AB package dimensions and terminal configuration to ensure compatibility with existing PCB layouts and mounting hardware.
