FST16060

Diode Arrays Overview

The GeneSiC Semiconductor FST16060 is a silicon power Schottky diode module featuring a TO-249AB package. It provides a repetitive peak reverse voltage of 60 V and an average forward current rating of 160 A per package. The maximum instantaneous forward voltage is 0.80 V, with a thermal resistance from junction to case of 0.50 °C/W per leg. Operating temperatures range from -55 °C to +150 °C.

Diode Arrays Feature Summary

• High surge capability for robust transient handling
• Electrically isolated to plate for simplified mounting
• Not sensitive to electrostatic discharge

Diode Arrays Applications

• DC/DC converters
• Free-wheeling rectification in motor drives
• Power supply output rectification

Diode Arrays Procurement Notes

Verify the specific manufacturer source when sourcing this component, as GeneSiC Semiconductor assets have been acquired by Navitas Semiconductor. Confirm that the datasheet specifications align with the actual production batch, as manufacturing origins may vary between legacy GeneSiC and current Navitas production lines.

Diode Arrays Selection Notes

Select the FST16060 for applications requiring low forward voltage drop and high current capacity within a 60 V blocking limit. Ensure the thermal management design accommodates the 0.50 °C/W junction-to-case resistance to maintain safe operating temperatures under continuous load conditions.

Diode Arrays Part Context

This component belongs to the FST160 series of silicon power Schottky diodes, which includes variants rated from 45 V to 100 V. All models in this series share the same TO-249AB package form factor and 160 A current rating, differing primarily in their reverse voltage capabilities.

Diode Arrays Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other FST160 series parts such as FST16045 or FST16080, provided the voltage ratings match the circuit requirements.
