Diode Arrays Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'C0G' against official manufacturer documentation to confirm exact packaging and qualification status. Standard datasheets may list suffixes like 'G' for halogen-free or 'H' for automotive qualification; ensure the requested variant matches the required RoHS compliance and mechanical specifications before ordering.

Diode Arrays Selection Notes

Select this component for designs requiring a 16 A current rating with a 100 V blocking voltage. The TO-220AB package facilitates heat dissipation for high-current applications. Ensure the circuit design accounts for the 50 ns reverse recovery time to optimize efficiency in high-frequency switching environments compared to standard rectifiers.

Diode Arrays Part Context

This part belongs to the HER160x series of glass passivated high efficient rectifiers from Taiwan Semiconductor. The series covers voltage ratings from 50 V to 1000 V with a consistent 16 A current rating. These devices are designed to replace older standards like MIL-S-19500/228 while offering improved performance metrics such as lower forward voltage and faster recovery times.

Diode Arrays Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other manufacturers' 16 A, 100 V dual common cathode fast recovery rectifiers in TO-220AB packages. Verify pinout compatibility and thermal resistance values when substituting with equivalent parts from other suppliers.
