MSRTA60080A

Overview

The MSRTA60080A is a silicon standard recovery diode array from GeneSiC Semiconductor, configured as one pair of common cathodes. It features a heavy three tower package designed for base mounting in high-power applications. The device supports a repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM) of 800 V and a continuous forward current (IF) of 600 A per diode. Electrical characteristics include a maximum forward voltage (VF) of 1.2 V at 600 A and a reverse leakage current (IR) of 25 µA at 600 V and 25 °C. The junction-to-case thermal resistance is 0.12 °C/W, with an operating temperature range of -40 °C to 175 °C.
