RF1601T2DNZC9

Overview

The RF1601T2DNZC9 is a super-fast recovery diode manufactured by Rohm Semiconductor, designed for high-speed switching applications. It features a single configuration housed in a TO-220FN (3-pin) leaded package. The device supports a maximum repetitive reverse voltage of 200V and an average rectified forward current of 16A. Key electrical characteristics include a maximum forward voltage of 0.98V at 8A and a maximum reverse current of 0.01mA at 200V. The component exhibits a maximum reverse recovery time of 30ns, measured at 500mA forward current. It operates within a junction temperature range up to 150°C and a storage temperature range from -55°C to 150°C.

Feature Summary

• Super-fast recovery performance with low switching loss
• Low forward voltage drop for improved efficiency
• High thermal stability suitable for demanding environments

Applications

• General-purpose rectification in power supplies
• Freewheeling diodes in DC-DC converters
• Snubber circuits in high-frequency inverters

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix C9 against official Rohm documentation to confirm pinout and packaging details. Confirm RoHS compliance status as per the latest datasheet revision. Ensure the procurement channel is authorized to guarantee authenticity, as counterfeit components may exhibit degraded reverse recovery characteristics or incorrect forward voltage drops.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 16A current rating and 200V blocking voltage are required in a through-hole TO-220FN package. Consider the 30ns reverse recovery time for high-frequency operation where switching losses must be minimized. Evaluate thermal management requirements based on the 150°C junction temperature limit and the specific ambient conditions of the target application.

Part Context

This part belongs to Rohm's series of super-fast recovery diodes, which are engineered for efficiency in power conversion systems. The TO-220FN package provides robust mechanical mounting and effective heat dissipation compared to standard TO-220 variants. These diodes are commonly used in industrial and consumer electronics where reliability and fast switching speeds are critical for system performance.

Replacement Considerations

Check for direct substitutes with identical 16A/200V ratings and similar trr specifications. Verify that any replacement maintains the same TO-220FN footprint and pin configuration to ensure compatibility with existing PCB layouts without redesign.
