SCS304APC9

Single Diodes Overview

The SCS304APC9 is a silicon carbide Schottky barrier diode manufactured by ROHM Semiconductor. It features a 650 V repetitive reverse voltage rating and a continuous forward current of 4 A. The device is housed in a TO-220ACP through-hole package with a maximum power dissipation of 22 W at a junction temperature up to +175°C. Key electrical parameters include a forward voltage of 1.5 V, a surge forward current capability of 27 A, and a low reverse leakage current of 20 µA.

Single Diodes Feature Summary

• Utilizes silicon carbide material for high-temperature operation and reduced thermal resistance.
• Provides fast switching characteristics with short recovery time and minimal temperature dependence.
• Offers high surge current capability to withstand transient load conditions.

Single Diodes Applications

• Industrial AC-DC converter auxiliary power supplies
• High-efficiency switched-mode power supplies (SMPS)
• Isolated fly-back converter circuits

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'C9' against official ROHM documentation to confirm the exact tube packaging configuration and RoHS compliance status. Ensure the component matches the TO-220ACP leaded package rather than surface-mount variants. Cross-reference the datasheet revision date to validate parameter accuracy before integration into production designs.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring robust high-voltage rectification with superior thermal performance compared to silicon alternatives. The 650V rating suits standard industrial input voltages. Consider the TO-220ACP package for ease of heatsinking in medium-power designs where surface-mount options are insufficient for thermal management requirements.

Single Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the SCS3x series of silicon carbide Schottky diodes from ROHM. The series is designed to replace traditional silicon diodes in high-frequency and high-temperature environments. The SCS304APC9 specifically targets the 4A current class within the 650V voltage range, offering a balance between conduction losses and switching speed for general-purpose power conversion.
