VS-15ETL06STRLPBF

Single Diodes Overview

The VS-15ETL06STRLPBF is a fast recovery rectifier from Vishay’s FRED Pt® series, rated at 600 V reverse voltage and 15 A average forward current. It utilizes the Field Effect Diode Platinum technology to achieve low switching losses and high reliability. The device features a maximum forward voltage of 990 mV at 15 A and a typical reverse recovery time of 60 ns. Designed for surface-mount applications, it is housed in a TO-263AB (D2PAK) package with a leadless thermal pad for efficient heat dissipation. The component operates within a junction temperature range of -65°C to +175°C.

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix against official datasheets to confirm package type and tape-and-reel specifications. Ensure compatibility with RoHS directives if required by your manufacturing standards. Cross-reference the manufacturer part number with authorized distributors to avoid counterfeit components. Confirm that the surface-mount footprint matches your PCB layout requirements before finalizing procurement.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when high-speed switching and low reverse recovery charge are critical. The TO-263AB package offers superior thermal management compared to standard DPAK variants. Consider the 600 V rating for systems requiring robust voltage margins. Evaluate the 15 A current capacity against peak load requirements to ensure adequate derating for long-term reliability.

Single Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to Vishay’s FRED Pt® family of fast recovery rectifiers, designed for efficiency in power conversion. The series is known for optimizing the trade-off between forward voltage drop and reverse recovery time. The VS-15ETL06STRLPBF specifically targets surface-mount designs needing high current density and thermal stability in compact form factors.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

Check for direct substitutes such as VS-15ETL06-M3 or VS-15ETL06STRRPBF, ensuring identical pinout and electrical ratings. Verify that any replacement maintains the same FRED Pt® technology and package dimensions to fit existing footprints without redesign.
