SCRs - Modules datasheet and documents for VS-VSKN56/16
SCRs - Modules Overview
The VS-VSKN56/16 is a rectifier module from the Vishay VSK series, rated for 1600V DC reverse voltage and 30A average rectified current per diode. It utilizes the ADD-A-PAK(3) package for base mounting. The device features standard recovery speed characteristics exceeding 500ns with currents above 200mA. Operating junction temperature ranges from -40°C to 150°C, with a maximum reverse leakage current of 10mA at 1600V.
SCRs - Modules Feature Summary
- High-voltage capability up to 1600V for robust power handling
- Standard recovery speed suitable for general-purpose applications
- Wide operating junction temperature range for thermal stability
SCRs - Modules Applications
- Industrial power supplies
- Inverter circuits
- Motor drive systems
SCRs - Modules Procurement Notes
Verify the specific datasheet revision and manufacturing origin before procurement. Confirm that the ADD-A-PAK(3) footprint matches the target PCB or heatsink design. Ensure compliance with RoHS3 standards if required by the end application. Cross-reference the manufacturer part number VS-VSKN56/16 with official Vishay documentation to confirm current production status and availability constraints.
SCRs - Modules Selection Notes
Select this component when a 1600V rating and 30A continuous current are required in a compact base-mount form factor. The standard recovery characteristic makes it appropriate for lower-frequency switching applications compared to ultra-fast variants. Consider the thermal management requirements associated with the ADD-A-PAK package and the specified junction temperature limits during circuit design.
SCRs - Modules Part Context
This module belongs to the VSK(C,D,E,J,N)56 series of diode arrays manufactured by Vishay General Semiconductor. These components are designed as single-pair common cathode configurations within the ADD-A-PAK family. The series provides standardized solutions for high-voltage rectification needs in industrial and power electronics environments.
SCRs - Modules Replacement Considerations
Compatible substitutes within the same series include VS-VSKC56/16, VS-VSKD56/16, and VS-VSKJ56/16. Verify pinout compatibility and exact electrical parameters against the original design specifications before substitution.
