60EPU02PbF
60APU02PbF
Ultrafast Soft Recovery Diode
Features
• Ultrafast Recovery
• 175°C Operating Junction Temperature trr = 35ns
• Lead-Free ("PbF" suffix)
IF(AV) = 60Amp
Benefits
• Reduced RFI and EMI VR = 200V
• Higher Frequency Operation
• Reduced Snubbing
• Reduced Parts Count

Description/ Applications
These diodes are optimized to reduce losses and EMI/ RFI in high frequency power conditioning systems.
The softness of the recovery eliminates the need for a snubber in most applications. These devices are ideally suited
for HF welding, power converters and other applications where switching losses are not significant portion of the total
losses.
