Schottky diode boasts high temperature capability
Continuing its support for Semtech’s high reliability discrete products, Astute Electronics has introduced the HR512031BA23C down-hole tailored SiC Schottky diode for the oil and gas industries. The device surpasses 16 of 18 temperature ranges listed in the top three standards and has a junction temperature between -55 and -220 degC.
As well as the high temperature capability, features include low switching losses, small package outline and very low reverse recovery time.
“The HR512031BA23C has vibration tough terminations suitable for down-hole applications,” said Mike Blee, Marketing Manager at Astute Electronics. “This part leverages Semtech’s 50-year expertise of producing non-cavity, hermetically sealed, double plug constructed products already used in space, defence and industrial applications. It combines lightning fast switching speeds at higher voltages and currents, resulting in greater power and signal integrity.”
Maximum DC forward current (IF) is 10A, DC blocking voltage (VR) is 1.2kV, reverse current (IR) is 30µA typical at +25˚C and 60µA at +175˚C, forward voltage (VF) is less than 1.5V typical at an IF of 10A and +25˚C and 2.5V at +175˚C, and reverse recovery time (Trr) is less than 15ns.
Also available in Semtech’s range are diodes, TVS diodes, Zener diodes, diode arrays in the form of modules, and ISOPAC products.
