RHRP15120
November 2013
Data Sheet
15 A, 1200 V, Hyperfast Diode
Features
• Hyperfast Recovery trr = 75 ns (@ IF = 15 A)
The RHRP15120 is a hyperfast diode with soft recovery
characteristics. It has the half recovery time of ultrafast
diodes and is silicon nitride passivated ionimplanted
epitaxial planar construction. These devices are
intended to be used as freewheeling/ clamping diodes
and diodes in a variety of switching power supplies and
other power switching applications. Their low stored
charge and hyperfast soft recovery minimize ringing and
electrical noise in many power switching circuits
reducing power loss in the switching transistors.
• Max Forward Voltage, VF = 3.2 V (@ TC = 25°C)
• 1200 V Reverse Voltage and High Reliability
• Avalanche Energy Rated
• RoHS Compliant
Applications
• Switching Power Supplies
• Power Switching Circuits
• General Purpose

DEFINITIONS
VF = Instantaneous forward voltage (pw = 300 µs, D = 2%).
IR = Instantaneous reverse current.
trr = Reverse recovery time (See Figure 9), summation of ta + tb.
ta = Time to reach peak reverse current (See Figure 9).
tb = Time from peak IRM to projected zero crossing of IRM based on a straight line from peak IRM through 25% of IRM (See Figure 9).
Qrr = Reverse recovery charge.
CJ = Junction capacitance.
RθJC = Thermal resistance junction to case.
pw = pulse width.
