The RHRP1540, RHRP1560 is a hyperfast diode with softrecovery characteristics. It has the half recovery time ofultrafast diodes and is silicon nitride passivatedionimplanted epitaxial planar construction. These devicesare intended to be used as freewheeling/ clampingdiodes and diodes in a variety of switching powersupplies and other power switching applications. Theirlow stored charge and hyperfast soft recovery minimizeringing and electrical noise in many power switchingcircuits reducing power loss in the switching transistors.
