operation
• Center tap TO-220 package
• Low forward voltage drop
• High frequency operation
• High purity, high temperature epoxy
encapsulation for enhanced mechanical strength and
moisture resistance
• Guard ring for enhanced ruggedness and long term
reliability

DESCRIPTION
This center tap Schottky rectifier has been optimized for low
reverse leakage at high temperature. The proprietary barrier
technology allows for reliable operation up to 150 °C junction
temperature. Typical applications are in switching power
supplies, converters, freewheeling diodes, and reverse
battery protection.
