Vishay HFA15TB60
HFA15TB60 is a state of the art ultrafast recovery diode. With basic ratings of 600 V and 15 A continuous current, the HFA15TB60 is especially well suited for use as the companion diode for IGBTs and MOSFETs. The HEXFRED features combine to offer designers a rectifier with lower noise and significantly lower switching losses in both the diode and the switching transistor.FEATURES

DESCRIPTION
Employing the latest in epitaxial construction and advanced processing techniques it features a superb combination of characteristics which result in performance which is unsurpassed by any rectifier previously available. In addition to ultrafast recovery time, the HEXFRED® product line features extremely low values of peak recovery current (IRRM) and does not exhibit any tendency to “snap-off” during the tb portion of recovery. These HEXFRED advantages can help to significantly reduce snubbing, component count and heatsink sizes.
