International Rectifier Adds 70 New Schottky Diodes

October 08, 2000 by Jeff Shepard

International Rectifier (El Segundo, CA) is adding 70 new Schottky diodes to their High-Reliability Components Group offering. The company claims that the new diodes offer improved performance, broader rating ranges and greater package selection than before. The new line-up includes devices screened for TX, TXV and S-level, space-qualified applications, as well as 100V and 150V rated devices. The new hermetic Schottky rectifiers have 30V, 45V, 60V, 100V and 150V reverse breakdown voltage ratings, with current ratings from 15A to 120A.

The devices come in single- and common-cathode configurations. Six package styles, SMD-0.5, SMD-1, TO-257, TO-254, hermetic D-2 and hermetic D-3, will help circuit designers maximize layout for optimum power density. The two-lead TO-257 and TO-254 packages are offered in ceramic or glass seals. Several of the new products are improved versions of existing devices in smaller packages. Pricing for the new Schottky diodes begins at $42 each in 500-unit quantities.
