April 23, 2000 by Jeff Shepard

International Rectifier (El Segundo, CA) announced an offer on its new MUR Series of expitaxial diodes with reverse-recovery times of 25ns. The diodes are available in single- and center-tapped dual configurations and are designed for switch-mode power supply applications.

"With breakdown-voltage ratings of 200V, our new MUR fast-recovery diodes are particularly appropriate for 24V/48V switch-mode power supply systems; one of the fastest-growing product segments in the power-supply market," said Steve Ahn, marketing director for input/output products.

Expansion of the product series is ongoing with 400V devices for 48V output rectification and 600V devices for power-factor correction applications planned. Samples and production quantities of the diodes starts at $0.40 each for 10,000-part lots.
