Mouser Now Stocking Nexperia's Expanded Range of 650 V Silicon Carbide Schottky Diodes for Industrial Applications
September 30, 2024 – Mouser Electronics, Inc., the authorized global distributor with the newest electronic components and industrial automation products, is now shipping the PSC1665x silicon carbide (SiC) Schottky diodes, part of Nexperia's expanding portfolio of SiC devices.
The Nexperia PSC1665x SiC Schottky diodes, now at Mouser, are designed to address the challenges of demanding high-voltage applications, including industrial switched-mode power supplies, energy storage, battery-charging infrastructure, motor drives, uninterruptible power supplies as well as photovoltaic inverters for sustainable energy production. These devices are available in real-two-pin (R2P) DPAK TO-252-2 and TO-220-2 packaging for design flexibility.
The merged PiN Schottky (MPS) structure of these devices provides additional advantages over similar SiC diodes, including outstanding robustness against surge currents. This eliminates the need for additional protection circuitry, thereby significantly reducing system complexity and enabling hardware designers to achieve higher efficiency with smaller form factors in rugged high-power applications.
In addition, Nexperia's 'thin SiC' technology delivers a thinner substrate (one-third of its original thickness), which dramatically reduces the thermal resistance from the junction to the back-side metal. This results in lower operating temperature, higher reliability and device lifetime, higher surge current capability, and lower forward voltage drop.
