HFA16PB120 Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The HFA16PB120 is an ultrafast soft recovery diode from Vishay Dale's HEXFRED series. It features a repetitive peak reverse voltage rating of 1200 V and a continuous forward current of 16 A at a case temperature of 100°C. The diode offers a low forward voltage drop of typically 2.5 V at 16 A and 25°C, minimizing conduction losses. Its ultrafast recovery characteristics include a typical reverse recovery time of 30 ns and a very low reverse recovery charge of 260 nC, reducing switching losses in high-frequency applications.

 

Designed for use as a companion diode for IGBTs and MOSFETs, the HFA16PB120 exhibits extremely soft recovery behavior with no tendency to snap-off, which reduces EMI and RFI. It is suitable for power supplies, inverters, motor drives, and other power conversion systems requiring high speed and efficiency. The device is rated for a junction temperature range of -55°C to 150°C and has a maximum power dissipation of 151 W at 25°C case temperature.

 

The HFA16PB120 is packaged in the TO-247AC modified through-hole package, providing robust thermal performance and easy mounting on heatsinks. The package is lead-free and RoHS compliant, with an MSL rating of 1 (unlimited).
