Toshiba Releases 3rd Generation 650V SiC Schottky Barrier Diodes that Contribute to More Efficient Industrial Equipment

2023-07-13 | Return

KAWASAKI, Japan—Toshiba Electronic Devices & Storage Corporation (“Toshiba”) has launched the "TRSxxx65H series,” the company’s third and latest[1] generation of silicon carbide (SiC)

Schottky barrier diodes (SBDs) for industrial equipment. Volume shipments of the first 12 products, all 650V, start today, with seven products housed in TO-220-2L packages and five in DFN8×8 packages.

The new products use a new metal in a third generation SiC SBD chip that optimizes the junction barrier Schottky (JBS) structure[2] of the second generation products. They achieve industry-leading[3] low forward voltage of 1.2V (Typ.), 17% lower than the 1.45V (Typ.) of the previous generation. They also improve the trade-offs between forward voltage and total capacitive charge, and between forward voltage and reverse current, which reduces power dissipation and contributes to high efficiency of equipment.

Notes:
[1] As of July 2023.
[2] JBS structure lowers the electric field at the Schottky interface and reduces leakage current.

Applications

>Switching power supplies
>EV charging stations
>Photovoltaic inverters

Features

>Industry-leading[3] low forward voltage: VF＝1.2V (Typ.) (IF=IF(DC))
>Low reverse current:
TRS6E65H IR＝1.1μA (Typ.) (VR=650V)
>Low total capacitive charge:
TRS6E65H QC＝17nC (Typ.) (VR=400V, f=1MHz)
