New FRED Pt Gen 5 600 V Hyperfast and Ultrafast VS-E5TH1506-M3 Rectifiers Offer Low Recovery Losses in Automotive and Industrial Applications
Vishay Intertechnology’s new FRED Pt Gen 5 600 V Hyperfast and ultrafast rectifier, VS-E5TH1506-M3 offers 30% lower reverse recovery losses than the closest competing rectifiers and 48% lower than previous-generation FRED Pt solutions while maintaining low conduction and switching losses. This key feature of the devices improves light- and full-load efficiency in high-speed LLC output rectification stages for EV / HEV battery charging stations and high-frequency stages for UPS applications.
The 15 A 30 A, 60 A, and 75 A devices increase the efficiency of AC/DC and DC/DC converters in automotive and industrial applications. These rectifiers are available in TO-220AC and TO-247AD packages and X-type Hyperfast and H-type Ultrafast speed classes. X-type devices offer the advantage of lower QRR, while H-type rectifiers feature lower forward voltage. RoHS-compliant and halogen-free, the components offer high-temperature operation to +175 °C. Samples and production quantities of the new FRED Pt rectifiers are available from the company website with lead times of 12 weeks.
