Vishay Intertechnology Standard Rectifiers Deliver High Current Ratings to 12 A in New Power DFN Series
Vishay Intertechnology has introduced a new series of surface-mount standard rectifiers, marking an industry first for devices in the low-profile DFN6546A package with wettable flanks. These rectifiers, including the 5 A SE50N6x, 8 A SE80N6x, 10 A SE100N6x, and 12 A SE120N6x series, are designed to provide space-saving solutions for critical power management functions.
Manufactured by Vishay General Semiconductor, these rectifiers are available with reverse voltages of 200 V, 400 V, and 600 V, with AEC-Q101-qualified versions offered for demanding environments. The innovative DFN6546A package, part of Vishay’s new Power DFN family, features a compact 6.5 mm by 4.6 mm footprint and an extremely low typical height of 0.88 mm, optimizing PCB space utilization.
The advanced construction of these devices, featuring higher copper content and larger chip sizes, results in improved thermal performance, significantly higher current ratings, and enhanced forward surge current capability. Compared to solutions in the SMPC (TO-277A) package with the same footprint, Vishay’s new rectifiers offer a 10% lower profile, 20% higher current ratings, and an impressive 82% higher forward surge capability, making them a robust choice for various applications.
