Overview
The STPSC6H065DI is an ultrahigh performance power Schottky diode manufactured by STMicroelectronics. This 6 A, 650 V SiC diode is built using a silicon carbide substrate, which allows for a wide band gap material and a Schottky diode structure with a 650 V rating. The Schottky construction eliminates reverse recovery charge and minimizes ringing patterns and capacitive turn-off behavior, making it independent of temperature. This diode is particularly suited for use in Power Factor Correction (PFC) applications and enhances performance in hard switching conditions due to its high forward surge capability and robustness during transient phases.
