New SiC Schottky diode ideal for automotive applications

By Michelle Froese | June 12, 2024

Nexperia recently announced that its class-leading 650 V, 10 A silicon-carbide (SiC) Schottky diode is now automotive-qualified (PSC1065H-Q) and available in real-two-pin DPAK (TO-252-2) packaging. This means it’s suitable for various applications, including electric vehicles (EVs).

The SiC Schottky diode encapsulated in a Real-2-Pin R2P (TO-252-2) Surface-Mounted Device (SMD) power plastic package offers temperature-independent capacitive turn-off, zero recovery switching behavior combined with an outstanding figure-of-merit (QC x VF). The Merged PiN Schottky (MPS) diode improves the robustness expressed in a high IFSM.

The company is also offering industrial-grade devices with current ratings of 6  A, 16 A, and 20 A in TO-220-2, TO-247-2, and D2PAK-2 packaging to facilitate greater design flexibility. These diodes address the challenges of demanding high-voltage and high-current applications, such as switched-mode power supplies, ac-dc and dc-dc converters, battery-charging infrastructure, motor drives, and more.

PSC1065H-Q features

  • Reduced system costs
  • Temperature independent fast and smooth switching performance
  • Outstanding figure-of-merit (Qc x VF)High IFSM capability
  • High power density]
  • System miniaturization
  • Reduced EMI
  • Qualified according to AEC-Q101 and recommended for use in automotive applications
