EIC Semiconductor Ltd. a leading manufacturer of diodes and circuit protection elements and partner of TRS-STAR GmbH located in Stutensee is launching a new high current axial lead mountable button rectifier diode for industrial and automotive applications.

The diode has a breakdown voltage of 400 V and a forward current capability of 50 A average at a case temperature of +150° C. Its high surge current capability rating allows high inrush currents which can often occur during switching on DC link circuitries with high capacitive loads. Good efficiency is guaranteed by the low forward voltage drop causing low steady state losses.

The axial button housing together with the high quality diode chip is offering high power density and high design flexibility with excellent sealing reliability preventing early part degradation in rough environments.

All this makes the part ideally suited for a broad range of rectifier tasks like e.g. reverse polarity protection in automotive or industrial battery application where the market is requesting an appropriate solution with low component count, less complexity but high reliability at reasonable costs.
