KAWASAKI, Japan, Toshiba Electronic Devices and Storage Corporation ("Toshiba") has added the 'TRSxxx120Hx Series' of 1200V products to its lineup of third-generation silicon carbide (SiC) Schottky barrier diodes (SBD) for industrial equipment, such as photovoltaic inverters, EV charging stations and switching power supplies. Toshiba today started shipments of the ten new products in the series, five in a TO-247-2L package and five in a TO-247 package. The new TRSxxx120Hx Series are 1200V products that use the improved junction-barrier Schottky (JBS) structure[1] of Toshiba's third-generation 650V SiC SBD. Use of a new metal in the junction barrier allows the new products to achieve industry-leading [2] low forward voltage of 1.27V (typ.), low total capacitive charge and low reverse current. This significantly reduces equipment power loss in more higher power applications. Source: BERNAMA News Agency
