Infineon`s Rapid 1 diode family, with 1.35V temperature-stable forward voltage (V F), ensures the lowest conduction losses and by means of soft recovery keeps EMI emissions to a minimum. The devices are perfectly suited for Power Factor Correction (PFC) topologies, typically found in major home appliances such as air conditioners and washing machines.

The 600V family has been primarily designed for motor drive applications up to 30kHz. For this reason, the outstanding feature of the diodes is the softness and V F parameter. This results in diodes that have excellent EMI behaviour and low conduction losses. The entire family has been qualified with a T j(max) of 175°C and are qualified according to JEDEC standards for target applications.
