15 A to 75 A Devices Increase the Efficiency of AC/DC and DC/DC Converters in EV / HEV On-Board Chargers

MALVERN, Pa., Nov. 03, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. (NYSE: VSH) today introduced 10 new AEC-Q101 qualified FRED Pt^® Gen 5 600 V Hyperfast and Ultrafast rectifiers for automotive applications. Offering the best reverse recovery performance for devices in their class, the 15 A, 30 A, 60 A, and 75 A Vishay Semiconductors rectifiers are designed to increase the efficiency of AC/DC and DC/DC converters and of hard- and soft-switched or resonant designs.

The devices released today offer 30 % lower reverse recovery losses than the closest competing rectifiers and 48 % lower than previous-generation FRED Pt solutions while maintaining low conduction and switching losses. The result is improved light- and full-load efficiency in high speed LLC output rectification stages for EV / HEV on-board chargers.

The rectifiers are available in TO-247AD and TO-220AC packages and in X-type Hyperfast and H-type Ultrafast speed classes. X-type devices offer the advantage of lower Q_RR, while H-type rectifiers feature lower forward voltage. RoHS-compliant and halogen-free, the components offer high temperature operation to +175 °C.
