Robust rectifier diode with super barrier technology

Maxpower has developed its first generation of rectifier diodes with an unprecedented combination of performance parameters. The Max SBR diode combines the low forward voltage drop and the nonexistent reverse recovery charge of a Schottky diode with the surge voltage resistance and the low reverse leakage current of normal pn junction diodes. These Super barrier diodes are largely insensitive to high temperatures. The diodes are sold in Europe Fine power.

With the now available Combination of performance parameters highly efficient, extremely robust and compact electronic devices. Which should not fail, for the vehicle electronics, industry, IT and other sectors. Applications include B. Switching power supplies with high switching frequency such as DC voltage converters, Power Supplysadapter, chargers and LED drivers. The diode is also suitable for use as reverse polarity protection, free-wheeling diode and in Motorcontrols.

Rectifier: high current density and small forward voltage

Maxpower is the first representative of the new Max SBR generation to introduce the product family MXP40Rx in front. There are six different versions with a continuous peak blocking voltage of up to 45 V, an extremely low forward drop voltage VF of only 0,36 V at a current of 1,5 A. The leakage current is ten times lower than with conventional comparable rectifier diodes. Depending on the version, the diode is designed for rated currents between 10 A and 50 A. The components are available either in the TO-277A or the TO-220AB housing.
