Wolfspeed High Voltage Schottky Diode 1200 V 41 A 2-Pin TO-220 C4D15120A

Wolfspeed C4D15120A is a high voltage, high current silicon carbide Schottky diode designed for robust power electronics applications. Featuring a 1200 V peak repetitive voltage and a 41 A maximum continuous forward current, this diode is housed in a TO-220 through-hole package facilitating easy mounting in power conversion circuits.

Based on Wolfspeed's Z-Rec technology, the diode offers significant improvements compared to standard Schottky barrier diodes. The use of silicon carbide enables higher breakdown field strength and thermal conductivity, minimizing power losses even at high switching frequencies. This makes the C4D15120A ideal for demanding industrial applications such as switch-mode power supplies, high-speed inverters, and power factor correction (PFC) circuits.

The diode provides excellent thermal performance with a maximum operating temperature of 175°C and can handle peak surge currents up to 100 A. Its fast switching with zero reverse recovery eliminates switching losses and reduces electromagnetic interference. The device’s positive temperature coefficient forward voltage ensures safe paralleling without thermal runaway, reducing heatsink size and overall system cost.

Mechanical dimensions of 15.62 mm height, 10.41 mm length, and 4.69 mm width in the TO-220 package allow for compact circuit designs, and the 2-pin configuration is suitable for through-hole mounting on printed circuit boards.

High voltage rating of 1200 V with 41 A continuous forward current capability. Low forward voltage drop of 3 V contributing to high efficiency. Robust operation from -55°C to 175°C maximum ambient temperature. Extremely fast switching characteristics with negligible reverse recovery.

Positive temperature coefficient for safe paralleling and reduced thermal management. Compact TO-220 2-pin package, suitable for industrial power electronics. Optimized for PFC boost diode applications and high-speed inverter circuits.
