Wolfspeed 1200 V 38 A Schottky Diode, 3-Pin Through Hole TO-247 Package C4D10120D

Wolfspeed C4D10120D Schottky Diode is a high-performance silicon carbide (SiC) Z-Rec™ series diode, designed for high voltage and current applications. With a peak reverse repetitive voltage of 1200 V and a maximum continuous forward current of 38 A, this diode suits demanding power electronics environments.

The device employs a common cathode diode configuration and is housed in a robust 3-pin TO-247 through hole package, facilitating effective heat dissipation and ease of mounting in industrial and commercial electrical assemblies.

Key features include a maximum forward voltage of 3 V, peak non-repetitive forward surge current of 46 A, and operation in a broad ambient temperature range from -55°C to 175°C, making it resilient in varied thermal conditions.

Wolfspeed silicon carbide technology ensures zero reverse recovery current and minimal switching losses due to temperature-independent switching behavior. These characteristics reduce heat generation and improve efficiency particularly at high switching frequencies found in switch-mode power supplies and inverter systems.

The compact dimensions (21.1 mm height, 16.13 mm length, and 5.21 mm width) allow for space-efficient circuit designs. This diode’s positive temperature coefficient forward voltage enables paralleling multiple devices without risk of thermal runaway, simplifying power module design and improving reliability.

This component is designed to significantly reduce heatsink requirements, supporting more compact and cost-effective power systems for industrial automation, motor drives, renewable energy inverters, and advanced power conditioning applications.

The diode features a common cathode configuration optimized for high efficiency. Maximum forward voltage is rated at 3 V providing low power loss under switching. Operating temperature ranges from -55°C to 175°C ensuring reliability.

Compact TO-247 housing supports easy through-hole mounting. Peak reverse repetitive voltage of 1200 V and continuous forward current of 38 A. Explore the Wolfspeed range for advanced semiconductor solutions suitable for industrial, manufacturing, and electrical power conversion applications.
