WeEn WNSC2D401200CW Dual Silicon Carbide Schottky Diode For High Frequency Switched-Mode Power Supplies

Shenzhen Mingjiada Electronics Co., Ltd, as a leading company in the electronic components supply industry, is a long-term supplier of WNSC2D401200CW dual-channel silicon carbide Schottky diodes for high-frequency switching power supplies. As an important member of the Silicon Carbide (SiC) power device family, WNSC2D401200CW is becoming one of the preferred devices for high-efficiency power electronic system design due to its excellent high-frequency performance, very low reverse recovery loss, and high-temperature operating capability.

Product Overview Of WNSC2D401200CW

The WNSC2D401200CW is a dual-channel silicon carbide Schottky diode from WeEn Semiconductor, optimised for high-frequency switching power supply applications.The WNSC2D401200CW is based on advanced silicon carbide material technology and features 1200V reverse repetitive peak voltage (VRRM) and 40A continuous forward current (IF) capability, and maintains excellent electrical performance in high temperature environments. still maintains excellent electrical performance in high temperature environments.

The biggest advantage of the WNSC2D401200CW over conventional silicon-based Schottky diodes is its near-zero reverse recovery characteristics. In hard-switching applications, conventional silicon diodes generate significant reverse-recovery currents at turn-off, resulting in additional switching losses and EMI noise. The WNSC2D401200CW silicon carbide Schottky diode, however, fundamentally eliminates this phenomenon based on the physical properties of wide bandwidth semiconductor materials, allowing systems to operate at higher frequencies without sacrificing efficiency.

The WNSC2D401200CW's dual-channel design provides increased design flexibility for power supply topologies. Engineers can use the two independent diodes for interleaved PFC circuits, dual-switch forward converters, or half/full bridge rectification applications, simplifying system thermal management with a shared heatsink.The TO-247-3L package features an industry-standard pinout arrangement that is compatible with existing designs, allowing for easy device replacement and performance upgrades for customers.
