The Powerex R602__35 and R603__35 are fast recovery rectifiers designed for high‑current, high‑voltage applications. They provide an average forward current of 350 A, a peak surge capability of 6000 A, and can block up to 1600 V in reverse bias.
Key electrical characteristics include a forward voltage drop of 15 V at 800 A, repetitive reverse voltage rating of 600 V (non‑repetitive 1800 V), and low reverse leakage current (50 mA). The devices feature low thermal resistance (0.17 °C/W junction‑to‑case) and are suitable for use in inverters, choppers, and other high‑power switching circuits.
