Product Description

Product Overview

The Wolfspeed C4D20120A is a 4th Generation 1200 V, 20 A Silicon Carbide (SiC) Schottky Barrier diode. Leveraging the performance advantages of SiC technology, this diode enables power electronics systems to achieve higher efficiency standards compared to silicon-based solutions, while also supporting higher frequencies and power densities. Its design allows for easy paralleling to meet diverse application demands without the risk of thermal runaway. Combined with reduced cooling requirements and improved thermal performance, SiC diodes contribute to lower overall system costs. This device is suitable for industrial switched-mode power supplies, uninterruptible & AUX power supplies, boost for PFC & DC-DC stages, and solar inverters.
