Frequently Asked Questions

What are ultra soft recovery diodes?

Ultra soft recovery diodes are a type of diode that have a soft recovery characteristic. This means that when the diode turns off, it does so gradually instead of abruptly. This reduces the amount of noise generated by the diode and also reduces the amount of stress on other components in the circuit.

What is a soft recovery characteristic?

A soft recovery characteristic is a property of some diodes that allows them to turn off gradually instead of abruptly. This reduces the amount of noise generated by the diode and also reduces the amount of stress on other components in the circuit.

What are Fast Recovery Diodes (FRD)?

This diode with a p-n junction is designed to make the reverse recovery time (trr) smaller and is also called a high-speed diode. Compared to general rectifying diodes, the trr is 2 to 3 digits smaller because the FRD is designed with a switching power supply to rectify high frequencies of tens of kHz or hundreds of kHz.
