C4D40120D Silicon Carbide (SiC) Schottky Diodes by Wolfspeed

Indicates whether the component complies with the EU RoHS directive restricting hazardous substances. Buyers should verify this status for regulatory compliance and market access. Check the datasheet or certificate for exact compliance details.

Represents the maximum average current that can flow through the device in the forward direction under specified conditions. This is essential for thermal management and reliability in power circuits. Verify this rating against your application's current profile to avoid overheating and ensure long-term operation.

Describes how the device transitions from conducting to blocking state, including reverse recovery time and softness. This affects switching losses and electromagnetic interference in high-frequency circuits. Check the datasheet for recovery characteristics to ensure compatibility with your switching frequency and snubber design.

Categorizes the component by its function, such as diode, transistor, sensor, or module. This helps quickly identify the intended application and compatibility with your circuit. Always verify the device type matches your design requirements before proceeding with detailed electrical specifications.

Maximum voltage a diode or rectifier can withstand in the reverse direction without breakdown. Compare this rating with your circuit's peak reverse voltage to ensure reliable operation. Always verify against the datasheet's absolute maximum ratings.

Specifies how the component is attached to the PCB, such as through-hole or surface mount. This affects assembly processes, thermal performance, and mechanical strength. Buyers should verify compatibility with their manufacturing capabilities and design requirements.

Export Control Classification Number assigned by the U.S. government. Determines whether the component requires an export license. Essential for international trade compliance. Verify the ECCN with the manufacturer or supplier before shipping to avoid legal issues.

Physical package or case type of the component, defining its dimensions, mounting style, and thermal characteristics. Common types include SMD, through-hole, BGA, and QFN. Choose the package that fits your PCB layout and assembly process. Verify the exact package code in the datasheet for footprint compatibility.

Indicates the product series or family, grouping components with similar design and specifications. Helps identify compatible parts and compare within a product line. Verify the series against the datasheet to ensure correct application.
