NTE5818 thru NTE5825
Stud Mount Fast Recovery
Silicon Rectifiers, 3 Amp

Description:

The NTE5818 through NTE5825 are silicon fast recovery rectifiers in a DO4 type package having a typical recovery time of 150ns providing high efficiency at frequencies to 250kHz. Typical applications include DC power supplies, inverters, converters, ultrasonic systems, choppers, low RF interference, sonar power supplies, and free wheeling diodes.
