Product details

It comes in a 14-TSSOP surface-mount package and operates over a -55°C to 150°C junction temperature range. This class of diode is used in power-supply output rectification, freewheeling diodes in motor drives, and snubber circuits where fast turn-off reduces switching losses. The 14-TSSOP footprint keeps the board layout compact, but at 31 A the PCB copper area must be sized for thermal spreading — the package alone won't sink that current without a decent pour.

The 195 ns trr qualifies as fast recovery (under 500 ns at >200 mA). In a hard-switched converter, that recovery time sets the turn-off loss and the ringing amplitude.

Frequently asked questions

What is the reverse recovery time of IDB18E120?

The reverse recovery time (trr) is 195 ns, which qualifies as fast recovery (under 500 ns at >200 mA). This determines turn-off loss and ringing in switching applications.
