TO-220-2 — field-serviceable with basic tools
The PG-TO220-2-1 is a standard TO-220-2 through-hole package with the Infineon-specific leadframe. Two leads, tab is the cathode. If this diode blows in a customer's PFC stage, you can swap it on site with a soldering iron and solder sucker — no hot-air station needed. The through-hole mount also handles vibration better than a surface-mount part in an industrial drive that gets bounced around.
Active production, no end-of-life concern
It is also ROHS3 compliant, so it clears the materials declaration for EU and UK markets without exemption paperwork. No last-time-buy window to chase, no successor to qualify — just a straightforward active part you can spec into a new BOM today.
