Product details

What this SiC Schottky is and where it fits

The Infineon IDH15S120A is a 1.2 kV, 15 A silicon carbide Schottky diode in the CoolSiC™+ family, housed in a TO-220-2 through-hole package. Its zero reverse recovery time eliminates the switching losses that plague silicon fast-recovery diodes in hard-switched topologies like PFC boost stages, LLC converters, and motor-drive inverters. The 175 °C maximum junction temperature gives headroom for thermally demanding environments such as industrial power supplies, solar inverters, and EV charging infrastructure.

Package and mounting

Zero reverse recovery time (0 ns trr) eliminates the turn-on loss spike in the driving MOSFET or IGBT.

Lifecycle and sourcing

The IDH15S120A is marked as Active in production — no end-of-life notice or last-time-buy risk on the horizon. For volume BOM planning, this part is a stable line item with no imminent replacement pressure.

Frequently asked questions

What is IDH15S120A used for?

It is a 1.2 kV, 15 A silicon carbide Schottky diode used in power-factor correction (PFC) stages, LLC resonant converters, motor-drive inverters, solar inverters, and EV charging power supplies where zero reverse recovery time and high junction temperature (175 °C) are required.

Is IDH15S120A a Schottky diode?

Yes, it is a silicon carbide Schottky diode, which gives it the zero reverse recovery time and high-voltage blocking capability that distinguish it from silicon pn-junction diodes.

Is IDH15S120A equivalent to C3D15060?

The C3D15060 is a 600 V, 15 A SiC Schottky from Cree/Wolfspeed, while the IDH15S120A is a 1.2 kV device — they are not direct equivalents because the voltage rating differs. For a 600 V application the C3D15060 is a functional alternative, but at 1.2 kV the IDH15S120A is the correct part.

What is IDH15S120A's listed speed?

The listed speed is 'No Recovery Time > 500mA (Io)', which means the diode exhibits zero reverse recovery time at forward currents above 500 mA — the key performance advantage of SiC Schottky technology.
