What this SiC Schottky brings to the PFC stage
The Infineon IDL06G65C5XUMA2 is a 650V, 6A silicon carbide Schottky diode from the CoolSiC™+ series, packaged in a PG-VSON-4 surface-mount case. The 1.7V forward drop at 6A sets a conduction loss of about 10W at full load, so the thermal pad on the PG-VSON-4 package needs a good via-stitched copper pour to the secondary-side ground plane.
No last-time-buy or NRND flags are on record for this order code. For BOM freeze and production planning, this part qualifies as a current-design-in candidate without an obsolescence clock.
