Product details

Fast recovery — what that actually means here

The spec calls out Fast Recovery ≤ 500 ns at > 200 mA. For a SiC Schottky, that recovery time is essentially the RC time constant of the junction capacitance — there is no stored minority-carrier charge to sweep out. In practice, the reverse-recovery current is near zero, which eliminates the turn-on loss spike in the MOSFET or IGBT that drives the diode. If you are replacing a silicon ultrafast recovery diode in an existing PFC design, expect the switching losses in the main switch to drop measurably, and the diode itself runs cooler because there is no reverse-recovery dissipation.

Sourcing and lifecycle

The IDW20G120C5BFKSA1 is listed as Active and ROHS3 compliant. No last-time-buy or end-of-life notice is on record. This is a current-production Infineon CoolSiC™+ part, available through independent distribution.

Frequently asked questions

Is IDW20G120C5BFKSA1 a common cathode diode?

Yes, the diode configuration is 1 Pair Common Cathode. The two anodes are on pins 1 and 3; the common cathode is on pin 2 and the tab.

What is the closest pin-compatible alternative to IDW20G120C5BFKSA1 in this component family?

Infineon offers several 1200 V CoolSiC™+ dual-diode parts in the same TO-247-3 package. The key differentiator is the current rating — this part is rated for 31 A per diode. A lower-current sibling would be the IDW10G120C5BFKSA1 (10 A per diode); a higher-current option is the IDW40G120C5BFKSA1 (40 A per diode). All share the same footprint and common-cathode pinout.
