55 ns trr — why that number matters for the switching stage
The STTH30RQ06W is a 600 V, 30 A ultrafast recovery diode from STMicroelectronics, part of the ECOPACK® series. Its 55 ns reverse recovery time (trr) is the key spec that separates it from slower 200 ns+ general-purpose rectifiers — in a continuous-conduction-mode PFC or a hard-switched inverter, that trr directly sets the turn-off loss and the ringing amplitude on the switch node.
Forward drop and leakage at the operating point
Forward voltage is 2.95 V max at 30 A. Reverse leakage is 40 µA at 600 V.
Package and mounting — DO-247-2 constraints
Through-hole DO-247 with straight leads. The large tab area couples directly to a heatsink.
The ECOPACK® series designation confirms lead-free, halogen-free materials per ST's green packaging standard.
