Providing space-saving,\nhigh efficiency solutions for commercial, industrial, and automotive\napplications, the 200 V devices provide current ratings from 6 A to 15 A and\nare available in commercial and Automotive Grade, AEC-Q101 qualified versions.\n\nThe latest package in Vishay’s Power DFN family, the DFN6546A features a\ncompact 6.5 mm x 4.6 mm footprint and an extremely low typical height of 0.88\nmm, allowing the Vishay Semiconductors rectifiers released today to make more\nefficient use of PCB space. At the same time, the devices’ optimized copper\nmass design and advanced die placement technology allow for superior thermal\nperformance that enables operation at higher current ratings.

In addition, the rectifiers deliver high\nperformance for industrial automation equipment and tools, energy harvesting,\nconsumer electronics and appliances, computers, and telecom and medical\nequipment.\n\nFor these applications, the devices offer low reverse leakage current and\noperate over a wide temperature range from -55 °C to +175 °C, while their\nlow forward voltage drop of 0.75 V — combined with a fast reverse recovery\ntime (t(rr)) and low reverse recovery charge (Q(rr)) — reduces power losses\nto improve efficiency. The wettable flanks of their DFN6546A package allow for\nautomatic optical inspection (AOI), eliminating the need for an X-ray\ninspection. Ideal for automated placement, the rectifiers offer a MSL moisture\nsensitivity level of 1, per J-STD-020, LF maximum peak of 260 °C.
