New W series
of ultrafast rectifiers
for welding applications
High-performance product series for low power consumption welders
www.st.com
In modern welding equipment,
high-power secondary
rectification causes around half
of the power losses. This is mainly
due to conduction in the diodes.
ST has developed the new W
series of ultrafast STTH rectifiers
to overcome these losses,
leveraging our long experience
with market leaders in the
welding industry.
Using platinum doping, the new
W series of high-current diodes,
from 20 A up to 200 A, are ideal
for the latest requirements in
welding equipment.
