Additional Details:
The SS16/R-11 typically features a repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM) of 60V and a maximum average forward rectified current (IF(AV)) of 1A. The forward voltage (VF) is typically around 0.7V at 1A. The device is commonly available in a SMA (DO-214AC) package. The operating temperature range is generally between -65°C to +150°C. This rectifier's fast switching speed and low leakage current contribute to its high efficiency and suitability for high-frequency applications. The SMA package provides good thermal dissipation, allowing the device to operate at higher currents without overheating. The /R-11 designation likely pertains to the reel size or specific packaging configuration from Vishay.
