AEC-Q101 Qualified Rectifiers with Zero Reverse Recovery in DPAK & TO-220AC Packages
MCC introduces the Gen4 1200V SiC Schottky Diode Series, an automotive-qualified family of Silicon Carbide (SiC) Schottky Barrier Diodes designed for high-efficiency power systems operating under demanding conditions. With zero reverse recovery current, eliminating reverse recovery losses and improving high-frequency efficiency, these devices help reduce switching losses and support higher switching frequencies compared to conventional silicon rectifiers, improving overall power density across automotive, industrial, and renewable energy applications.
Built on advanced Gen4 Junction Barrier Schottky (JBS) technology, the series delivers fast majority-carrier switching with improved leakage control and surge robustness. Devices offer forward voltage as low as 1.38 V at rated current, leakage current down to 0.1 µA at 25 °C, capacitive charge as low as 10.2 nC (typ.), and reliable operation across a wide −55 °C to +175 °C junction temperature range.
With AEC-Q101 qualification, high surge capability, and a positive temperature coefficient of forward voltage, the series delivers dependable operation in harsh automotive and industrial environments. Available in DPAK and TO-220AC packages, the Gen4 1200V SiC Schottky Diode Series enables more efficient, compact, and durable high-voltage power designs.

Understanding Gen4 SiC Schottky Technology
The Gen4 1200V SiC Schottky series is built on advanced Junction Barrier Schottky (JBS) architecture, combining fast majority-carrier conduction with improved electric field control and leakage suppression. Unlike conventional silicon rectifiers, SiC Schottky devices eliminate minority carrier storage effects, resulting in negligible reverse recovery charge and significantly reduced switching losses.
Gen4 technology further enhances high-temperature stability and surge robustness, supporting operation from −55 °C to +175 °C with ultra-low leakage current and a positive temperature coefficient of forward voltage. This enables higher efficiency, improved thermal margins, and greater reliability in automotive, industrial, and renewable energy systems.
