DESCRIPTION
The TURBOSWITCH is a very high performance
series of ultra-fast high voltage power diodes from
600V to 1200V.
TURBOSWITCH "A" family drastically cuts losses
in both the diode and the associated switching
IGBT or MOSFET in all "Freewheel Mode"
operations and is particulary suitable and efficient
