Description

The SCD06065 is a Silicon Carbide (SiC) Schottky diode, manufactured by AUK, housed in the isolated 2-lead TO-220 through-hole package with clearly labeled D (cathode) and N terminals. Based on the naming convention consistent with this SiC diode family (06 = 6A, 065 = 650V — matching similar parts like the S3D06065L and C3D06065A from other manufacturers), this device is rated for 650V blocking voltage and 6A forward current.

As a Silicon Carbide Schottky diode, the SCD06065 offers the key benefits of wide-bandgap SiC technology over standard silicon rectifiers: essentially zero reverse recovery charge, temperature-independent switching behavior, and excellent reverse leakage stability even at high operating temperatures. These characteristics translate into lower switching losses, reduced EMI, and higher overall system efficiency — particularly valuable in high-frequency switching applications.

With its 2-pin, heatsink-mountable package, this diode is easy to integrate into existing power circuit designs, and its SiC construction makes it well suited for demanding power conversion applications such as power factor correction (PFC), switch-mode power supplies, industrial motor drives, and power inverters.
