Typical Application

Description

The SARS02 is an 800 V silicon diode designed especially for

use in high-efficiency snubber circuits. This diode can sustain

a high voltage with low loss, with low-noise rectification.

To suppress surge voltage, conduct the surge voltage and

capacitor to discharge the energy into power supply line with

the regenerative circuit operation, shown below in the typical

application circuit schematic.
