Main Performance of High Voltage Diode

Repetitive peak reverse voltage or maximum reverse voltage is the maximum, allowable, instantaneous value of repetitive reverse voltage.

Reverse current is the current value when the specified reverse voltage is applied.

Reverse recovery time is the time needed for the reverse current to reach a specified level when the reverse voltage is applied while the device is conducting in the forward direction.

Forward voltage is voltage across the diode terminals which results from the flow of current in the forward direction.

Power dissipation is the amount of power which high voltage diodes dissipate when in the on-state.

Junction operating temperature is the range of temperatures in which high voltage diodes are designed to operate.
