BYW29G-200-TR Description

The BYW29G-200-TR is a 200V, 8A general-purpose fast recovery diode from STMicroelectronics, designed for high-efficiency rectification in power electronics. Packaged in a D2PAK (TO-263) surface-mount form factor, it is optimized for fast switching with a reverse recovery time (trr) of 35 ns, making it ideal for high-frequency applications. The diode features a low forward voltage drop (1.15V @ 10A) and minimal reverse leakage (10 µA @ 200V), ensuring energy efficiency and thermal stability. Although marked as obsolete, it remains a reliable choice for legacy designs requiring robust performance in demanding environments.

BYW29G-200-TR Features

• Fast Recovery: Ultra-low 35 ns trr ensures minimal switching losses in high-frequency circuits.
• High Current Handling: 8A average rectified current (Io) with a 200V reverse voltage (Vr) rating.
• Low Power Dissipation: 1.15V max forward voltage (Vf) at 10A reduces conduction losses.
• Surface-Mount Design: D2PAK package offers superior thermal performance and PCB space savings.
• Reliability: 150°C max junction temperature and RoHS3/REACH compliance for industrial durability.
• Low Leakage: 10 µA reverse leakage at rated voltage enhances efficiency in standby modes.

BYW29G-200-TR Applications

• Switching Power Supplies: Efficient rectification in AC/DC converters, SMPS, and PFC circuits.
• Motor Drives: Freewheeling diode in inverters and H-bridge configurations for brushed/brushless motors.
• Renewable Energy Systems: Solar inverters and wind turbine converters requiring fast recovery.
• Automotive Electronics: DC-DC converters and battery management systems (BMS).
• Industrial Equipment: UPS systems, welding machines, and high-frequency snubber circuits.

Conclusion of BYW29G-200-TR

The BYW29G-200-TR excels in high-speed, high-current applications where low losses and thermal robustness are critical. Its fast recovery, low Vf, and D2PAK packaging make it a strong contender for power electronics, though designers should note its obsolete status and consider modern alternatives for new projects. For legacy systems or replacements, it remains a high-performance, reliable solution.
