Description
The TU38/TU39 is a series of silicon rectifier diodes made in Romania by IPRS Băneasa, listed in the Agenda radioelectronistului (2nd edition, 1989) with a repetitive peak reverse voltage VRRM of 1600–1800 V and a maximum average forward current of 350 A [1]. Its codes are in the Variants table; the package drawing is in the Gallery.
The package drawing is not named in the 2nd edition; the 1st edition of the Agenda (1983) calls the same package of the TU diodes S-246 [1][3].
Each code also exists with R at the end (printed „(R)”), which the coding table of the same section gives as reverse polarity, with the anode on the base [1][2].
Measurement conditions (as printed in the table): IFRMSM at Tamb = 100 °C; IFAVM at Tamb = 100 °C; VF at IF = 1100 A; IR at Tamb = 150 °C; IFSM for 10 ms.
