Technical Specifications:
The UF1010E typically features a repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM) of 100V and an average forward current (IF(AV)) of 10A. The forward voltage drop (VF) is typically around 0.8V at the rated forward current. The reverse recovery time (trr) is very short, typically in the nanosecond range. Consult the UTC datasheet for detailed specifications including maximum ratings, thermal resistance, and leakage current characteristics.
This fast recovery rectifier is commonly used in power supplies for computers, consumer electronics, and industrial equipment where high efficiency and fast switching are required.
