FEATURES
Monolithic Eight-Diode Array
Exceptional Efficiency
Low Forward Voltage
Fast Recovery Time
High Peak Current
Small Size

DESCRIPTION
This eight-diode array is designed for
high-current, low duty-cycle applications typical of
flyback voltage clamping for inductive loads. The
dual bridge connection makes this device
particularly applicable to bipolar driven stepper
motors.
The use of Schottky diode technology features
high efficiency through lowered forward voltage
drop and decreased reverse recovery time.
This single monolithic chip is fabricated in both
hermetic CERDIP and copper-leaded plastic
packages. The UC1610 in ceramic is designed for
−55°C to 125°C environments but with reduced
peak current capability. The UC2610 in plastic and
ceramic is designed for −25°C to 125°C
environments also with reduced peak current
capability; while the UC3610 in plastic has higher
current rating over a 0°C to 70°C temperature
range.
