Product details
Overview
ND350N12KHPSA1 from Netz-Dioden-Modul is a 1200 V, 350 A average on-state current, press-pack silicon rectifier diode module with AlN internal insulation, rated for industrial AC/DC conversion in high-power motor drives and traction inverters. It features 0.4 mΩ slope resistance, 1.28 V max forward voltage at 1000 A and 150 °C junction temperature, and supports forced-air or natural convection cooling on KM17 heatsinks.
For engineers reviewing the ND350N12KHPSA1 datasheet, ND350N12KHPSA1 pinout, ND350N12KHPSA1 application, or ND350N12KHPSA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include repetitive peak reverse voltage (1200 V), RMS on-state current (550 A), transient thermal impedance ZthJC, mounting torque specifications (5 Nm for M1, 12 Nm for M2), and pressure-contact Si-pellet construction for high-current reliability.
Technical Context
This module implements a dual-diode, bipolar AC configuration with two independent arms in a single press-pack housing. Each arm handles full-wave rectification with symmetrical 1200 V VRRM rating and shares common thermal path to case via AlN ceramic isolation.
It operates under sinusoidal or rectangular conduction angles (60°–180°), with thermal performance defined by analytical R–τ network models for ZthJC and ZthCA. Transient overload capability is characterized up to 13 kA IFSM (10 ms) and 845 kA²s I²t at 25 °C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 1200 V - Maximum repetitive reverse blocking voltage per arm; defines DC bus voltage headroom in 6-pulse bridge designs. |
| IFAVM | 350 A - Average forward current per arm at TC = 100 °C; sets continuous output rating for motor drive front-ends. |
| IFRMSM | 550 A - RMS on-state current per arm; determines conductor sizing and thermal design margin under real-world waveform loads. |
| vF max | 1.28 V @ 1000 A, 150 °C - Peak forward voltage drop; directly impacts conduction loss and heatsink sizing in high-efficiency systems. |
| RthJC max | 0.130 °C/W - Maximum junction-to-case thermal resistance per arm; used to calculate maximum allowable case temperature under load. |
| iR max | 30 mA @ 150 °C, VRRM - Max leakage current at rated blocking voltage; critical for standby power loss and system insulation integrity. |
| Qr | Measured recovery charge dependent on -di/dt and iFM; affects snubber design and switching loss in phase-controlled rectifiers. |
| Weight | 700 g - Module mass impacts mechanical mounting rigidity and vibration resilience in rail traction or industrial UPS applications. |
Pinout & Package
ND350N12KHPSA1 is housed in a press-pack module with two isolated anode/cathode terminals per arm (A1/K1 and A2/K2), mounted via M1 screws (5 Nm torque) and electrically connected via M2 terminals (12 Nm torque). Internal Si-pellets use pressure contact and AlN ceramic isolation; no leadframe or solder interconnects.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A1 | Anode of Arm 1 | High-side input terminal for first rectifier arm; carries full-phase current in B2/B6 configurations. |
| K1 | Cathode of Arm 1 | Common return node for Arm 1; electrically isolated from K2 to enable dual-arm operation. |
| A2 | Anode of Arm 2 | Second high-side input; enables full-bridge or dual-half-wave rectification topologies. |
| K2 | Cathode of Arm 2 | Independent low-side output; allows separate thermal monitoring or parallel connection with isolation. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AlN ceramic isolation | Enables 3.6 kV RMS insulation test rating and stable dielectric performance across -40 to +150 °C ambient. |
| Pressure-contact Si-pellet | Eliminates wire bonds and solder layers, delivering >13 kA surge current capability and long-term contact stability under thermal cycling. |
| Transient thermal modeling support | Supplied R–τ network parameters (7-element ZthJC/ZthCA) allow accurate loss and temperature simulation in PLECS/Saber. |
| Standardized KM17 heatsink interface | Validated for both natural (60 W) and forced-air (Papst 4650) cooling, enabling scalable thermal design across power levels. |
| Mechanical mounting compliance | Specified M1 (5 Nm ±15%) and M2 (12 Nm ±10%) torque values ensure repeatable thermal contact resistance and electrical integrity. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-power rectifier module applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| DD900N12K | 1200 V VRRM, 900 A IFAVM, higher current rating but larger footprint and 0.095 °C/W RthJC. | Requires larger heatsink area and revised mechanical layout; suited for new designs prioritizing derating margin over space. | Select when system-level current demand exceeds 350 A per arm and board space permits larger module. |
| SKKT 500/12 | 1200 V VRRM, 500 A IFAVM, screw-terminal package with integrated heat spreader; 0.115 °C/W RthJC. | Uses standard screw-mounting instead of press-pack; lower surge rating (10 kA IFSM) and no AlN isolation. | Prefer where field serviceability and simplified assembly outweigh need for highest surge immunity and isolation voltage. |
Compared with DD900N12K and SKKT 500/12, ND350N12KHPSA1 offers optimal balance of compact size, AlN-based isolation, and proven press-pack reliability for retrofit or space-constrained industrial rectifier upgrades.

FAQ
What is the recommended heatsink mounting procedure for ND350N12KHPSA1?
Mount using M1 screws at 5 Nm ±15% torque to achieve uniform pressure across the AlN insulator, followed by M2 terminal connections tightened to 12 Nm ±10%. Surface flatness must be ≤20 µm and thermal interface material applied per Netz-Dioden-Modul Technical Note TN-ND350N-01 to maintain RthJC ≤0.130 °C/W.
Does ND350N12KHPSA1 support paralleling of arms for higher current capacity?
Yes - Arms A1/K1 and A2/K2 are electrically isolated and thermally coupled within the same case. Parallel operation requires matched dynamic characteristics, external current-sharing inductors, and individual thermal monitoring to prevent imbalance-induced thermal runaway above 600 A total RMS.
What is the maximum allowable case temperature during continuous operation?
The maximum case temperature is determined by IFAVM derating: at 350 A, TC must not exceed 100 °C; at 250 A, TC may reach 125 °C. Full 150 °C junction limit is only permissible under short-duration overload conditions defined in the I²t curve (e.g., 10 ms pulses).
Is ND350N12KHPSA1 compliant with RoHS and REACH regulations?
Yes - The module uses lead-free terminations, halogen-free encapsulation, and RoHS-compliant base materials. Certificate of Compliance (CoC) and REACH SVHC declaration are available upon request from Aetrix Electronics with order confirmation.
