Circuit: Connect the Ftd02p in across the relay coil (cathode to positive supply, anode to ground). The 30A surge rating handles the initial high-current spike without failure, protecting the driving transistor. C. Reverse Polarity Protection in DC Inputs For low-power DC devices (12V to 48V, <1A), the Ftd02p acts as a blocking diode. Ftd02p Datasheet

Circuit: In a flyback converter secondary winding, place the Ftd02p in series with the output capacitor. Its fast recovery ensures the diode turns off before the next switching cycle begins. When driving an inductive load (relay coil, solenoid), the magnetic field collapses when power is removed, generating a massive negative voltage spike (flyback voltage). The 30A surge rating handles the initial high-current
By respecting the , adhering to the 50ns recovery time for high-frequency designs, and watching the 100°C/W thermal resistance , you ensure a robust design whether you are repairing a 1990s switching power supply or building a custom flyback driver.
