Hello,
I have question regarding using flyback diode for 12/24 VDC motor. The motor will be selected to run on 12VDC or 24VDC via mechanical toggle switch. The motor current will very depends on the load from 2A up to 40A. The switch is rated for 80A. The motor will be running in one direction only.
I want to install a flyback diode parallel to the motor to protect the switch contacts. I have FR307 diodes, reading the FR307 datasheet shows to be OK as flyback for my project? 3A continuous current, 150 peak current, 1000V and fast switching Trr 500nS.
Did I make a good choice on the flyback diode? or should I using something else?
Any input is appreciated.
Thanks
