This application note presents the real Schottky diodes as the best choice for lowest forward voltage drop. This document describes the low, medium and high voltage level applications, as well as ...

Testing the reverse-recovery behavior of diodes normally requires complex testing gear. You must be able to establish the forward-conduction conditions, the blocking state, and the transition between ...

There are at least two phases to learning about electronics. In the first phase, you learn about how components are supposed to work. In the second phase, you learn about how they really work. Wires ...

Snubbers play an important role in switch-mode power supplies. To understand use of the snubber, we have to look at the performance of a switch-mode power supply. Fig. 1. RCD and R2CD snubbers for ON ...

With voltage ratings from 600V to 1.2 kV and a current rating of 150A at a case temperature of 125°C, the 150U(R) series 235A, standard-recovery stud-mount rectifier diodes are suited for high-tension ...
