A new 600V GaAs Power Schottky diode is compared with Si and SiC diodes in a 200W CCM-PFC system. With both, GaAs and SiC, the PFC system losses were reduced up to 25%. Higher on-state losses of GaAs ...

What we really want is an ideal diode with zero voltage drop. Sadly, such a thing does not exist; however, there is a type of diode with a lower voltage drop — the Schottky diode. What we really want ...

Members can download this article in PDF format. Power systems employ diodes to perform a variety of functions. For example, diodes can protect against damage due to power-source reverse-polarity ...

For beginners, diode types can sometimes be a bit of mental gymnastics. If all it does is act like a magic pixie check valve, why are there so many kinds? Schottky diodes are typically hard to ...
