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 ...

A single trench Schottky with improved performance replaces multiple planar diodes. Davide Chiola, International Rectifier, El Segundo, Calif. Planar Schottky diodes serve as output rectifiers and ...

Because the Schottky is integrated with the MOSFET, its forward-voltage drop is much lower than the voltage drop across the intrinsic body diode of the MOSFET, resulting in substantially less ...

For hard-switched power topologies, Infineon is planning a 100V GaN transistors with a integrated Schottky diode. “Due to the lack of body diode in hard-switching applications, GaN-based topologies ...
