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 ...
Toshiba has developed a SiC MOSFET that arranges embedded Schottky barrier diodes in a check pattern to achieve both low on-resistance and high reliability. The company reports that the design reduces ...
