Low VF (MEGA) Schottky rectifiers
Maximum Efficiency General Application (MEGA) Schottky rectifiers offer extremely low forward voltage drop during operation, resulting in the highest efficiency and reduced heat dissipation. They are ideal, cost-effective replacements for rectifiers in SMA or SOD123.
KEY FEATUREs
- Ultra low forward voltage drop VF
- Up to 3 A continuous current capability IF
- Up to 10 A peak current capability IFSM
- Low power dissipation
- Integrated guard ring for stress protection
Key benefits
- Less heat generation and therefore
increased reliability
- Cost effective replacement of SMA and
SOD123 rectifiers
• Reduced boardspace requirements
• Medium power capability in SOD323F
(SC-90)
- Low losses over the entire current range
- Improved current handling capability
- Increased performance from small-signal
discrete footprints
Key applications
- Power management circuits – especially
DC/DC conversion
- Various rectifier circuits, e.g. in airbag
control units
- Low power applications, e.g. in control units
- Free wheeling diode for inductive loads in
relays and motors
- Reverse polarity protection, e.g. in car
multimedia applications
