The new extra fast soft recovery diodes are diodes capable of operating at high commutation rates. It has low reverse recovery current and is outstanding in their dynamic characteristics. In this ...

In looking at any buck converter point-of-load regulator designed today, chances are that it uses synchronous rectification rather than a conventional diode for freewheeling Eric Persson, Executive ...

Key specifications that separate this new IGBT apart from others. What is a freewheeling diode? The multiple benefits of using SiC over silicon. As automakers and tier 1s strive to develop more ...

Great efforts have been made to improve power switches – MOSFETs and IGBTs – to decrease forward voltage drop and as well as to decrease turn-off energy. In switching inductive loads, the turn-on ...

Monolithic bidirectional 1200 V GaN switches (MBDS) with integrated free-wheeling diodes, manufactured at Fraunhofer IAF in a multi-project wafer run using GaN-on-insulator technology ...
