This Schottky Rectifier uses the Schottky Barrier principle with a large area metal-to-silicon power diode. Ideally suited for low voltage, high frequency rectification or as free wheeling and polarity protection diodes in surface mount applications, where compact size and weight are critical to the system. Because of its small size, it is ideal for use in portable and battery powered products such as cellular and cordless phones, chargers, notebook computers, printers, PDAs and PCMCIA cards. Typical applications are AC-DC and DC-DC converters, reverse battery protection and 'Oring' of multiple supply voltages and any other application where performance and size are critical.
