Synchronous Rectifier MOSFETs: Cutting Losses in Low-Voltage High-Current Outputs

Key Takeaways A 5 V, 20 A output with a Schottky rectifier burns more power in the diode than in the transformer. Before you finalize the BOM, compare the related options: Synchronous Rectifier MOSFETs and Trench vs Planar MOSFETs. Verify your choice against official product data and application guidance: Good-Ark MOSFET product families and Good-Ark … Read more

High-Current Schottky Rectifiers: Losses, Cooling and Current Ratings

by
High-Current Schottky Rectifiers: Losses, Cooling and Current Ratings

A high-current Schottky rectifier must carry the required current while keeping its junction within electrical and thermal limits. A low forward drop can reduce conduction loss, but at tens of amps even a fraction of a volt produces substantial heat. Check hot leakage, package ratings, surge conditions and the complete cooling path before accepting the … Read more
