App note: Power losses and junction temperatures on parallel Schottkys as secondary rectifiers in flyback adapter
Parallel Schottkys performance over single Shottkys app note (PDF) from NXP This document gives an overview of power losses and the consequential junction temperature rise of two parallel Schottkys as secondary side rectifiers in flyback power adapters with up to 12.5 W output power. The focus is set on a comparison of the parallel configuration […]
App note: Introduction to schottky rectifiers
App note(PDF) on schottky rectifiers from Microsemi. Schottky rectifiers have been used for over 25 years in the power supply industry. The primary advantages are very low forward voltage drop and switching speed that approach zero time making them ideal for output stages. This latter feature has also stimulated their additional use in very high […]
