A diode makes 12V car electronics safer and simpler. It cuts extra parts, reduces power loss, and keeps important systems ...

Diodes has introduced AP7387Q, an LDO linear voltage regulator with a 5V to 60V input range and typically 700mV at a 100mA output current. “Thanks to its wide input voltage, the AP7387Q meets the load ...

Power Queen continues to innovate to meet users’ evolving demands. Compared with traditional 12V 100Ah batteries, the Power ...

Littelfuse, Inc., the global leader in circuit protection, has introduced the SM712 Series TVS Diode Array (SPA® Diodes), for protecting RS-485 applications with asymmetrical working voltages (-7V to ...

Called DZDH0401DW, it is designed to work with a p-channel mosfet in the high-side rail in systems up to 40V. It might better be described as a ‘nearly ideal diode controller’ as it draws some current ...

Fig. 1. Typical diode full-wave bridge. Full-wave diode bridges are found in many electronic systems (Fig. 1). At typical AC power line voltages, the drop across the diodes has little impact on the ...

Find a downloadable version of this story in pdf format at the end of the story. Silicon Schottky diodes are used in power applications because of their low forward voltage drop, which allows lower ...

As useful as the rectification properties of diodes are, the forward voltage drop they create can vary widely with temperature. This increases losses and can introduce tolerance errors in power ...
