Some diode manufacturers caution against using the diode tester function in ohmmeters because it could exceed the reverse-voltage and forward-current ratings of sensitive diodes. This is especially ...

This article presents the reverse polarity protection for DC/DC converters. It describes the series diode protection, as well as the shunt diode, and P-FET polarity protection circuits. This article ...

PLANO, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Diodes Incorporated (Diodes) (Nasdaq: DIOD) has announced an ideal diode controller for system protection against reverse discharge. Emulating an ideal diode, by driving ...

This application note discusses the factors that affect dynamic voltage sharing of series connected diodes and explains why co-packaged devices typically see little difference in the instantaneous ...

TI’s LM74670-Q1 is a controller that, combined with an n-channel mosfet, makes a diode with a forward drop of 20mV 98% of the time. It only connects to the mosfet (and a capacitor) and not to any ...

Nexperia has put an ideal diode, including its p-channel mosfet, and reverse polarity protection, in a 2.1 x 1.25 x 0.95mm TSSOP6 package. Called NID5100, it is aimed at industrial and consumer ...

PLANO, Texas, July 23, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Diodes Incorporated (Nasdaq: DIOD) today introduces the AP74502Q and AP74502HQ automotive-compliant* 80V ideal diode controllers, providing robust and ...

One of the oldest and one of the newest semiconductors, Schottky diode use can be traced back to before 1900 where crystal detectors were all effectively Schottky diodes. Today, the new silicon ...
