Schottky diodes enable high efficiency power systems

CREE 650V Z-Rec SiC Schottky diodes enable high efficiency power systems with improved reliability. Devices provide zero reverse recovery current, high frequency operation with low EMI, temperature-independent switching behavior, reduced heat sink requirements and significantly higher surge and avalanche capabilities. Products exhibit higher efficiency than comparable silicon diodes, with essentially no switching losses, and a positive temperature coefficient on VF enables parallel devices without thermal runaway.
