This Design Idea is able to turn off inductive loads at a very fast rate. When connected to a load (here 15mH + 10?), the modified freewheeling path in the clamping circuit based around M2 reduces the ...

The new extra fast soft recovery diodes are diodes capable of operating at high commutation rates. It has low reverse recovery current and is outstanding in their dynamic characteristics. In this ...

Key specifications that separate this new IGBT apart from others. What is a freewheeling diode? The multiple benefits of using SiC over silicon. As automakers and tier 1s strive to develop more ...

In looking at any buck converter point-of-load regulator designed today, chances are that it uses synchronous rectification rather than a conventional diode for freewheeling Eric Persson, Executive ...
