Schottky rectifiers with low forward voltage

8 July 2009 Power Electronics / Power Management

New from Vishay are two Schottky rectifiers with ultra-low forward voltage drops of 0,35 V at +85°C and 0,4 V at


+ 25°C. Featuring the miniature MicroSMP power package and voltage ratings of 20 V (MSS1P2U) and 30 V (MSS1P3U) at 1 A, the devices provide high current power density and low thermal resistance to enable space-saving designs.

The MicroSMP package of the MSS1P2U and MSS1P3U measures only 2,7 mm by 1,4 mm, with a 0,68 mm profile. Combined with the devices' high current density of 1 A, the rectifiers are designed to provide high power in small spaces for snubbers in hard disk drives for notebook computers, LCD TVs and desktop TVs; secondary rectifiers for miniature switch mode power supplies and adapters and for power-supply-type battery chargers; polarity protection for handheld equipment such as PMPs, digital cameras, MP3 players, navigation systems, GPS and cell phones; and polarity protection of power lines and signal lines in automotive and industrial systems.

The MSS1P2U and MSS1P3U feature a peak forward surge current of 30 A and maximum junction temperature of + 125°C. Suitable for automated placement, the rectifiers meet MSL level 1, per J-STD-020, LF maximum peak of +260°C. The devices are RoHS and WEEE complaint, and halogen-free.
