Quick: What’s the forward voltage drop on a conducting diode? If you answered something like 0.6 to 0.7 V, you get a passing grade, but you’re going to have to read on. If you answered where T 0 and k ...

VRMs (voltage-regulation modules) that power the latest generations of computer CPUs have historically used multiphase, interleaved buck converters. These VRMs must meet the tight Pentium 4 and Athlon ...

Groomed for switchmode power supplies, the latest family of SBR power rectifiers offer what is said to be industry-leading ultra-low forward voltages and a safe operating area that results in ...

Aflux-balance equation for a forward converter with resonant reset enables a designer to minimize primary MOSFET dc losses and calculate voltage stress on power semiconductors. Forward converter with ...

Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. has introduced four new 100 V Gen 2 Trench MOS Barrier Schottky (TMBS) rectifier modules in the compact, fully insulated SOT-227 package. Optimized for power conversion in ...

Polyelectrolyte gel diodes that are double layers of two oppositely charged polyelectrolyte gels, sandwiched by two symmetric electrodes, are emergent ionic devices. These diodes are designed to ...

The energy efficiency, longevity, and versatility of light-emitting diodes (LEDs) have made them popular in various applications, including lighting sources in homes, offices, automotive, and ...

Tokyo Institute of Technology has demonstrated a blue OLED with a forward voltage of 1.97V at 100cd/m2, and still emitting at lower voltages such as 1.5V (right). “Conventional blue OLEDs typically ...
