Ultra-Low Voltage Schottky Barrier Rectifiers DST Series

Littelfuse introduces a series of silicon Schottky devices designed for ultra-low forward voltage drop (V_F) to its rapidly expanding power semiconductor portfolio.

Well-suited for use in high-frequency applications such as switch-mode power supplies, as well as DC applications such as solar panel bypass diodes and polarity protection diodes, the DST series Schottky barrier rectifiers are designed to meet the requirements of commercial and industrial applications. By delivering performance superior to conventional switching diodes, they offer high junction temperature capability, low leakage, and ultra-low forward voltage drop. Their higher junction temperature capability and low leakage provide higher reliability in harsh, high-temperature environments.

DST series Schottky barrier rectifiers offer these key benefits: 

• Their ultra-low forward voltage drop (V_F) reduces thermal and electrical conduction losses, thereby improving system efficiency
• Their fast switching allows the use in very high frequency applications with minimal switching loss
• Their high junction temperature capability ensures high reliability in high ambient temperatures or in applications with minimal cooling available
