This second course provides a more detailed description of high-voltage Schottky and p-n diodes, starting with the semiconductor physics background needed to analyze both types of diodes. The main ...

Vishay has introduced 16 new 650 V and 1200 V SiC Schottky diodes in the industry-standard SOT-227 package. Designed to ...

One is laid bare by [WizardTim], as he cross-sections a 20KV high-voltage diode. A conventional low-voltage silicon diode has a forward voltage drop of about 0.7V and a relatively low maximum ...

It’s a good question, and [styropyro] put together this fascinating bit of destructive testing ... diode-laser bazooka to a bottle-busting ruby laser. The latter requires high voltage, of ...
