So, while a real diode will only pass current in one direction, it will also drop some of the voltage. [Julian] shows you how you can get simulated ideal diodes and why you might want them in a ...

It might better be described as a ‘nearly ideal diode controller’ as it draws some current from the output circuit when no input is connected – 147μA if a 12V battery is connected to the output in the ...

Ideal diodes are MOSFET based devices that offer much lower forward voltage drop than traditional diodes and are a suitable replacement option to standard diodes in systems where power efficiency is ...

Nexperia has put an ideal diode, including its p-channel mosfet, and reverse polarity protection, in a 2.1 x 1.25 x 0.95mm TSSOP6 package. Called NID5100, it is aimed at industrial and consumer ...

Ideal components don’t exist, but two low-quiescent-current “ideal” diodes come close, enhancing active rectification on automotive dc rails. The word “ideal” is often used in ...

Linear Technology Corporation is claiming a major breakthrough with the introduction of the LT4320, an ideal diode bridge controller for 9V to 72V systems that replaces each of the four diodes in a ...

PLANO, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Diodes Incorporated (Diodes) (Nasdaq: DIOD) has announced an ideal diode controller for system protection against reverse discharge. Emulating an ideal diode ...

It’s for this reason, robust system designs implement an ideal diode approach. Typically, such solutions were implemented discretely and require many external components and lack protection ...

STMicroelectronics’ STPM801 is said to be the market’s first automotive-qualified integrated hot-swap and ideal-diode controller featured for functional-safety applications. The controller drives an ...
