Waveforms of forward converter using Schottky (fast-speed) diodes as output rectifiers. 7.6.1.4 Circuit With Practical Transformer The simulation results given above in Figs. 7.29–7.31 (for the forward converter circuit shown in Fig. 7.28) are based on the assumption that transformer T1 has ...
The schottky diodes in full or half bridge rectifiers and alternators can be replaced with the LM74670-Q1 solution to avoid forward conduction diode losses and produce more efficient AC-DC converters. The LM74670-Q1 controller provides a gate drive for external N-Channel MOSFET and a fast ...
27,28. An example of a tunneling conductance measurement as a function of bias voltage across the N/FI/S junction is shown in Fig.1(d). At small voltages (∣V∣ ≲ 200 μV) the conductance is strongly suppressed due to the lack of states within the superconducting energy ...
Other similar metallic rectifiers also saw some action, such as the Selenium rectifier, based on the properties of a Cadmium Selenide – Selenium interface, which forms an NP junction, albeit one that can’t handle as much power as good old copper. One final device, which was a bit of an...
example of the problems associated with Schottky switching diodes in DC/DC power supplies, a power supply having an output voltage of 5 volts will have approximately 92% to 93% efficiency. However, as the output voltage drops the efficiency of the diode rectifiers drops as well. At 3.3 volts...
Power rectifier: Schottky diodes are also used as high power rectifiers. Their high current density and low forward voltage drop mean that less power is wasted than if ordinary PN junction diodes were used. This increase in efficiency means that less heat has to be dissipated, and smaller heat...

You could also check the secondary rectifiers, to see if they are short - do it in circuit, as it will then check if there's a short elsewhere on the secondaries - these shouldn't blow the PSU, it should self limit, but weird things happen. A fairly unlikely fault could be the tran...
A high frequency starter-generator system uses an electric machine design that does not employ rotating rectifiers installed on the rotor. The output frequency of such a starter-generator is increased by about 200% as compared with a conventional starter-generator with the same number of poles oper...
