Linear voltage regulators still have a place in modern electronics. They are easy to use and require only two additional components, an input and an output capacitor.
3rd generation of Diotec's Schottky diodes use a smaller chip but simultaneously provide lower forward voltage Vf and lower reverse leakage current Ir comparing to previous generations.
We started to use the semiconductor diodes in the beginning of the last century. At present, rectifiers account for 27% of the power management market and will be with us for a very long time. More than 4,000 Diotec products can be found in our assortment.
