Kt Kingtronics How Does a Schottky Diode Function?
10 Aug 2011In 1938, German scientist Walter Schottky developed a diode having a metal to semiconductor junction.
A Schottky diode, like other solid-state diodes, conducts electrical current in one direction.
It can operate at higher speeds than typical silicon diodes.
Advantages
Small pockets of electric charge build up in a typical silicon diode, slowing down its ability to turn current off.
A Schottky diode can operate hundreds of times faster since it avoids build up of electric charges.
It also has less than half the voltage drop conducting in the forward direction than a silicon diode.
Applications
Engineers use Schottky diodes in very high-frequency circuits, such as microwave transmitters.
Schottky diodes also see use in switching power supplies and solar battery charging systems.
Kingtronics produce and sell schottky diode 1N5817-1N5819, 1N5820-1N5822. if you have inquiry, pls send email to anna@kingtronics.cn.

About
Kingtronics International Company was established in 1995 located in Dongguan City of China to handle all sales & marketing for factories located in Chengdu, Sichuan and Zhaoqing, Guangdong, China. In 1990, we established the first factory to produce trimming potentiometer and in 1999 we built up new factory in Zhao Qing, Guangdong. Now with around 850 workers, Kingtronics produce trimming potentiometers, dipped tantalum capacitors, multilayer ceramic capacitors, and diode & bridge rectifier. We sell good quality under our brand Kingtronics, and Kt, King, Kingtronics are our three trademarks. All our products are RoHS compliant, and our bridge rectifier have UL approval. Please visit our Products page, you could please download all our PDF datasheet and find cross reference for our Trimming Potentiometer and capacitors.
