June 2005[Direct Feature] Making The Most Of Discretes
Advances in design and improved packaging has made it possible to develop optimised discrete semiconductor devices with low saturation voltage and Schottky rectifiers with very low forward voltage that meet heat generation, efficiency, space, and cost requirements. The collector power dissipation PC = VCEsat x IC is a major contributor to losses in bipolar transistors. Since the collector current IC is predefined by the application, the device manufacturer has only the option to...
