Business Wire
Diodes Incorporated (Nasdaq: DIOD) today introduced the
SBR10M100P5Q and SBR8M100P5Q. These automotive-compliant super
barrier rectifier (SBR®) diodes employ patented and proprietary
technology and can significantly reduce power loss and lower
operating temperatures in automotive applications. When used as a
recirculating diode in DC-to-DC buck-boost converters for
automotive daytime running light (DRL) applications, these devices
can improve system efficiency by up to 5% while reducing operating
temperatures by up to 5˚C.
The SBR10M100P5Q (10A, 100V) and SBR8M100P5Q (8A, 100V) feature
low forward voltage drop, ultra-low reverse leakage, and fast
switching speeds; these combine to reduce system efficiency losses
by up to 30%. When compared to traditional Schottky barrier diode
technology, these devices improve energy consumption and reduce
running costs. Generating less heat reduces the cost of cooling
components and provides a more reliable end product.
SBR technology is a drop-in replacement for existing Schottky
diodes; it can deliver immediate benefits without any costly
redesign effort, and reduces time to market for existing systems
that need to meet more stringent limits.
In addition to DRL, the SBR10M100P5Q and SBR8M100P5Q can be
deployed in other applications as they deliver superior efficiency
and reliability performance over Schottky diodes in polarity
protection, switching and blocking, as well as AC-DC and DC-DC
conversion.
The SBR10M100P5Q and SBR8M100P5Q SBR diodes are
automotive-compliant to AEC-Q101 and can be supplied in accordance
with PPAP requirements. They are available in the efficient
PowerDI®5 package. Further information is available at
