Diodes - Rectifiers - Single

The VS-90SQ040 is a Schottky Barrier Diode, a type of rectifier. It is more efficient than standard rectifier diodes, and is used in applications where energy efficiency is important, such as in power supplies. It is also used in motor control, battery charging, and RF power amplifier applications.

Application Field

The VS-90SQ040 is mainly used in power supply and motor control applications, as it can provide high current rectification with very low conduction loss. It is especially suited to applications where high efficiency and/or small size and weight are paramount, such as laptop chargers, mobile phone chargers, and other low power DC-DC converter applications.

It can also be used in battery charging applications, due to its low forward voltage drop and fast switching speed. The diode’s low capacitance also makes it suitable for use in RF power amplifiers and other switching applications.

The VS-90SQ040 is also popular in automotive applications, due to its low forward and reverse recovery times. It is useful in applications such as starter motors, and for controlling the fuel injection system.

Working Principle

The basic operating principle of the VS-90SQ040 is the same as any rectifying diode, but with the added benefits of Schottky Barrier technology. It works by allowing current to pass in one direction (forward), while blocking current from passing in the opposite direction (reverse).

However, what sets the VS-90SQ040 apart from other rectifying diodes is its use of Schottky Barrier technology. This technology uses a metal-semiconductor junction instead of a p-n junction, which gives the device several advantages. Firstly, it has a much lower forward voltage drop than traditional rectifying diodes, which results in less power loss.

The device also has a much faster reverse recovery time, which is important in AC power switching applications. This means that it can quickly switch between conducting and blocking states, making it suitable for a wide range of applications. Finally, the diode has a lower junction capacitance than other rectifying diodes, making it ideal for RF power amplifier applications.

In summary, the VS-90SQ040 is a versatile Schottky Barrier diode, which is suitable for a wide range of power supply, motor control, battery charging and RF amplifier applications. It is especially suited to applications where high efficiency and/or small size and weight are important.
