Diotec's -3G Schottky Technology encompasses high power handling capability at small package outlines. It offers state-of-the-art performance in the field of Schottky Rectifiers. Reduced forward voltage Vf and low reverse leakage current Ir are two common features of all these new devices.

Lighting is an essential element in our present world. It plays a decisive role in our daily lives, right from low power indoor lighting at home, to mid and high power outdoor lighting, industrial and horticulture lighting systems. Lighting accounts for about 15% of global electricity consumption.

A new era came with the light emitting diodes (LED). They consume little electricity, are long lasting, versatile and contain no toxic substances. LEDs are the future for lighting. Other intelligent technologies such as digital lighting control systems and smart lighting solutions are emerging in the market, further ensuring an increase in efficiency, greater energy savings and thus lower the carbon emissions.

By choosing the best suited semiconductor components in the design, power losses decrease and energy savings can be pushed even further. Hence, the selection of the right components can also boost-up the overall performance.
We at Diotec Semiconductor focus on supplying high quality products like the 3rd generation Schottky diodes. Their features like low to very low Vf and lower leakage currents make them well suited for a variety of lighting applications like LED lamp drivers, lighting controls, polarity protection of automotive lighting systems and many more.

Our actual -3G Schottky portfolio includes rectifier diodes with (very) low forward voltage drop, reverse voltages from 20V to 45V and forward current ratings from 0.5A to 30A. A new flyer shows dedicated Schottky diodes for lighting applications. If you prefer reading a hardcopy, you can order it here.
