Diode Turn-On Time Induced Failures in Switching Regulators Linear Technology |
"Most circuit designers are familiar with diode dynamic characteristics such as charge storage, voltage dependent capacitance and reverse recovery time. Less commonly acknowledged and manufacturer specified is diode forward turn-on time. This parameter describes the time required for a diode to turn on and clamp at its forward voltage drop." http://www.engineeringtv.com/video/Linear-Technology-Diode-Turn--3;Latest-Videos-from-our-Member-C?NL=ETV-02&Issue=ETV-02_20141205_ETV-02_912&sfvc4enews=42&cl=article_6&YM_RID=CPG05000002162869&YM_MID=611 |
