Replacing the silicon rectifier diodes in a full-wave bridge with N-type MOSFETs eliminates the Vf drop in each conducting pair. The effects of the gain in efficiency are not ...

In essence, a rectifier diode, but one so small that it may one day help replace much bulkier diodes and other semiconductors found on today's integrated circuits to produce incredibly compact ...

AKM releases Fractional-N PLL synthesizer with VCO capable to replace variable capacitance diode configurations.

The equations obtained have been compared with experimental d.c. reverse characteristics of the copper oxide, selenium and germanium rectifiers, assuming in each case, first, that a Mott barrier is ...

Over the course of more than six decades, Mr. Lidow transformed International Rectifier from a start-up company that developed selenium photoelectric cells and selenium rectifiers into a world ...

Why replace the simplicity of four conventional diodes in a full-bridge rectifier with four N-channel MOSFETS and a driver IC? The more current your circuit draws, the better this idea becomes.
