Schottky Bridges

Comchip's Schottky bridge series are designed to exceed the energy efficiency required in POE application while saving PCB space. The low forward voltage drop Schottky bridges improve rectification efficiency by 25%, and compact footprint of the Mini-DIP/TO-269AA package saves 50% of PCB space compared to four individual Schottky in SMA package.

Full wave bridge rectifiers are availabel in 1 A low forward voltage drop (low V_F) and 2 A versions. Voltage offering are 40 V, 60 V, and 100 V. In addition to using the Schottky bridge rectifier, the powered device is coupled with a TVS diodes (TV04A580J-G or SMAJ58A) for surge protection across the rectified output so any impulse are clamped before reaching the sensitive DC/DC converter.
