Explanation: Schottky diode uses a Al-Semiconductor junction. 10. A Schottky diode can be switchd off much faster than an equivalent p-n junction diode due to its
A. higher operating frequency
B. no recombination of charges
C. more compact structure
D. none of the above mentioned statements is correct
Answer:A
Explanation: Schottky diode uses a Al-Semiconductor junction. 10. A Schottky diode can be switchd off much faster than an equivalent p-n junction diode due to its
A. higher operating frequency B. no recombination of charges C. more compact structure D. none of the above mentioned statements is correct
Explanation: Due to the metal-silicon junction there are no stored charges, hence no reverse recovery time due to which the switching is faster. Sanfoundry Global Education & Learning Series – Power Electronics.
