The IN5819 series employs the Schottky Barrier principle in a large area metal−to−silicon power diode. State−of−the−art geometry features chrome barrier metal, epitaxial construction with oxide passivation and metal overlap contact. Ideally suited for use as rectifiers in low−voltage, high−frequency inverters, free wheeling diodes, and polarity protection diodes. The 1N5819 axial leaded Schottky rectifier has been optimized for very low forward voltage drop, with moderate leakage. Typical applications are in switching power supplies, converters, free-wheeling diodes, and reverse battery protection.
