Silicon Schottky diodes are widely used in applications where high-speed switching is required to achieve more efficient systems due to their fast recovery time and low forward voltage. However, this type of diode has a lower reverse voltage (with a maximum typically around 100 V) than conventional rectifier diodes. Furthermore, the leakage current losses are higher.
