(Video) We use lots of Schottky diodes in our products for power supply circuits. Traditionally we’ve used the On Semi MBR120VLSFT1G which is 20V forward, 1A current, SOD-123 package, and a slim 340mV forward drop at 1A. You’ll be shocked (or is it…Schottk’d?) to hear that it’s unobtanium, with a 75 week lead time.
We looked at some other parts in the MBR120 base product number family, but they’re also out of stock! However, we will not be deterred – let’s use our Great Search Skills to find a good drop-in replacement diode at Digi-Key with matching-or-better specifications!
