Eliminating snubber circuits in AC/DC power supplies through the use of silicon carbide diodes
Silicon carbide diodes have been around for some time now but have had little take-up in power supplies due to their relatively high cost. XP Power has recently adopted a silicon carbide (SiC) diode for the first time in the design of its latest family of modular, configurable power supplies known as fleXPower.
