TY - JOUR AU - Tsukamoto, Naoyuki AB - As a component protecting low-voltage (1–3 V) circuits against disturbance pulses such as electro-static discharge, we propose the application of the forward characteristics of wide bandgap semiconductor Schottky barrier diodes (SBDs). This concept was verified with β-Ga2O3-SBDs, which successfully kept the line voltage to 2.2–4.2 V for an input pulse voltage of 5–70 V with a rise time of less than 1 ns. This indicates that it is applicable for protection against nanosecond-level disturbance pulses.
