Descriptive summary

Low forward voltage drop and low capacitance
Low V_F Schottky diodes offer a much lower forward voltage drop than standard switching diodes. Being especially useful in high current, low voltage applications a low V_F Schottky diode reduces forward voltage by at least 20 % compared to a standard Schottky diode.

Low C_d Schottky diodes are particularly suitable for high frequency applications. Compared to a standard Schottky diodes the low C_d Schottky diodes offer 20 times lower capacitance.
