Info

  1. Si1308EDL, MCH3478 or PJ2306 is a N-Channel Power MOSFET. The specification of selection criteria is RDS<200m ohm (the lower the better), VDDS=30V, VGS<2.5V@Id=0.5A or less.
  2. SS2040FL is a Schottky diode needs the VF as lower as possible, e.g. 0.2 to 0.4V and the repetitive peak reverse voltage > 25V.
