Shottky Diode for TPD12S521DBTR

William Schofield

On the connector side of the TPD12S521DBTR there is a 27k pull-up resistor in series with a schottky diode on the CEC line. How do I choose this diode?

William-

Almost any standard Schottky will serve for this purpose. The diode is there solely to prevent back current into your power supply, so it's not necessary to pick a diode for any particularly performance. Feel free to use your favorite one! If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

Thanks,
Alec
