I wanted to see what forward voltage I'd get on a 90SQ035 Schottky diode at different current flows.

Got to say great set up with the lamps
Thanks for that .keep them coming .
Many thanks. Both reasons really. This diode can operate continuously at high temperature (175C degrees I think) so reliability is a benefit. Low forward voltage means the diode loses less energy as heat.
Useing these types of diodes I presume it's to grab every last drop of voltage available from a solar panel or anything else that's in need of getting full efficiency from .or are they more reliable than the run of mill cheaper n series diodes .when you answer this question I'll learn something else . your vids are great…
