What is the reverse current value of the body diode?

Thread Summary

The user inquired about the reverse current specifications for the body diode in the MAX2201. The support engineer explained that the body diodes in their drivers are rated for the same current as the power MOSFETs, but due to high forward voltage, they cause significant power losses. To mitigate this, the drivers actively switch on the MOSFETs to reduce body diode conduction time. The user found this explanation helpful.

Hi,

I have a question about the body diode of the FET inside the max22201.

Are there any specified values ​​for reverse current?
