Hello users
I don't know if this is the right place to ask, but here goes:
I need to find a free wheeling diode to sit in parallel with a brushed DC-motor to deal with the reverse voltages occurring when the motor is stopped.
The motor will have a peak consumption of around 30-40 amps and run at 8-12V.
The diode should be SMD - Preferebly some SMD-equivalent to TO220 or smaller.
What kind of general characteristics must such a diode have, and can you suggest any actual types.
I stand by to be educated
Thanks in advance.
