While 1N914BWS works on in theory, after diligent datasheet review its reverse leakage I_R at 90 C and V_f drop degrade our high-side gate-drive margin. To match the X7R reliability upgrade, we should consider a diode with lower thermal leakage to prevent bootstrap drop if we decide to lower the switching frequency.
