Diodes Rectifiers are silicon rectifier diodes designed to convert alternating current to direct current in power electronics. They are available in a variety of package styles to suit different PCB footprints and assembly methods, including compact surface-mount and through-hole options. Each device is built for reliable performance in typical operating environments and offers defined forward conduction in one direction while blocking reverse current, enabling efficient rectification in power supplies and charging circuits. Key attributes - Function: AC to DC conversion; one-way current flow with controlled forward voltage characteristics. - Compatibility: Suitable for standard rectifier circuits in power supplies, adapters, battery chargers, and motor controllers; available in multiple ratings to fit common designs. - Size and packaging: Choose from compact SMD or through-hole packages to match board space and assembly process. - Material and construction: Silicon rectifier diodes with durable encapsulation for rugged operation. - Performance: Designed for dependable rectification across typical temperatures and loads; available in a range of forward current and reverse voltage ratings to meet circuit needs. Applications - Power supply boards for consumer electronics and charging adapters. - Battery charging circuits in portable devices and energy storage systems. - Rectification stages in motor drives, inverters, and other power conversion equipment. Notes - Ensure appropriate rating selection for voltage, current, and thermal conditions.
