IntroductionThe 1N1126RA is a very common rectifier diode with an unlimited maximum forward current and an on-state voltage drop of just over 1V. It is an ideal choice for a wide range of applications, including rectification of AC signals, overvoltage and reverse polarity protection, snubber circuits, and voltage regulation. This article will discuss the application field of the 1N1126RA, its working principle and some of its key characteristics.Application FieldThe 1N1126RA rectifier diode is a widely used component in various applications. It\'s one of the most popular choices for DC power supplies where its low voltage drop and unlimited forward current mean it can handle high current without dissipating excessive power. Additionally, it can also be used in AC-DC rectification circuits, providing reliable conversion from AC to DC.In snubber circuits, the 1N1126RA can absorb back EMFs generated by inductive loads and thus protect sensitive circuitry from electrical noise. It can also be used in reverse polarity protection circuits to protect equipment from reverse voltage and over voltage surges. Finally, it is also used for voltage regulation circuits where its reverse voltage will limit the output voltage to a safe limit. In this application, the current must be limited to prevent the diode from burning out.Working PrincipleThe 1N1126RA is a single-phase rectifier diode with a junction built from p-type and n-type semiconductor materials.In forward bias, the junction\'s p-n particles will intermix and create a voltage-controlled current path that allows current to flow through it. During this process, a part of the input voltage will be dropped across the diode, resulting in a voltage drop of 1V. The maximum forward current that the device can handle is limited by its maximum power rating.In reverse bias, the p-n junction will be blocked and the diode will act as an open circuit. However, the reverse voltage should not exceed the diode\'s reverse voltage rating to prevent the device from failing or, in some cases, burning out.Key CharacteristicsThe 1N1126RA has a few key characteristics that make it so useful in various applications. It has an unrestricted maximum forward current of 1A, an on-state voltage drop of 1V and a reverse voltage rating of 1000V. The device is also rated for a maximum power dissipation of 1W.Additionally, the 1N1126RA is a low capacitance diode. This means that it does not introduce as much switching losses with high frequency signals, making it ideal for various circuit designs such as filters, power inverters and motor control circuits.ConclusionThe 1N1126RA is a versatile single-phase rectifier diode with numerous applications in both AC-DC and DC power supplies. It is great for snubber circuits, reverse polarity protection, and AC-DC rectification, and features a low voltage drop, an unlimited forward current, and a high reverse voltage rating. The device\'s low capacitance also makes it ideal for use in high frequency circuits.
