A 1N3064 diode is a rectifier diode specially designed to provide specific electrical characteristics and features. Rectifier diodes are used to convert alternating current (AC) to direct current (DC). 1N3064 is an ideal choice for high-power rectification applications. It is a unidirectional device, meaning that it conducts electric current only in one direction.

1N3064 is an axial-silicon rectifier diode with a low forward voltage drop, a low reverse current to reduce power losses, and features a high forward surge current capacity. The 1N3064 can handle up to 1.5A with a reverse voltage of 1000V. Additionally, its reverse recovery time is as short as 4 μs and as short as 5 μs for a forward current of 1A.

The 1N3064 provides improved forward and reverse current ratings over standard fast diodes. Its forward voltage current characteristic is low, allowing it to function as a very efficient rectifier or free-wheeling diode in an AC/DC converter. The 1N3064’s fast reverse recovery time makes it an excellent choice for use in high-frequency switching regulators and power supplies, where switching speed and efficiency are critical.

The most commonly used 1N3064 is the Hermetically Sealed version, which provides better resistance to vibration and shock due to its entirely metal construction. This version offers excellent mechanical robustness, making it suitable for use in a variety of harsh environments.

The 1N3064’s reliability and performance make it ideal for a variety of applications, including DC power supplies, AC/DC convertors, switching regulators, motor drives, and peak current limiting circuits. All of the aforementioned uses have one characteristic in common: the need for a reliable, fast-responding rectifier.

The working principle of the 1N3064 diode is based on its forward current/voltage curve. When the applied forward voltage is greater than the diode’s breakover voltage (Vbo), current starts to flow from the anode to the cathode. Then, current will stay constant until the forward voltage is higher than the diode’s saturation voltage (Vcc). The reverse current will start to increase only when the applied voltage is greater than the reverse breakdown voltage (Vrb).

In summary, 1N3064 diodes are well-suited for many applications, including AC/DC converters and power supplies, motor drives, and peak current limiting circuits. They are reliable, robust, and have a fast reverse recovery time (as short as 4 μs). Additionally, the 1N3064 features a low forward voltage drop and a low reverse current to reduce power losses.
