83CNQ100SM Datasheet/PDFThe 83CNQ100SM is a small surface mount silicon rectifier diode that belongs to the 1A Power Schottky Rectifier family of rectifier diodes. This particular rectifier diode is specially designed for automatic assembly and employs a special glass-passivated junction to increase its power handling capabilities. It also takes advantage of a low turn-on drop voltage, which allows it to work better in high-frequency switching circuits. This makes it one of the more popular rectifier diodes on the market.
The 83CNQ100SM is also designed to provide very good thermal performance and can accommodate a wide range of operating temperatures. Its high forward surge capability also makes it very reliable and capable of operating in high surge conditions. This makes it one of the most reliable and capable rectifier diodes for a variety of applications.
The 83CNQ100SM rectifier diode is mainly used in automotive and automotive-related applications and is often used for post-rectification applications, such as providing diode protection for fields, transistors, and diodes in automotive systems. It is also commonly used in power line communications and power distribution systems.
The 83CNQ100SM rectifier diode works by converting alternating current (AC) into direct current (DC). When it is connected to a power source, the diode allows the AC current to flow in one direction, while blocking the current from flowing in the opposite direction. This action is known as “rectification” and is used to convert AC power into usable DC power. The 83CNQ100SM has a forward voltage drop of just 0.35V, which is much lower than the forward voltage drop of other rectifier diodes and allows it to work more efficiently in high frequency switching circuits. By keeping the voltage drop low, the 83CNQ100SM also helps to minimize power losses.
The 83CNQ100SM can be used in a wide variety of circuits, from post-rectification protection to replacement diodes for automotive systems. It is also used in a wide variety of applications, from lighting and general home use, to high-frequency switching circuits in car radios, to power line communications and power distribution systems. Its features make it one of the more popular and reliable rectifier diodes on the market.
