APD160VHTR-G1

The APD1600VHTR-G1 is a single-phase, higher voltage, higher temperature, switching rectifier. It is used in applications such as energy storage, point-of-use power supplies, as well as motor speed control applications. The rectifier can be configured as a bridge rectifier for direct current (DC) applications, or as a Buck voltage regulator for AC applications.

The APD1600VHTR-G1 is designed to operate over a wide temperature range, making it suitable for most applications. Additionally, it has the capability to pass a very high peak current, allowing it to handle high-power applications. Its low voltage drop ensures that it maintains a high efficiency rating, reducing energy losses and extending the life of the device.

The working principle of the APD1600VHTR-G1 lies in the way it conducts electricity. Its rectification process begins when a voltage is applied to its gate. When the gate is energized, current passes through the diode, resulting in a voltage drop across the diode. This voltage drop causes the diode to block current flow in one direction while allowing it in the other. This rectification process breaks the AC current into two separate DC currents – one portion that flows in one direction, and another portion that flows in the opposite direction.

The APD1600VHTR-G1 is designed to meet a large number of technical specifications, making it suitable for a variety of applications. It has a wide operating temperature range of -40°C to +105°C and can withstand peak currents of up to 2.5kA for up to 8ms. Additionally, it has a maximum reverse leakage current of 0.2mA and a maximum forward voltage drop of 2.2V. It is also rated for a peak reverse voltage of 1600V, making it suitable for higher voltage applications.

The APD1600VHTR-G1 is an efficient and reliable rectifier that is well-suited to a wide range of applications. It has a wide operating temperature range and can handle high peak currents, making it suitable for high-power applications. Additionally, its low voltage drop ensures that it maintains a high efficiency rating, resulting in reduced energy losses and extended device life.
