APD360VPL-G1 Application Field and Working Principle

Diodes - Rectifiers - Single is one of the many type of diodes produced by APD360VPL-G1. The applications for these types of diodes range from linear power supplies to high voltage applications. They are often used as clamping diodes, because of their superior breakdown voltages.

Device Characteristics

The APD360VPL-G1 is a high-voltage fast-recovery rectifier diode with a low breakdown voltage of 360V. It has very low-time delay, which makes it superior to other types of devices. The device has an anode marking and choice of two cathode legs to ensure the polarization of the device is correct. In addition, it has an extended junction temperature range of -55°C to 175°C and a wide operating temperature range of -40°C to 125°C.

Applications

The APD360VPL-G1 is suitable for use in many applications which require a high reverse breakdown voltage and a fast-recovery diode. These include automotive power supplies, switched mode power (ac/dc and dc/dc converters), telecom power supplies, cell phone chargers and lighting equipment. The superior high-voltage capability of the device enables high-power and high-efficiency operation.

Working Principle

The APD360VPL-G1 works by creating an electric field across its junction and allowing current to flow when the applied voltage is above the breakdown voltage. This junction voltage is essential in order to ensure that current flows in the reverse direction. The electric field is created by an anode (+) and cathode (-) regions. When the applied voltage is lower than the built-in junction voltage, the device does not conduct. On the contrary, when the applied voltage is above this voltage (breakdown voltage), the device will conduct and allow current to flow. This electric field is what allows for the fast recovery time of this device.

Conclusion

The APD360VPL-G1 is a high-voltage fast-recovery diode made by APD360VPL-G1. Its applications include automotive power supplies, switched mode power, telecom power supplies and lighting equipment. The device has a low breakdown voltage and a wide operating temperature range. It works through creating an electric field across its junction, which then allows current to flow when the applied voltage is above the breakdown voltage. Thus, the APD360VPL-G1 is an ideal choice for high-power and high-efficiency applications.
