APT2X61DQ60J

Apt2x61DQ60J is a diode rectifier array device made of 6 diodes enclosed in a single plastic package. It is suitable for operation in circuits of up to 600V. The Apt2x61DQ60J is designed to fulfill the needs of various applications, such as in rectifying arrangements and reverse polarity protection applications.

Application field

The DQ60J is a diode rectifier array device suitable for a wide range of application areas, including industrial, vehicle, and consumer electronics. It is primarily used for rectifying single phase AC mains, resulting in a DC supply, and it can also be used to protect reverse-polarity damage to circuit components. It is used in a range of applications, ranging from very low power (such as TV’s, microwaves, and so on) to very high power, such as industrial lighting systems. Additionally, as the DQ60J has integrated protection elements, it can also be used in applications that require over-voltage, over-current, and short-circuit protection.

Working principle

The working principle of the Apt2x61DQ60J is based on the physics of PN junction diodes, which allow current to flow from one side of the junction to another in a single direction. The DQ60J is an array of 6 diodes connected in a reverse polarity configuration, making it suitable for a wide range of rectification applications. The working of the DQ60J is further enhanced with the addition of protection elements such as reverse polarity protection, over-voltage protection, over-current protection, and short-circuit protection.

The DQ60J can be used for either full-wave or half-wave rectification applications, depending on the input AC frequency. In full-wave rectification, both positive and negative alternations of an AC voltage source are rectified, while in half-wave rectification, one of the alternations is rectified. The DQ60J is also capable of providing an efficient rectifier circuit, at minor cost and with almost no maintenance.

Conclusion

The Apt2x61DQ60J is a multi-purpose diode rectifier array device suitable for operation in circuits of up to 600V. It provides efficient and reliable rectification for a wide range of applications, from low-power consumer electronics to high-power industrial systems. The DQ60J has integrated protection elements and can be used in single-phase full-wave or half-wave rectification applications, offering a cost-effective solution with minimal maintenance.
