BAL99-HE3-08 Datasheet/PDFThe BAL99-HE3-08 is a single rectifier diode created for high voltage applications. This diode has an instantaneous forward and reverse voltages of 8 kV and a reverse-bias recovery time of 9 ns. The BAL99-HE3-08 is specifically designed for high frequency applications where maximum component cooling will be beneficial. This component is also capable of handling a peak current of 50 A.
The working principle of this diode is the same as any other diode - it confines electric current to just one direction. When the diode is connected to a circuit in the designed direction, the anode terminal receives the electric current and the cathode terminal releases the current out. The integral barrier layer between the two terminals restricts the current to just one direction. When the diode is connected in the opposite direction, the barrier layer blocks the current, i.e., it becomes an open circuit. This particular diode is designed to operate at a higher voltage, allowing it to be used in a variety of electronic applications such as rectifiers, switches, and power supplies.
The BAL99-HE3-08 is a great component for applications that require high voltage. It is capable of withstanding high voltages, making it ideal for switching applications and power supplies. Additionally, the component is able to handle a peak current of 50 A, making it highly efficient for high power applications. This diode is also designed to operate at higher frequencies, allowing it to be used in high speed applications.
The BAL99-HE3-08 is a great component for high voltage applications.
