BAS21T-TP

Diodes - Rectifiers - Single: BAS21T-TP Application Field and Working Principle

BAS21T-TP is a single diode device from the Rectifier range of diodes. It is a small signal diode, available in a range of packages including SOT-23, DO-213AB and SOD-323, which is suitable for circuit protection and high-temperature, high frequency switching. BAS21T-TP has an ultra-low forward voltage drop and its reverse leakage current is also low, making it ideal for high voltage and high frequency applications.

BAS21T-TP is a perfect choice for power converters, rectifiers and energy harvesting circuits, offering electronic circuit protection and high switching speed, as well as its ability to minimize power losses through its low forward voltage drop. Its process-packaged full-glass construction makes it immune to temperature-induced junction leakage and potential cross conduction.

The working principle of BAS21T-TP is based on the principle of diode rectification. It works by allowing electric current to flow through it in one direction only. This means that when the input voltage across it is positive, the output current will be positive, and when the input voltage is negative, the output current will be negative. The forward voltage drop (VF) is the voltage drop that occurs when the diode is forward biased and the current is flowing through it. The reverse voltage drop (VR) is the voltage drop that occurs when the diode is reverse biased, preventing current from flowing through it. The reverse leakage current (IR) is the current that flows through the diode when it is reverse biased.

BAS21T-TP is an ideal choice for power supply design, circuit protection and high-voltage and high-frequency applications. It has a low forward voltage drop and a low reverse leakage current, making it suitable for power supply design and high-efficiency rectification. It is also resistant to temperature-induced junction leakage and potential cross conduction. BAS21T-TP is designed to offer a wide range of protection through its high switching speed and low forward voltage drop.

BAS21T-TP is widely used in modern power supply designs, where it offers reliable and efficient rectification, as well as circuit protection. It is used in a wide range of applications, including green energy harvesting, electric motor converters, and high-efficiency power conversion. BAS21T-TP is designed to achieve maximum efficiency in a range of applications, where the high switching speed and the low forward voltage drop help to minimize power losses.
