BAT54C-HE3-08 Discrete Semiconductor Products

The BAT54C-HE3-08 is a high-efficiency Schottky barrier diode array that belongs to the family of Rectifiers and Arrays. It is a two diode chip which provides two isolated sections in one package.

The device is optimised for low forward voltage drop and low leakage current, making it an attractive choice in a wide range of consumer, general purpose and power management applications, such as AC/DC rectifiers, battery chargers, switchmode power supplies, voltage regulators, inverters, PFC, and various industrial power supply systems, due to its high efficiency and performance.

The BAT54C-HE3-08 is designed with two separate diode sections, each with its own die. This allows each section to be operated independently and provides excellent thermal resistance. It has a drain-to-source voltage of 30V and a surge current of 1A, which gives it enough power to drive most high voltage applications. The device uses a Schottky barrier design for low forward voltage and low leakage current, thus reducing overall power dissipation.

The BAT54C-HE3-08\'s working principle is based on a forward biased diode. When a voltage is applied to the anode and cathode of the diode, the diode allows current to flow in a forward direction. The current is limited by the drain-source voltage and by the device\'s power dissipation. When the voltage is reversed, the diode switches off and no current can flow. The current that does flow causes a voltage drop across the diode, reducing the overall power dissipation.

The device is also designed to provide a high level of input-to-output isolation. This makes it an ideal choice for high-voltage AC/DC rectifiers and other applications where input-to-output isolation is required. Additionally, the device can be used in applications such as surge protection, EMC filtering, and motor control.

The BAT54C-HE3-08 is an excellent choice for a wide range of rectifier, switchmode power supply, and motor control applications. It provides excellent thermal resistance and offers a low forward voltage drop and low leakage current, making it a great choice for high efficiency applications. Additionally, its high input-to-output isolation makes it an ideal choice for applications where isolation is desired.
