The BU12065S-E3/45 is often used in AC/DC converters, Converter-DC/DC Exchangers, and AC/DC Step Motors for electric home appliance control.

Working Principle

The BU12065S-E3/45 bridge rectifier can convert AC voltage to DC voltage in order to provide a stable DC voltage source. The working principle of this bridge rectifier is based on the fact that when the AC voltage is applied to the bridge rectifier, currents start flowing in the circuit. The current flow direction is dependent on the position of the diode. When the diode is from an anode to the cathode, current will flow from left to right and vice-versa. These alternating currents flow in the circuit until it reaches a safe voltage, which is then rectified. The rectification process converts the alternating current to a direct current.

The BU12065S-E3/45 bridge rectifier consists of four diodes in a bridge configuration, so that the current flow direction can be easily controlled. The four diodes work together to convert AC voltage to an efficiently rectified DC voltage. In doing so, the bridge rectifier can provide reliable voltage. The BU12065S-E3/45 bridge rectifier has a maximum power rating of 45 Watts and can withstand up to 630VAC RMS and 800VAC non-repetitive peak voltage.

Conclusion

The BU12065S-E3/45 bridge rectifier is a popular choice for various applications due to its efficient rectification process and wide voltage range. It is especially suited for applications that require AC to DC voltage conversion, such as power supplies, motor control, etc. By understanding its application field and working principle, engineers and developers can make the best use of this bridge rectifier for their projects.
