CD214A-R1400 Datasheet/PDFCD214A-R1400 Single Rectifier
A CD214A-R1400 single rectifier is a type of rectifying diode that is used for various electronic applications. It is commonly used in power systems to protect power systems from unwanted transient load pulses and to provide efficient power conversion.
A single rectifier is a diode device with one anode and one cathode, which only allows current to flow through it in one direction. This device can take in AC power and output DC power in a precise manner. It is often used to convert AC power to DC power and to provide efficient control of current.
Application Fields
The CD214A-R1400 single rectifier is ideal for power supplies, UPS systems, high-voltage inverters, high-voltage drivers, variable-frequency drives, battery charging, and high-voltage solar applications. It is also used in automotive and industrial applications that require high efficiency and performance.
Due to its efficiency, it is also useful for powering electronic circuits and to provide increased current capacity. It is frequently used in applications where the power supply needs to be shut down quickly to protect from excessive voltage or current. Additionally, it can also be used in data processing, telecommunication, and medical equipment.
Working Principle
The operating principle of a single rectifier is relatively simple and straightforward. It consists of a single diode with two terminals, one which is the anode and the other the cathode, through which current and charge flow in one direction. The device can take in either AC or DC power and output DC power. The current flow is limited by the rectifier, making it safe and efficient to use.
When AC power is presented to the diode, the diode will only allow current to flow in one direction. This will result in the output being a steady DC output as the AC power is rectified to a constant DC power. This process is known as rectification.
The CD214A-R1400 single rectifier is comprised of a single rectifying diode with a rated reverse recovery time of 5 nanoseconds, which makes it ideal for applications with quickly changing voltage or current levels. This device is able to provide high efficiency operation when switching from one voltage level to another. The device is capable of withstanding reverse voltages up to 1200V.
Conclusion
The CD214A-R1400 single rectifier is a useful device for various electronic applications. It is efficient, reliable, and capable of providing precise DC power from either AC or DC power sources. It is often used in power systems, UPS systems, power supplies, and automotive and industrial applications. It is also capable of withstanding high reverse voltages and provides a fast recovery time of 5 nanoseconds.
