Diodes are one of the most commonly used components in electronics circuits as they help to control and direct the flow of electricity. Rectifiers are diodes that are used to rectify alternating current (AC) into direct current (DC) and are a critical component of many electronic circuits. Arrays are devices capable of controlling current in multiple directions. DH2X60-18A application field and working principle falls into this category.

DH2X60-18A is an array of 8 bidirectional diodes integrated into a single package with a shared anode. It is designed for single-ended forward biased symmetrical applications such as TTL, Rapidly Undershoot, and Low Imperfection logic. It also finds applications in low voltage circuit protection and switching applications including, for instance, power supplies, DC/DC converters, relays and AC/DC rectifiers.

DH2X60-18A operates under the principle of pn-junction diode where current only flows one way through the diode. The integrated bidirectional diodes provide two lines of conduction throughout the device and allow electricity to flow through the pn-junctions in both directions. The operating voltage range is between 1.3 volts and 18 volts, with the maximum reverse leakage current being 50 μA. It is also designed to withstand a maximum reverse voltage of 15 volts.

The circuit routing of the DH2X60-18A array is simple due to its symmetry and shared anode design; this makes it easy to integrate into larger circuit designs. The shared anode simplifies the routing of the device and allows for a more efficient use of space on the printed circuit board. The 8 bidirectional diodes in the device also provide protection from overvoltage and interference, making the device a good choice for applications where multiple lines of protection are needed.

The DH2X60-18A also features several important safety features. It has an ESD rating of 6KV and a UL breakdown voltage of 6.5V, making it suitable for use in high voltage environments. The device also features a temperature coefficient of -2 mV/°C, providing a measure of protection against temperature-induced failure. Furthermore, the device is UL recognized, RoHS compliant and meets the requirements of IEC 60950-1.

The DH2X60-18A is used in many different applications, ranging from low voltage circuit protection, switching applications, relays/transistors, and AC/DC rectifiers. It also finds applications in mobile devices and other applications needing high efficiency or low power draw. In conclusion, the DH2X60-18A is an important component of many electronic circuits as it provides protection from overvoltage and interference and is an efficient way of controlling current in multiple directions.
