The rated current of the EGL34BHE3/83 rectifier diode is 3 A. Its maximum forward rectification current capability is 15 Amps (at Tj = 125°C). Its reverse current leakage is less than 2 μA for one minute. This ensures reliable power delivery and performance in harsh applications and conditions.

The EGL34BHE3/83 is widely used in multiple rectifier bridge topologies, such as full-wave rectification, half-wave rectification, and flyback rectification. The EGL34BHE3/83 is designed to work in several combinations of input voltage, frequency, temperature, and forward current. This makes it an ideal solution for a variety of applications.

The working principle of rectifier diodes is based on the phenomenon of electron movement. When a voltage is applied to the diode, electrons start to move from the cathode to the anode, creating a current. This phenomena is called forward conduction. During reverse conduction, electrons travel in the opposite direction, from the anode to the cathode. The amount of forward current is determined by the current rating of the diode, while the reverse current is mainly determined by the reverse breakdown voltage of the diode.

The EGL34BHE3/83 is designed to handle both AC and DC power sources. It is capable of handling up to 16 volts of reverse current and a reverse breakdown voltage of up to 85 volts. This makes it suitable for use in a wide range of applications. It is also designed to handle up to 3 A of forward current. This makes it suitable for powering devices in the automotive industry or other industrial applications.

In conclusion, the EGL34BHE3/83 is an excellent choice for a variety of applications. Its superior performance characteristics make it ideal for use in dc power supplies, ac to dc power converters, and other automotive applications.
