Diodes rectifiers are electrical components used to limit current flow in a single direction. FR1007-AP is a type of single rectifier diode which is often used in a variety of applications. In this article, we will discuss the application field and working principle of the FR1007-AP diode.

Application Field

The FR1007-AP is an epitaxial planar type diode which is mainly designed to use in switching power supplies, chopper circuits, motor controller, DC-DC power converters, inverters and other power tools. It is also used in stabilicularly voltage regulator circuits and small signal rectification applications. The diode has superior temperature cycling and comes with maximum capacitance of 3.5pF.

Working Principle

The main working mechanism of the FR1007-AP diode is based on a pn-junction, using a depletion layer made up of semiconductor material to allow electricity to pass in one direction only. When electric current is flowing through the diode, a voltage potential exists between the p and n sides of the diode. This potential allows the electrons to flow from the cathode to anode, but the flow is restricted in the opposite direction. The diode operation can be regulated by adjusting the bias electrodes and the associated reverse leakage current.

The FR1007-AP has a reverse recovery time of 150nS and fast forward voltage drop of about 0.35V. Its surge current handling capability is about 6A, with maximum power dissipation to the environment of 1W. It has a Forward voltage of 1V which makes it ideal for applications with low current voltage drops due to the low forward voltage. It also has a high reliability and low internal resistance which makes it suitable for fast switching applications.

The FR1007-AP diode is a great alternative to discrete components like SCRs and MOSFETs which can be very costly, especially when used in high-frequency applications. It is also easy to use and can be soldered directly to the circuit board, eliminating the need to use sockets, which further reduces its cost. The diode is also very reliable, stable under heat and is not prone to thermal drift.

In short, the FR1007-AP rectifier diode is a very cost-effective and reliable solution for high frequency and medium power applications. It offers excellent reverse recovery timing and surge current handling capabilities, along with full temperature cycling support and a wide range of input and output voltage ranges.
