FR16GR05

FR16GR05 application field and working principle

The FR16GR05 is a single diode rectifier used for general-purpose full-wave rectification application. It has low forward voltage drop, low reverse leakage current, and high surge surge capability. It is compatible with IEC, CUL and UL safety regulations, and can be used with a wide range of positive and negative pressures. The FR16GR05 also has a very low capacitance.

Applications

The FR16GR05 is suitable for a wide range of rectification applications, such as DC power supplies, regulated DC power supplies, motor controllers, audio amplifiers, industrial machines and other applications that require full wave rectification. The FR16GR05 can also be used in applications where one or two positive and negative polarities are needed.

Working Principles

The FR16GR05 is a single diode rectifier with a common-cathode configuration. It works by allowing current to flow in one direction only, from anode to cathode. It does this by having an intrinsic diode located between the anode and cathode. When the anode is more positive than the cathode, current will flow through the diode, rectifying the AC voltage. When the cathode is more positive than the anode, current can’t flow, and therefore no rectification of the AC voltage occurs.

In addition, the FR16GR05 also has a low forward voltage drop. This is the voltage necessary for current to flow from the anode to the cathode. It also has a low reverse leakage current, meaning that it doesn’t allow current to flow from the cathode to the anode under negative voltage. The FR16GR05 also has a high surge capability, meaning that it can handle large amount of current in a short amount of time without any damage.

Conclusion

The FR16GR05 is a single diode rectifier used for general-purpose full-wave rectification applications. It is suitable for a wide range of rectification applications, including DC power supplies, regulated DC power supplies, motor controllers, audio amplifiers and industrial machines. The FR16GR05 also has low forward voltage drop, low reverse leakage current, and high surge capability.
