FST80100

Rectifier arrays are electronic components composed of two or more diodes connected to a single circuit node to form a rectifier. The FST80100 application field rectifier is a high-current rectifier array capable of providing stable and efficient power supply, thus allowing the electrical energy to switch from alternating current (AC) to direct current (DC).

Working Principle

FST80100 rectifier array works on the principle of rectified current. It consists of two or more diodes connected in series to an input node, as well as an output node. When an AC voltage is applied, the diode takes turns in conducting current from the input to the output node until the process is ended. This happens when one diode is forward biased and the other is reverse biased. When a diode is forward biased, it allows a continuous flow of current, causing the total voltage across the load to increase. On the other hand, the reverse biased diode prevents current from passing through, therefore reducing the input voltage. As a result, the rectified output is composed of pulses of current with each pulse being equal to the input AC voltage. Thus, it converts AC to DC thus supplying steady electrical energy.

Application Field

Rectifier arrays like the FST80100 are extremely versatile, and can be used in many applications ranging from power supply to military and space applications. In the automotive industry, rectifier arrays are used to convert the output of an alternator to DC power. In the military, they are used to supply power to many different communication systems that need stable DC energy. In space, it is the main power supply for satellite systems. Moreover, it is used in power amplifiers, linear voltage regulators, and industrial applications such as solar systems and wind turbines. Along with this, it is also a popular choice for filtering and converting power for many electrical circuits.

Overall, the FST80100 rectifier array is a highly efficient and reliable power supply solution that can be used to convert AC to DC. It is used in many applications ranging from automotive electronics to aerospace systems, as well as a popular choice for filtering and converting power for many electrical circuits.
