The GI814-E3/73 Diode is a single rectifier, often described as a \'fast recovery\' diode due to its ability to rapidly turn off in response to reverse current. It is a high-speed, 100V, 2A rectifier ideal for high-frequency applications. It is often used in AC to DC rectifier circuits and voltage multiplier circuits, such as in power supplies and motors.

A diode is an electronic component consisting of two terminals, an anode and a cathode, which allow electricity to flow in one direction only. This means if the anode is more positive than the cathode, current can flow, but if the cathode is more positive than the anode, current cannot flow. This behaviour is known as \'rectification\'. In the GI814-E3/73 Diode, the anode is labeled positive, the cathode is labeled negative, and the junction between them is a fast recovery rectifying junction.

The fast recovery of the GI814-E3/73 is thanks to its advanced epitaxial construction with an oxide-nitride-oxide-cap layer, which acts as a switch that can respond to reverse currents before they reach damaging levels. This results in low forward and reverse recovery times, low capacitance, and high switching speed. It is also designed to operate at higher temperatures, although it must be used within its temperature rating.

The GI814-E3/73 is often used in AC to DC rectifier circuits, usually to supply DC power from an AC source. This is because the diode\'s rectifying properties means it can be used to rectify the AC sine wave into a DC ripple waveform. It is also ideal for use in voltage multiplier circuits, such as in power supplies. Voltage multipliers use a series of diodes to turn AC input voltage into higher DC output voltages.

The GI814-E3/73 is a popular choice for many applications due to its fast recovery time, low capacitance, and high temperature rating, making it an ideal choice for high frequency switching circuits, AC to DC rectification, and voltage multipliers. It is also designed to be robust and reliable, with a long operational lifespan. Although it may initially seem expensive, the long-term savings and performance benefits outweigh the upfront cost.
