Introduction to GP10-4004E-E3/73 Diodes - Rectifiers - Single

GP10-4004E-E3/73 is a rectifier diode commonly used in various electrical applications. It is a semiconductor device used to allow electric current to flow in only one direction. GP10-4004E-E3/73 is a single phase, 400 VAC, 4A, surface mount half-bridge rectifier module. It is made up of a pair of diodes placed in an anode-cathode configuration and is used to convert alternating current to direct current.

Applications of GP10-4004E-E3/73

GP10-4004E-E3/73 is used in a wide range of applications such as power supplies, power factor correction, power converters, AC-DC rectification, home appliances, solar panels, automotive applications, computer power, lighting and many more. The reverse breakdown voltage of the GP10-4004E-E3/73 is rated at 400V. Its forward voltage drop is 0.9V, which is much lower than the traditional rectifier diodes.

Working Principle of GP10-4004E-E3/73

GP10-4004E-E3/73 follows the basic E=I(R-f)V operating principle, meaning the current flowing through the diode is equal to the voltage across it multiplied by the total resistance minus the forward voltage drop. This diode can support up to 4 A of current, and has a low voltage drop of 0.9 V, making it suitable for applications where low power loss is a concern, such as a smooth dimmer switch or a power saving light bulb. GP10-4004E-E3/73 works by blocking the current flowing in the reverse direction. The two halves of the diode’s anode and cathode are polarised which allows electrons to flow in only one direction, blocking any current from the opposite direction. In this way, the alternating current is converted to direct current, which can then be used in various applications.

Conclusion

GP10-4004E-E3/73 is an ideal rectifier diode for applications requiring low power loss and high current throughput. Its 4A current rating and 0.9V forward voltage drop make it suitable for a wide variety of applications, such as power converters, AC-DC rectification, solar panels and lighting. GP10-4004E-E3/73 works on the principle of allowing current to flow in only one direction, thus blocking the opposite direction, which helps in converting alternating current to direct current.
