It is also used in circuit protection, over-current protection, high-power switching, rectification and free-wheeling diodes.

Construction

The GP10D-4003HE3/54 is a silicon-oxide-nitride-oxide-silicon (SONOS) type rectifier diode. Its construction typically consists of p-type substrate, two n-type source regions and two source gates. Its source gates act as a control terminals to control the bias of the diode. Furthermore, it also helps in increasing the breakdown voltage of the diode.

Working Principle

The main components of a single-phase rectifier diode are its p-n junction and its source terminals. The p-n junction is responsible for controlling the flow of current in both directions. It also acts as a rectifier as it allows current to flow in one direction. When a positive voltage is applied to the anode and a negative voltage to the cathode, the positive voltage electrons repel the negative voltage electrons and flow through the diode in a single direction. However, when a negative voltage is applied to the anode and a positive voltage to the cathode, the diode is reversed biased meaning that no current flows through it. The source terminals, on the other hand, are used to control the current flow in both directions. They can be used to increase or decrease the forward bias of the diode.
