GP2D008A120A: Diodes - Rectifiers - Single

The GP2D008A120A is a diode which operates in single rectifier circuits. It is a low-cost general purpose single rectifier diode with a low forward voltage drop for surface mount applications. It has a current rating of 120A, meaning that it can supply 120 out of the 240A needed to power most consumer electronics.

A rectifier is a device which converts alternating current or AC into direct current or DC. The GP2D008A120A is a single diode rectifier, meaning it only allows current to flow in one direction. Single Diode Rectifiers are typically used in low to moderate power applications such as DC-DC converters, DIACs and SCRs.

The GP2D008A120A is constructed using fast recovery silicon epitaxial diode. This type of diode has a high switching speed and a low reverse recovery time. The diode is mounted on a small ceramic package which has excellent thermal properties. The ceramic package also makes it easy to mount on to a printed circuit board.

The GP2D008A120A has a maximum forward voltage drop of 1.1 V. This means that the voltage supplied by the diode is reduced by the amount of voltage drop across the diode. The diode also has a maximum forward current rating of 120A and a maximum reverse current of 10 mA. The maximum peak reverse voltage rating is 350 V.

The GP2D008A120A is commonly used in applications such as power supplies, inverters, motor drives, automotive electronics, audio amplifiers, and instrumentation. The fast recovery time of the diode makes it ideal for high power applications. The small package size and low cost of the diode also make it ideal for surface mount applications. The wide operating temperature range of the diode makes it suitable for use in a variety of environmental conditions.

The GP2D008A120A is a versatile single diode rectifier which is suitable for a wide range of applications. It is a low-cost general purpose diode with a low forward voltage drop which makes it ideal for surface mount applications. The fast recovery time and wide operating temperature range make it suitable for high power applications and harsh environments. The GP2D008A120A is a reliable and cost-effective way to rectify AC current.
