A rectifier array, also known as a diode bridge, is a semiconductor device composed of multiple diodes used to convert alternating current to direct current. The GSD2004S-G3-08 rectifier array is a bridge rectifier that consists of four Schottky barrier diodes integrated into a single component.

Applications

Rectifier arrays are widely used in a variety of DC power applications. In situations where higher current requirements are needed, using a rectifier array is often more cost efficient and reliable than using two separate diodes. In addition, rectifier arrays provide a number of protection features for systems such as reverse-polarity protection, inrush current limiting, overload protection, and line filtering.

The GSD2004S-G3-08 rectifier array is designed for high-current bridge rectifier applications. It is suitable for motor control, power supply, and other DC power applications with currents between 4A and 10A, and a maximum voltage of 40V. The GSD2004S-G3-08 can also be used in switching power supplies and DC-DC converters. It is available in various packages, including SOT 223, SOT 227, and SOT 241.

Working Principle

The GSD2004S-G3-08 rectifier array is essentially a four-diode bridge connected to an AC power source on one side and a DC load on the other side. The bridge is essentially formed by the diodes in a “square” configuration. When a positive voltage is applied at the anode of the diode, electrons are pushed through the device and into the load, allowing current to flow through the circuit. When the voltage is reversed, the diodes become reverse-biased, preventing current from passing through.

The GSD2004S-G3-08 rectifier array can handle both AC and DC voltages, and provides protection features such as reverse voltage protection, inrush current limiting, automatic overload protection, and line filtering. The device also features a low forward voltage and low reverse leakage current.

Conclusion

The GSD2004S-G3-08 rectifier array is a versatile, cost-effective, and reliable solution for applications requiring high-current bridge rectifiers. It offers reverse voltage protection, inrush current limiting, overload protection, and line filtering. The device is available in a variety of small-footprint packages, making it suitable for a variety of design and power configurations.
