IDP30E65D2XKSA1

Diodes - Rectifiers - Single

IDP30E65D2XKSA1 is a single rectifier diode with a maximum power dissipation of 30W. It provides a high forward surge current of up to 65A and a reverse voltage of 1000V. Rectifier diodes are a very common and versatile diode in the industry and are most commonly used in power rectification applications. These diodes are particularly handy as they allow for the flow of current in one direction - namely, from the anode to the cathode.

Rectifier diodes, such as the IDP30E65D2XKSA1 are most commonly found in AC-DC power supplies and motor controls. The diode can also be used to build and control power converters and to create AC-DC rectifiers, either as a single component or as part of a more complex system. It is also used in charging circuits for batteries, as well as in audio circuits.

The way in which rectifier diodes operate is quite simple. The application in question is an AC circuit, where a voltage is seen to change direction periodically. However, when the voltage is applied to the IDP30E65D2XKSA1, it only allows for current to flow in one direction – from the anode to the cathode. Because it is only one-way, the diode acts as an electrical blockage against any current from the negative (cathode) to the positive (anode) side. The result of this is that a unidirectional current is created which is necessary for the energy to be stored.

As AC power is applied to the circuit, the diode will turn on and off rapidly. During the time the diode is off, the current will be blocked. This is what creates the distinct pulsed output which is an essential requirement in many AC-DC power supplies.

The IDP30E65D2XKSA1 is an easy to use single rectifier diode. It features a low stored charge and is capable of handling up to 65A forward surge current at peak operating conditions. Additionally, it is also temperature resistant and can withstand up to 1000V of reverse voltage. This makes the diode particularly suitable for use in higher power applications.

In summary, the IDP30E65D2XKSA1 is a high current and voltage resistant rectifier diode used in a variety of power rectification applications. The diode is capable of providing a unidirectional current which is necessary for the energy to be stored. Its durability and the high current it can handle make it an excellent choice for many AC-DC power supplies, motor controls, charging circuits, and audio systems.
