IRKE56/06A Introduction

IRKE56/06A is a single rectifier diode which is mainly used to protect device from over-voltage, reverse polarity and to convert AC to DC power supplies.It is made up of light weight, low cost and very reliable package; therefore, it is quite popular in various electronic circuits and power supplies.

IRKE56/06A Applications

IRKE56/06A is mainly used to protect devices from over voltage and reverse polarity, which will cause damage to the device. It can also be used to convert AC to DC power supplies, as it is widely employed in many power supply design.Some of the common applications for this type of rectifier diode include switching power supply, chargers, LED lighting, DC-DC converters, AC-DC converters, UPS and general purpose rectification. It is also used in DC motors, rectification of higher currents, relays and audio amplifiers.

IRKE56/06A Characteristics

IRKE56/06A was designed with a high power energy efficiency and low forward voltage drop.It has a maximum peak reverse voltage of 600V, a maximum average forward current of 6A and it is able to withstand up to 4.9A in continuous mode. IRKE56/06A is also available in through-hole mounting packages.

IRKE56/06A Working Principle

The working principle of IRKE56/06A rectifier diode is based on the properties of P-N junction diodes. When the diode is forward biased, the positive charge carriers flow from the P region to the N region and the current flows in the forward direction; this is known as forward bias.When the diode is reverse biased, the positive charge carriers move away from the N region to the P region and the current flows in the reverse direction; this is known as reverse bias.In the case of IRKE56/06A, when the diode is forward biased, the PN junction diode conducts the current in the forward direction and voltage applied to the diode is blocked from the device. When the diode is reverse biased, the PN junction diode blocks the current or voltage from the device. This mechanism is widely used in many different applications like protection from over voltage or reversed polarity.

Conclusion

IRKE56/06A is a single rectifier diode which provides protections from over-voltage, reverse polarity and is suitable for converting AC to DC power supplies.It has a maximum peak reverse voltage of 600V, a maximum average forward current of 6A and it is able to withstand up to 4.9A in continuous mode. It is also available in through-hole mounting packages. Thanks to its light weight, low cost and high reliability, IRKE56/06A is widely used in many electronic circuits and AC to DC power supplies. It mainly protects devices from over voltage and reversal polarity and is also used in many other applications like switching power supply, chargers, LED lighting, DC-DC converters, AC-DC converters, UPS and general purpose rectification and DC motors.
