JAN1N3595-1

Introduction to Diodes - Rectifiers - Single

A diode is an electrical component with two terminals that allows current to flow through only one terminal in one direction and that significantly reduces the flow in the other direction. Diodes are widely used in various applications, from simple rectifier circuits to complex specialized devices such as solar cells and microwave devices. A diode can be used to regulate a voltage or current, detect a voltage change, provide protection from a reversed polarity, or even more.The diodes can be categorized into three types - conventional diodes, special diodes, and rectifier diodes. The rectifier diodes are further classified as single diodes and multi-phase diodes. The single diodes are the ones mostly used in rectifier applications.

Working Principle

The JAN1N3595-1 is a single rectifier diode and works on the simple idea that current can only flow easily in one direction. In the forward direction, the diode acts as a barrier and behaves like a closed switch, allowing the current to flow, while in the reverse direction, the diode restricts the current to a negligible level.When the voltage applied to the anode of the JAN1N3595-1 exceeds the breakdown voltage of the device, the current starts to flow, and the diode acts like an open switch, allowing the current to flow in the forward direction. The diode will continue to act as an open switch until the voltage drops below the reverse breakdown voltage of the diode.
