Diodes are essential in electronics and are utilized for a variety of applications. Rectifiers, in particular, are used to convert AC current to DC current, otherwise known as rectification. The MBR16H60-E3/45 is a single rectifier diode commonly utilized in various applications. This article will discuss the application field and working principle of MBR16H60-E3/45.

Application Field

The MBR16H60-E3/45 single rectifier diode is mainly used in DC-power supply, lamp-driver, rectification, voltage-doubling, and circuits-power unit rectification applications. It is generally used in switching power supplies, such as the ones used on notebooks, LCD televisions, and other electronic devices.

The MBR16H60-E3/45 also has a broad voltage and current range, allowing it to be used in a variety of applications. The voltage range is between 10-60V DC, and the peak current can go up to 16A. Additionally, the component has an isolation voltage of 1100V and non-repetitive surge current of 37A.

Working Principle

The MBR16H60-E3/45 is designed to rectify AC voltage with a frequency of 50 to 60Hz. It works by allowing current to flow in one direction, while blocking current in the other direction. As such, any AC current that enters the diode is converted to DC current.

When the anode of the diode is exposed to a positive voltage, the diode allows current to flow from the anode to the cathode. The current flowing from the anode to the cathode is referred to as forward current. On the other hand, when the negative voltage polarizes the anode and cathode, the diode prevents the current from flowing and is referred to as reverse bias.

Conclusion

The MBR16H60-E3/45 is a powerful single rectifier diode with a broad voltage and current range that is suitable for a variety of applications ranging from switching power supplies to rectification circuits. It works by allowing current to flow in one direction while blocking current in the other direction, thus converting AC current to DC current. This makes it a valuable component in all kinds of electronics.
