MBR20100CT-G1 Datasheet/PDFThe MBR20100CT-G1 is an array of silicon epitaxial-base diodes. It has a maximum current rating of 10A and a maximum forward voltage drop of 1.2V. It is used in power management and electronic power steering applications. The array is composed of ten individual diodes, which are rated at 1A and 0.12V.
The MBR20100CT-G1 is a bridge rectifier, which means that it is made up of two sets of diodes in a bridge formation. The array is composed of two sets of five diodes each.Each diode array is then connected in parallel, enabling it to handle higher power requirements than an individual diode. The anode of one diode array connects to the cathode of the second diode array to form the bridge. This design ensures that the voltage across the load is not reversed; only the polarity of the output can be changed by reversing the application of the bridge rectifier.
The main application of the MBR20100CT-G1 is in power management and electronic power steering (EPS) applications. The array is used to convert AC voltage to DC voltage, which can then be regulated with a voltage regulator. This ensures that power is supplied to the load at the correct voltage level. It also eliminates noise and voltage spikes, which can cause damage to sensitive components. The MBR20100CT-G1 is also ideal for switching power supplies and other high power applications such as motor control and SCR control.
The working principle of the MBR20100CT-G1 is simple. When an AC voltage is applied, current flows from the positive half-cycle through the bridge to the load. During the negative half-cycle, the current will reverse and flow from the load to the bridge. This action will cause the voltage across the load to remain constant. The efficiency of the bridge will depend on the quality of the components used and the current handling capacity of the diode array.
The MBR20100CT-G1 is a reliable and efficient bridge rectifier that is used in various power management and electronic power steering applications. It can convert AC voltage to DC voltage with a high degree of efficiency and is able to handle high current requirements. With its wide range of applications and easy installation, the MBR20100CT-G1 is an ideal choice for a variety of power management and electronic power steering applications.
