Diodes, rectifiers, and arrays are electronic components that are capable of controlling the flow of current in one direction. The MBR20200CT-BP component is an example of such a component, and its application field and working principle will be discussed in this article.

Application Field

The MBR20200CT-BP component is a single-phase, 20A, 200V, rectifier bridge component. It is mainly used in applications where a high voltage and/or current load need to be supplied with DC voltage. Common uses of this component include battery chargers, AC/DC and DC/DC converters, and switch mode power supplies. In addition, it can also be used in automobiles, solar energy systems, and other applications.

Working Principle

The MBR20200CT-BP component is made up of four individual diodes that are arranged in a bridge formation. The component has two terminals, referred to as the anode and cathode. When an AC voltage is applied to the component, each of the four diodes will alternately conduct in either direction. This creates a pulsating DC voltage across the two terminals of the component. The magnitude of this DC voltage will depend on the applied AC voltage and the forward voltage drop of each of the four diodes.

The component also has two additional terminals, known as the commutation lead terminals. These terminals are used to ensure that the diodes turn on and off in an orderly manner in order to reduce the amount of unwanted dissipated power that can occur if they were to turn on and off in a chaotic manner. The commutation lead terminals are connected to the anode terminals of the four diodes.

The component also has an integrated heat sink, which is used to dissipate the heat that is generated by the component during operation. This heat sink is essential for the safe and reliable operation of the component, as it keeps the temperature within safe limits.

Conclusion

The MBR20200CT-BP component is an example of a rectifier bridge component that can be used in high voltage and/or current applications. Its main application fields include battery chargers, AC/DC and DC/DC converters, and switch mode power supplies. It is made up of four individual diodes arranged in a bridge formation, and has two additional terminals, known as the commutation lead terminals, which are used to ensure the appropriate turn on and off of the individual diodes. The component also has an integrated heat sink, which is used to dissipate the heat generated during operation.
