Working Principle

The MBRF20H100CTG diode bridges are primarily used to provide full-wave rectification. During positive input peaks, the top half rectifier of the diode array is switched on and allows current to flow through one side of the load, while the negative peak turns the bottom half of the array on, providing current flow through the other side of the load. In this way, the full-wave rectification is achieved, with a current half-cycle for each side of the load.
