MURA210T3G

The MURA210T3G rectifier diode is a single-phase forward-only diode with a very low mean forward recovery time (MFRT) and low leakage current. It is typically used in high-efficiency power electronics applications such as motor drives and power supplies. Its very low MFRT enables faster switching and improved efficiency, which can result in lower system costs and improved overall performance.

In operation, the MURA210T3G’s anode terminal is connected to the positive side of the power source, while the cathode terminal is connected to the negative side. When the anode voltage exceeds the cathode voltage, the diode will conduct and allow current to flow from anode to cathode. This is known as forward conduction or rectification. Once the anode voltage is less than or equal to the cathode voltage, the diode ceases conducting and no longer allows current to flow, until the voltage across the terminals again exceeds the rectified threshold. This process is known as reverse blocking, as it prevents current from passing in the opposite direction.

The MURA210T3G also features a very low forward voltage drop (VF), typically 0.45 – 0.7V, compared to 1.4V for a standard diode. This reduces power loss and helps make the diode more efficient, especially in high-frequency switching applications. In addition, the MURA210T3G has an ultra-low leakage current (IR) of up to 0.05uA. This improves system accuracy and decreases power consumption from current leakage.

The low VF and IR of MURA210T3G rectifier diodes make them excellent choices for high current and voltage applications. Thanks to its very low MFRT and VF, the MURA210T3G is ideal for use in high-efficiency AC/DC rectification, frequency conversion and motor drives. It can also be used in UPS (uninterruptible power supplies) and medical equipment applications.

In summary, the MURA210T3G rectifier diode is an excellent choice for applications where low-power loss, high-efficiency and low MFRT are desired. It is a single-phase forward-only diode that features very low forward voltage drop (VF) and leakage current (IR), ideal for high current and voltage applications such as motor drives and UPS. Its low MFRT enables faster switching and improved efficiency, resulting in lower system costs and improved overall performance.
