Diodes - Rectifiers - Single

MURS120-13 is a rectifier diode. It has a metal oxide semiconductor, an anode and a cathode, and is one of the single diode rectifiers on the market. In an electronic circuit, the MURS120-13 diode can be used to control the flow of electricity in one direction, allowing current to flow through the circuit while blocking the back-flow of current.

Application Field

MURS120-13 rectifier diodes can be used in many different applications, such as switching circuits and voltage regulation. In switching circuits, a rectifier diode can be used to turn on or off the flow of current to a device or circuit. In voltage regulation, a rectifier diode can be used to stabilize the output voltage from a power supply. The MURS120-13 is also used in radio frequency (RF) circuits, where it helps to eliminate RF interference. Additionally, it is used in automotive applications, as well as in many industrial, consumer and military applications.

Working Principle

The MURS120-13 rectifier diode works on the principle of using a negative resistance to control the flow of electrons. The diode has a built-in negative resistance, which is the amount of voltage required to cause the diode to conduct electricity in the forward direction. Whenever the voltage across the diode is greater than this negative resistance, the diode is said to be in the forward mode and current will flow through the diode. Conversely, if the voltage across the diode is less than this negative resistance, the diode is said to be in the reverse mode, and current will not flow.

The MURS120-13 is a single diode and has only one cathode and one anode. When the cathode is grounded and the anode is connected to a positive voltage, the diode will conduct current in the forward direction and block the current in the reverse direction. This results in a rectified voltage, where only the positive peaks of the input signal are passed through to the output.

The MURS120-13 rectifier diode is a popular choice for electronic applications because it is very reliable and provides excellent performance. Due to its low forward voltage drop, the diode can handle high currents without increasing power dissipation and is perfect for circuits requiring very efficient energy conversion.
