NRVUB1660CTT4G

The NRVUB1660CTT4G belongs to the Diodes - Rectifiers - Arrays category, and it is an integrated diode bridge array with low voltage, low power dissipation and fast switching time. It is designed for power electronic control and rectification applications, such as access control systems, amplifier circuits and DC-DC converters. It is suitable for operations from +12v to -12v and capable of delivering up to 1.25A of current.

Application field and Working Principle

The NRVUB1660CTT4G is a diode bridge rectifier array that provides two bridge circuits connected in parallel. It is designed to be used in a variety of power applications like voltage protectors, relay switchers and the automation controllers. This device is capable of efficiently reversing AC to be DC, by having low forward voltage, low switching time and low power dissipation. It is ideal for rectifying single phase and three phase AC into steady DC without much additional circuitry or hardware.

The bridging form of the NRVUB1660CTT4G provides a much higher current handing capacity than the standard diodes, thus ensuring a more robust system with increased reliability and surge protection. This is why it is used in a variety of power electronic systems, such as China Railway Express (CRH) trains, access control systems, and power tool controllers. This device can also be used in DC-DC converters often found in mobile phones, modems, communication equipment, and inverters.

The working principle of the NRVUB1660CTT4G is based on the fact that it is a bridge circuit. It uses two pairs of diodes, when connected in parallel they form two halves of the bridge. When an AC current is passed between the two halves of the bridge, the reverse voltage of the supply prevents the current from carrying on through the other half of the bridge, thus rectifying the current. This process allows the bridging of the AC to steady DC, with the diodes working as a four quadrant multiplier.

In terms of mounting, the NRVUB1660CTT4G comes in a surface mount form, with its overall size being 0.4 x 0.4 inches. This makes it an ideal choice for implementing into circuit boards, as it requires minimal effort to install and mount. The temperature range it operates at is between -40°C to +85°C, making it an ideal option for many applications.

Conclusion

To summarise, the NRVUB1660CTT4G is a great solution for power electronic control and rectification applications. It is capable of efficiently reversing AC to DC, by having low forward voltage, low switching time and low power dissipation. This device can be used in DC-DC converters, China Railway Express(CRH) trains, access control systems, power tool controllers, amplifiers and many other systems. Its low size and low temperature range make it an ideal candidate for most applications.
