Rectifier diode are two-terminal semi-conductor devices which can be found in different application circuits, being the PMEG2005EH,115 one of the most used in the market. This device belongs to the group of single diodes, its name indicating the manufacturer, application field and working principle.

Despite its small size and light weight, this diode has an impressive maximum voltage rating of 200 volts, withstanding both repetitive and non-repetitive peak reverse voltages. It also presents low forward voltage drop values, so it can be used in tight space and surface mount applications. This diode is also suitable for use with high frequency rectification due to its low capacitance values.

The PMEG2005EH,115 features three different application fields to draw from. First, one can use the diode in rectifier applications, in which they are used as a main component in the creation of a device to convert alternating current (AC) into direct current (DC). This conversion is obtained thanks to the operational characteristic of the diode, which works selectively in one direction.

Second, the PMEG2005EH,115 can be used in hybrid circuits intended to control the current DC being fed through the device, which is particularly useful in order to create power supplies. Finally, the PMEG2005EH,115 can be employed as a regulator, having the particularity of dropping the voltage to a determined level. This characteristic is attributed to its Zener voltage behavior, allowing for the use of the rectifier diode as a self-regulator.

Describing the operational characteristics of the PMEG2005EH,115, it is important to first identify the existing type of junction in the device: the high conductivity Schottky Barrier Rectifier. This allows current to flow in one direction, blocking it from moving through the diode in the opposite direction. Due to its low junction capacitance, this semi-conductor device must be used at frequencies of 1MHz or above to take advantage of its fast switching behavior.

Interesting considerations of this diode are found within its maximum ratings. Its reverse current admits values up to 25mA, while its forward voltage drop varies between 0.7 and 0.9 volts, depending on the condition of the device itself. These values, although minimal, do not affect the simulations of the PMEG2005EH,115.

Benefiting from the aforementioned characteristics, the PMEG2005EH,115 is suitable for a wide range of flyback and for off-line DC-DC converter applications. Its capability to take control of any overshoot voltage adds further practicality to the device, as well as the ability to adjust the current’s response to load changes.

Finally, another attractive quality of the PMEG2005EH,115 is its protection against thermal, electric and reliability failures. Some of these include an over-temperature protection which produces a self-recovery process once the conditions are back to their normal state, as well as an overcurrent threshold towards the assurance of reliability in the device’s operation.

In conclusion, the PMEG2005EH,115 diode is a very capable and reliable semi-conductor device. It combines the proper characteristics for being used in rectifier and DC control applications, thus making it an ideal choice for both household and industrial settings. Additionally, its inherent features regarding protection against different types of failure give superiority to this diode over other models of the same type.
