The diode can also be utilized in DC current protection, precision output circuits, etc.

Working Principle

Generally speaking, a diode acts as a barrier for the flow of current, allowing current to flow in one direction and blocking the flow of current in the other direction. PMEG3010EGWJ’s operating principle revolves around the P and N type material within the diode. When a P type material is brought into contact with an N type material, a very small area of material known as a depletion layer is created. This layer consists of negative charges from the N material and positive charges from the P material. The contact of the two materials creates a field in which positive and negative charges repel each other and reduces the flow of current. The combination of these two materials makes the diode a non-conductive device in one direction and a conductive device in the other direction.

The anode side of the diode is composed of N-type material and is therefore positively charged, thus blocking current flow. Therefore, in order for a current to flow through the diode, the voltage of the anode side must be greater than the voltage at the cathode side. Also, as the current flow increases, the current flow of PMEG3010EGWJ increases linearly. This makes the diode very efficient in controlling high voltage or current and it is ideal for high-quality rectification. Additionally, because the diode allows for a controlled current flow, the diode is effective in converting direct current (DC) to alternating current (AC) or back again, leading to its wide use in many electrical and electronic applications.
