RDK82485XXOO Application Field and Working Principle

The RDK82485XXOO is a kind of single-piece rectifier diode. Rectifier diodes are commonly used in many areas, such as power supplies, telecommunication, lightning protection and household appliances etc. The RDK82485XXOO in particular is a fast and low-power diode. It is mainly applied in the field of surface mount power rectifiers and have an added advantage of higher surge current capability.

To understand how the RDK82485XXOO works in detail, it is necessary to understand how diodes generally work, first. Generally, a diode is an electronic component that exhibits a two-directional current flow behavior. It permits the flow of current only when the applied voltage is above a certain threshold, and otherwise, current will not flow. This property of a diode, in essence, is the definition of the diode rectification process. This process is used to convert an input alternating current (AC) to direct current (DC).

The RDK82485XXOO rectifier diode has a forward conduction current, leakage current, and a reverse breakdown voltage. It also has a high switching speed. Being a single-piece rectifier, it is made with a single junction and p-n junction in a semiconductor material. This semiconductor material of the RDK82485XXOO allows the flow of more current at a lower voltage. Additionally, it contains a layer of metal oxide (MO) to reduce the risk of overheating the diode when the voltage is too much high.

The working principle behind the RDK82485XXOO rectifier diode is fairly simple and straightforward. When a positive voltage is applied to the anode of the diode, the current passes through this diode, but when a negative/reverse voltage is applied to the anode, current does not pass through the diode since the voltage is now lower than the threshold limit. This way, the RDK82485XXOO rectifier diode works to block the current flow in one direction and passes the current in the other direction.

In conclusion, the RDK82485XXOO single-piece rectifier diode offers great advantages in the field of surface mount power rectifiers. Its low power consumption, high switching speed and improved surge current capability make it an ideal choice for use in many applications. Its underlying principle of operation is also quite simple and straightforward, with current only passing through the diode when a positive voltage is applied to the anode while a negative voltage is blocked.
