Working Principle

The RGP10M-7008E3/54 single rectifier diode is a semiconductor device that uses PN junction for semiconductor conduction. When a reverse voltage is applied to the diode, the diode does not conduct any current. When a forward voltage is applied to the diode, an electric current will flow through the diode, depending on the amount of forward voltage applied. The amount of current that flows through the diode will also depend on the amount of voltage applied.

The rectifier diode typically works in the reverse breakdown mode where the current through the diode is limited, allowing the voltage across the diode to increase. As the voltage across the diode increases, the current through the diode decreases.

The single rectifier diode also has a peak reverse voltage rating, which determines the maximum reverse voltage that can be applied to the diode. The peak reverse voltage rating also defines the maximum reverse voltage that the diode can withstand without failing.
