RL103-N-2-2-BP Application Field and Working Principle

A diode is a semiconductor device that conducts current in one direction, blocking current from flowing in the other direction. It is a single, two-terminal PN junction diode, intended for use as a rectifier in power supplies and other circuits and applications. The RL103-N-2-2-BP is an example of a single diode rectifier specifically designed for telecommunication and switching power supplies.

Application Field

The RL103-N-2-2-BP is designed for use in high power and high voltage applications such as telecommunication and switching power supplies. It can be used as both a rectifier and as an electronic switch. It can also be used as an inrush current limiter in these applications. Due to its low forward voltage drop, it is often used in high currents DC-DC converters that require frequent switch on and off.

Working Principle

Diode rectifiers function as a one-way electric switch that only allows current to flow in one direction. This single diode rectifier, the RL103-N-2-2-BP, does this with a PN junction diode. A PN junction diode is a two-terminal semiconductor device constructed of two regions of oppositely doped semiconductor material that creates a barrier that prevents current to flow in one direction. To create a rectifier for telecommunication and switching power supplies, two RL103-N-2-2-BP are connected in a full wave configuration. When connected in this configuration, they prevent reverse current, while still allowing current to flow in one direction. When used as a rectifier, the device has high efficiency and low voltage losses. The RL103-N-2-2-BP can also be used as an inrush current limiter, by connecting a surge suppressor in series to the diode. The surge suppressor assists in controlling voltage and current transients in the system.

Conclusion

The RL103-N-2-2-BP is a single, two-terminal PN junction rectifier designed for use in telecommunication and switching power supplies. It works as a one-way valve ensuring that current flows in only one direction, and is often used as an inrush current limiter. It has low voltage losses, making it ideal for high current applications and DC-DC converters. By connecting two RL103-N-2-2-BP in a full wave configuration, it creates a rectifier with high efficiency and low voltage losses.
