This component’s efficiency makes it suitable for a wide variety of applications, such as emergency lighting, LED driving, fire security systems, energy metering and UPS designs, among others. Also, it is often found in air compressors, medical applications, industrial machines and many other related needs.

Working Principle

RM1500E-TP devices are based on the Schottky diode, a specially fabricated component that allows power to be fed into the component during a specific period. The RM1500E-TP comprises two diodes inside a thin package, having a component profile of 15 x 33 mm. The construction defines two positive-negative pins, the arrow that appears on the component indicates the direction in which electricity will be conducted. The output voltage is produced when a potential difference is created between its two pins, the higher voltage of the two will appear at the positive pin.

The RM1500E-TP feature a number of characteristics worth mentioning. First, it is constructed with a superior dielectric insulation layer between its two pin terminals, ensuring proper contact and avoiding any risks of electric arc or spark caused by electrical discharge. Second, these devices offer high efficiency and low forward voltage with high peak inverse voltage (PIV) values, granting protection from voltage spikes in circuits. Third, its robust construction takes into consideration that it is used in harsh environments, especially in the automotive industry, assuring reliability even when the temperatures changed abruptly forcing the component to use up to a maximum of 200°C of its operating temperature.

Conclusion

In conclusion, the RM1500E-TP devices are ideal for almost every application that requires rectifying, offering superior reliability, efficiency and compatibility with different voltage levels. Its robust construction ensures protection from spikes in AC/DC power sources and its light weight profile grants easier assembly. All these features make the RM1500E-TP a must-have component for almost every industrial and automotive electronics design.
