RMB2S-E3/45

Diodes - Bridge Rectifiers have numerous application fields, but their most popular application is to convert alternating current (AC) to direct current (DC). Such a circuit consists of four diodes arranged in a bridge rectifier configuration. The RMB2S-E3/45 is one such type of bridge rectifier. It has two terminals, an anode and a cathode, and converts AC voltage to a single DC voltage.

The RMB2S-E3/45 bridge rectifier is designed for use as a stand-alone, full-wave rectification circuit. It can be used in applications such as battery chargers and DC motor control circuits, where output voltage and current levels must be consistent and dependable. This bridge rectifier is UL-listed, making it suitable for commercial and residential applications.

The working principle of the RMB2S-E3/45 bridge rectifier is relatively straightforward, though the components it contains are sophisticated. When AC current enters the bridge, it passes through two diodes in a single branch and is then shared by two diodes in the other branch. This creates a negative voltage across the bridge, making the bridge an effective full-wave rectification circuit. The bridge then rectifies the AC current and outputs it as single, DC voltage.

In order to ensure efficiency, the internal resistance of the RMB2S-E3/45 bridge rectifier is kept at a minimum. As a result, the peak-current capability of the bridgeRectifier is able to reach up to 3 Amps and a surge withstand rating of 20 Amps. This makes the RMB2S-E3/45 bridge rectifier an ideal choice for high-power applications. Additionally, the bridge offers an operating voltage range of up to 800 Volts, making it suitable for a range of applications.

The bridge rectifier also benefits from built-in safeguards that help protect it against possible damage due to surplus current. The device’s soft-start feature limits the initial inrush current to less than one-half of the rated current. This helps prevent premature aging and failure of the RMB2S-E3/45 bridge rectifier.

As bridge rectifiers of the RMB2S-E3/45 type are becoming increasingly popular in applications such as battery chargers and motor control systems, the device is becoming an increasingly attractive option. Furthermore, as the RMB2S-E3/45 bridge rectifier is UL-listed, it can be used for commercial and residential applications. And with its internal resistance being designed for maximum efficiency and its soft-start feature providing protection against surge currents, the RMB2S-E3/45 bridge rectifier is a reliable and effective choice for those in need of full-wave rectification.
