Diodes - Rectifiers - Single is an electronic device composed of two terminals and four layers, in which the anode is connected to the p-type material and the cathode is connected to the n-type material. It is widely used in rectifiers, converters, modulation circuit and power electronics circuits. The RR264MM-400TR is a 400 V Single Diode rectifier which is widely used in the market.

Application Field

RR264MM-400TR has a wide application range. It is mainly applied as a rectifier in power switching arranges or motors, such as voltage regulator, DC sources, uninterruptible power supply, overcurrent protection, servo-motor, etc.. Furthermore, it is also used as a forward conduction diode in various types of amplifier circuits and various types of converter circuit’s output.

Working Principle

The RR264MM-400TR consists of a silicon junction diode which is connected to the two basic semiconductor materials, p-type and n-type. The cathode is connected to the n-type material, which has more free electrons than holes. The anode is connected to p-type material, which has more holes than free electrons. When a forward bias is applied to the rectifier, the holes from p-type material are filled with the free electrons from the n-type material, forming the depletion layer and allowing current to flow. A voltage drop is generally seen between the anode and the cathode when current flow through the diode, acting as a rectifier.

When a reverse bias is applied to the rectifier, the holes in the n-type material will be filled with the free electrons in the p-type material, forming the depletion layer, which prevents the current from passing through the diode. The phenomenon is called reverse blocking. RR264MM-400TR provides a fast turn-off switching capability due to its high reverse voltage and enables fast current circulation upon forward bias.

Advantages

RR264MM-400TR has many advantages compared to other rectifiers. It requires only low forward voltage drop, low reverse current leakage and High reliability. It has a high reverse voltage and high current capability as well, which allows it to be suitable for high voltage applications.
