SCS230KE2C

Introduction

SCS230KE2C is a diode array designed to provide a bridge rectifier in power supply applications. While they are primarily used in AC-DC converters, they can also be used in DC-DC converters, EMI filters, and pulse transformers. This article will provide an introduction to the application fields, working principle, and specifications for the SCS230KE2C.

Application Fields

The SCS230KE2C is a two-pole bridge rectifier. It is designed for use in AC-DC converters as a bridge rectifier, allowing the two poles of the bridge to be connected directly to the output of the converter. It can also be used in circuits that require a bridge rectifier with low capacitance. SCS230KE2Cs can be found in power supplies, inverters, charging circuits, and automotive electronic systems.

The SCS230KE2C can also be used in DC-DC converters. This allows a voltage to be stepped down or up depending on the requirements of the circuit. The bridge rectifier can also be used in EMI filters, which reduce the amount of electromagnetic interference generated by the system. Additionally, it can be used in pulse transformers, where the bridge rectifier can provide a precise pulse to the transformer.

Working Principle

The SCS230KE2C is a two-pole bridge rectifier. The two poles of the rectifier are connected to the output of the AC-DC converter, allowing the converter to provide the bridge with the alternating current that it needs. The bridge rectifier then converts the AC into DC by passing current through the two alternate diodes, creating a DC output.

In DC-DC converters, the SCS230KE2C can be used to step up or down the voltage depending on the requirements of the circuit. In EMI filters, the bridge rectifier can be used to reduce the amount of electromagnetic interference generated by the system. In pulse transformers, the bridge rectifier can be used to precisely deliver a pulse to the transformer.

Specifications

The SCS230KE2C is available in a variety of packages, including SOP8, SOIC-8, and DIP-7. The operating temperature range for the SCS230KE2C is -40°C to +85°C. The maximum forward voltage drop for each diode is 1.2V. The forward current is 5A, with a reverse current of 5 A. The peak reverse voltage is 200V.

Conclusion

The SCS230KE2C is a two-pole bridge rectifier designed to provide a bridge rectifier for AC-DC converters. It can also be used in DC-DC converters, EMI filters, and pulse transformers.
