Working Principle

A single rectifier diode is a two-terminal electronic device that allows the current to flow in only one direction. It is made up of two parts: anode and cathode. When forward biased, that is anode voltage is more than the cathode voltage, the diode conducts current and a voltage drop occurs across it. On reverse biasing, the current is blocked and the diode appears like an open switch.

The construction of SK53C R7G rectifier diode is based on epitaxial silicon. It has a low forward voltage drop of around 1.15V and a high load current capability of up to 20A. In high temperature and dynamic dv/dt applications, this diode offers very good performance. Moreover, it is AEC-Q101 qualified for automotive applications.
