SR506HA0G

Diodes - Rectifiers - Single

The SR506HA0G is a single phase, silicondiode bridge rectifier module. It\'s used for converting AC inputs into DCoutputs and is mainly used in power supplies and direct current regulated apparatus.

The SR506HA0G is a full wave bridge rectifier with its two plate opposite to each other making a potential ring. The plates contain two layers, one is to transfer heat and the other is to absorb heat. Its main advantage is its low power consumption since its current rating ranges from 20 to 50 amperes.

Application field

The SR506HA0G has a wide range of applications including motor drives, electrodynamic motor control, switching, electrical control, and many more. Its high speed operation and low heat dissipation also makes it suitable for controlling high current, low voltage power supplies.

The SR506HA0G is also used in automotive applications, such as electric vehicle systems, power window, and power seat motors. It is also commonly used in various industrial systems, such as air-conditioning compressors, furnaces, and transformers, which require a full wave bridge rectifier to convert AC inputs into DC outputs.

Working Principle

To understand the working principle of the SR506HA0G, let\'s start by looking at how a single phase, full wave bridge rectifier works. The SR506HA0G consists of four identical diodes connected in a bridge configuration. Each diode is arranged so that when the applied AC voltage is positive, a current will flow through two of the diodes and when the applied AC voltage is negative, a current will flow through the other two diodes.

When the SR506HA0G is in operation, rectification occurs due to the alternation of inputs between the diodes. The DC output is formed by the combination of the outputs from the two pairs of diodes. As the AC voltage is changed from positive to negative, the current will flow from one output to the other, creating a continuous DC output.

The SR506HA0G also features a built-in over-voltage protection circuit that helps protect the rectifier from voltage transients and surges. The protection circuit will detect any abnormal output voltage condition and then cut off the current to prevent potential damage to the rectifier.

In summary, the SR506HA0G is a single phase, full wave rectifier module that is used to convert AC inputs into DC outputs, making it suitable for a variety of applications. Additionally, it features a built-in over-voltage protection circuit, making it a very safe and reliable component.
