Diodes are electrical components that allow electric current to flow through them in one direction, while blocking the current from flowing in the opposite direction. This mission is usually accomplished by introducing an electrode junction within the diode, constraining electric current to flow through it in one direction.

A single diode is a basic and appropriate option for many low-power applications and simple rectification circuit needs. Single diode rectifiers, such as the SS5P10HM3_A/I, are ideal for end-products needing to use a simply designed, cost-effective rectification solution. This rectifier comprises of a single 200 V power Schottky diode, providing a low forward voltage drop and low power dissipation.

Typical applications— due to the SS5P10HM3_A/I\'s ability to handle up to 5 A and 200 V— include: switch mode power supplies (SMPS), consumer electronics, power tools, telecom and computer equipment. This diode can also be found in low-voltage motor drives, car audio systems and power line EMI/RFI filters.

The operating temperature range of the SS5P10HM3_A/I is -40°C to 125°C, offering more flexibility to designers who require the part to perform in various temperature environments. It has a lead (Pb)-free plated terminal finish, meeting important international environmental regulations. This diode\'s package can also provide superior re-flow profiles along with excellent thermal performance. In addition, optimized on-state performance, minimum reverse leakage and low forward drop are assured when this rectifier is operated.

The working principle of the SS5P10HM3_A/I single diode rectifier is simple. When the AC voltage is zero and the polarity of the voltage is correct for forward biasing, current flows through the diode. The diode is like a switch that is connected when the AC voltage is applied. The semiconductor acts like a short circuit from the cathode node to the anode node. The voltage drop across the diode is approximately 0.1 to 0.2 volts and will vary depending on the temperature. As the current rises and approaches the diode’s rated power dissipation, the diode will slowly turn on as the junction reaches it\'s forward breakover voltage, thus avoiding any safe operating area damage. The power dissipation of the diode also plays an important role in the working of the SS5P10HM3_A/I rectifier.

A diode rectifier circuit, such as the SS5P10HM3_A/I, will generally be made up of an AC transformer and the diode, as well as other components depending on the type of application. This type of circuit will receive an input AC current at one side, with the rectifier carrying out the process of conversion to DC by using the characteristics of a diode—blocking the reverse current flow. The diodes that are used in rectifier circuits are capable of conducting current in one direction only. This current flowing from the AC mains to the diode is then converted to a unidirectional DC voltage by switching off the diodes for a fraction of a cycle. This fractional part is then stored, resulting in the required DC power. The output waveform for single and three phase full wave rectifier versions looks like a series of positive and negative pulses, where the pulsating DC waveform will be free from any fluctuations in AC input voltage.

The SS5P10HM3_A/I single diode rectifier is a cost effective and easy to use solution for applications requiring simple rectification, while remaining capable of operating at high voltages and high temperatures. The device is suitable for a variety of customer applications needing straight forward AC to DC conversion and rectification, featuring a low forward voltage drop, low power consumption and excellent thermal performance.
