TS35P05GHD2G

Diodes - Bridge Rectifiers have been around for a long time and have found a place in countless electronic applications. The TS35P05GHD2G is a great example of this type of device and is worth a closer look.

The TS35P05GHD2G is a bridge rectifier capable of operating at current ratings up to 5A, while having an operating voltage range of 35V to 100V. One of the most attractive features of this device is its low forward voltage drop of just 1.0V at a current of 5A. This low forward voltage drop allows for higher efficiency in the device, and therefore, more power out of a given power input.

The main use of the TS35P05GHD2G is in power switching applications and motor control. As it is a bridge rectifier, it can be used to convert AC to DC or to switch between DC sources. It is also commonly used in automotive applications where reliability and ruggedness are important.

The TS35P05GHD2G is available in TO-220AB package and the device consists of four rectifying diodes connected in a bridge configuration. Two diodes are connected in series between each of the two terminals, while the other two are connected in parallel across the other two terminals. When this configuration is powered by alternating current (AC) it will rectify the voltage, thus converting it to a direct current (DC).

The working principle of the TS35P05GHD2G is simple. When AC voltage is applied, the two diodes connected in series in each of the two terminals, the anode and the cathode, will conduct when the voltage is above the forward threshold voltage. Thus allowing for the conversion of AC to DC. When the voltage drops below the forward threshold voltage, the two diodes connected in series will become reverse biased and will block any current from passing through.

Another advantage of the TS35P05GHD2G is its capability to switch between two DC sources. This can be achieved by connecting two DC sources to the anode and cathode of the two terminals. When positive voltage is applied to the anode and negative voltage is applied to the cathode, the two diodes connected in series will become forward biased and will let the current pass through. When the two DC sources are switched, the two diodes connected in series will become reverse biased and will block any current from passing through, thus allowing the two DC sources to be switched.

The TS35P05GHD2G is an extremely useful and versatile component that can be used in a variety of applications. Its low forward voltage drop of 1.0V at 5A allows for an extremely efficient operation and allows for more power to be output from a given power input. Its ability to switch between two DC sources also allows for a number of applications including motor control and power switching. Finally, its rugged and reliable construction makes it suitable for automotive applications.
