The diode has a maximum continuous reverse voltage of 600V, and supports a peak reverse voltage of 600V dc. The diode has a maximum thermal dissipation rating of 1.5W, with a maximum temperature rating of 105 °C.

Working Principle

The UF1AHR0G rectifier diode is a single semiconductor unit that uses a p-type and n-type semiconductor base to separate the two electrical pathways. When reverse voltage is applied, the diode is in a non-conductive state. When an appropriate forward voltage is applied to the diode, it allows current to flow through it in one direction. The diode behaves like a switch, allowing current to flow in one direction and blocking it in the opposite direction. This is known as a ‘rectifier’, since it allows current to flow in one direction and not the other.

The UF1AHR0G rectifier diode has a low forward voltage drop, which enhances its breakdown voltage and leak current capabilities. This allows the diode to handle higher power levels while still providing a low forward voltage to its load. This makes it suitable for a variety of applications, such as automotive, industrial equipment, and consumer electronics.

The UF1AHR0G rectifier diode is a robust and reliable device that is suitable for a wide range of applications. Its low forward voltage drop, high surge capability, and UL certification make it an ideal choice for applications in automotive, industrial, and consumer electronics. It has a number of advantageous characteristics, including its environmentally friendly design, maximum thermal dissipation rating, and excellent temperature ratings.
