UPS180E3/TR13 Application Field

UPS180E3/TR13 is a fast recovery rectifier. It is specially designed for use in high-efficiency,motor-drive, solar inverters and other high power electronics applications. The maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage is up to 180 V, which makes it suitable for wide input voltage applications and makes it a preferable choice over other devices. Moreover, UPS180E3/TR13 provides high-performance operation with low forward voltage drop, fast switching time and high surge forward current capability.

UPS180E3/TR13 Working Principle

The working principle of UPS180E3/TR13 starts with the constant input voltage applied to the anode end. As the voltage increases, the dynamics of the electric field across the diode increases. At this point, when the applied voltage is greater than the breakdown voltage, electrons are compressed and increase the current flow. The current flows from the anode to cathode, the plane current is flowing from the anode to the cathode, pushing the plane electrons to the cathode and decreasing the plane current flow. This process is known as the "reverse conduction" of the diode. The plane current remains in dynamic equilibrium until the applied voltage is less than the breakdown voltage. When the plane current is zero, the forward current flow continues.
