Working Principle

The VS-12FL100S05 uses the principle of p-n junction rectification, in which two doped semiconductor regions of opposite conductivity type are joined together. When the diode is forward biased, a current passes through the device. The current is proportional to the voltage applied. When voltage is reversed, no current passes through the device. This "on/off" operation is called rectification and makes the module suitable for use in switching applications.

The module also offers excellent thermal stability, meaning that it can operate at higher temperatures for longer periods of time, making it a good choice for power supplies and automotive applications. The low power loss and fast switching speeds of the device also make it suitable for high-frequency signal isolation, current sensing and protection.

In conclusion, the VS-12FL100S05 is a versatile rectifier module suitable for a wide range of applications. The device offers low forward voltage drop, excellent high temperature operation, and fast switching performance, making it one of the most popular general-purpose rectifier modules on the market.
