VS-25ETS10STRL-M3

Diodes - Rectifiers - Single

VS-25ETS10STRL-M3 is a single rectifier module, which is used in applications that require high-current rectification. It has a current rating of 15A and voltage ratings of 300 V and 800 V, with a maximum surge current rating of 4500 A. The module consists of two silicon rectifier diodes connected in series; the two diodes are reverse-biased and thus the maximum be voltage across them is the forward voltage of the diode.

The module has an ultra-low forward voltage drop, which is maintained even at high temperatures. It also has good thermal conductivity and resistance to vibration and shock, making it suitable for use in harsh environments. The module is available in two packages, one with a standard THT header and one with a DIP header.

The working principle of the VS-25ETS10STRL-M3 is simple. When the voltage across the diode junction is reversed, the diode is rendered non-conductive, blocking the current flow and preventing the voltage from rising. This protection is known as reverse blocking and is provided by the VS-25ETS10STRL-M3. When forward biased, the diode behaves like a closed switch, allowing the current to flow from anode to cathode.

The VS-25ETS10STRL-M3 is used in a variety of applications that require high-current rectification, such as motor drives, power supplies, LED lighting, and medical imaging equipment. It is also suitable for use in consumer electronics applications, such as TVs, game consoles, and computers. The module is RoHS compliant and is rated to operate in temperatures up to 125°C.
