Diodes - Bridge Rectifiers are semiconductor devices that are used to convert alternating current (AC) power into direct current (DC) power. The device is made of a bridge of four diodes, commonly referred to as a ‘full-wave rectifier’. The process of conversion takes place as ‘bridging’ the four diodes allow current to flow in either direction, depending on the direction of the input AC, resulting in a unidirectional current output. This device can be used in a broad range of electronics, from simple power supplies to complex computer equipment.

The VS-36MB20A is a particular diode bridge rectifier which is designed to bridge an AC power source of 3.6V, 20A and rectify it into a DC output. It is suitable for power supplies and other electronics that contain industrial or communications equipment as well as for AC voltage regulating, motor speed control and other general use. It can handle varying power inputs and its four diodes bridge configuration offers superior performance, with a maximum frequency of 200kHz.

The VS-36MB20A has a low forward voltage drop, a fast recovery time, and a low-leakage current. It is made up of four fast-recovery rectifier diodes, each with a 12A maximum continuous reverse current at 25°C. They have a maximum peak forward surge current of 110A, and a total recovery time of ≤ 10μs. These features make the VS-36MB20A rectifier suitable for a wide range of high-frequency switching applications.

The VS-36MB20A rectifier operates according to the following mechanism: when alternating current is fed into the device, the bridge formed by the four diodes allows the current to pass through in both directions, depending on the direction of input AC. When a positive cycle occurs, one of the two diodes point seizes to conduct the current in one direction, while the other three remain off. Conversely, during a negative cycle, the other two diodes will seize to conduct the current and the first diode will remain off. In this fashion, the device operates as a full-wave rectifier, converting the AC power into DC power.

The VS-36MB20A diode bridge is well suited for a variety of applications and has a long life expectancy. It is designed to be robust and can easily handle fluctuating or variable power inputs. Additionally, its four diodes bridge configuration means it can be used in high-frequency switching applications with little concern for reduced performance. Overall, VS-36MB20A is an extremely economic and efficient bridging rectifier for use in industrial, communication and other applications.
