Diodes - Rectifiers - ArraysThe VS-MBR40L15CW-N3 is a high power diode array for rectifying AC to DC conversion in electronic circuits. It is a four-element common cathode diode array that can be connected in parallel to form one bridge rectifier. The diode array has a maximum operating current of 40 amps, a maximum operating voltage of 15 volts, and power dissipation of 400 watts. The low forward voltage drop of the VS-MBR40L15CW-N3 makes it suitable for high power conversion applications.The VS-MBR40L15CW-N3 is a common cathode diode array configuration, meaning that one end of each of the four diodes is connected to a common connection, or reference point. The diode array is connected in parallel to the AC power source and provides an uninterrupted current flow in a single direction. This arrangement allows for substantial increases in peak current and voltage handling capabilities.VS-MBR40L15CW-N3 applications include DC motor control, battery charging systems, lightning protection, UPS systems, switching power supplies, and LED drivers. Typical application examples include servo motor control, DC motor control, LED lighting systems, solar inverters, and AC/DC adapter control.The diode array has a low forward voltage drop that helps reduce heat dissipation and prolongs operation life. The VS-MBR40L15CW-N3 is constructed with UL listed ceramic over-molded plastic and is flame retardant. This diode array is also available in an ultra-low profile design that is suitable for applications where space is limited.The VS-MBR40L15CW-N3 can be used in either a series or parallel configuration. In a series configuration, the device acts as an electrical switch to control the current flow by allowing the current to flow in one direction only. This configuration is ideal when precise control of current is required. In a parallel configuration, the device acts as a voltage stabilizer by reducing variations in output voltage.The working principle of the VS-MBR40L15CW-N3 is based on the basic functionality of a diode. A diode is an electronic device that conducts current in a single direction. The VS-MBR40L15CW-N3 is composed of four diodes,each diode has a terminals connected to an anode, and a common connection, or cathode. When an AC voltage is applied to the two terminals, a current flows from one anode to the cathode. This current flow is rectified, since the current can only flow in one direction.The advantages of the VS-MBR40L15CW-N3 include high current and voltage handling, low forward voltage drop, and the availability of an ultra-low profile design. The diode array is Pb-free, RoHS compliant, and offers high efficiency and reliability. The VS-MBR40L15CW-N3 is an ideal choice for high power conversion applications requiring low forward voltage drop, high current, and voltage handling capabilities.
