VS-MBRD340TRR-M3 diode is one of the common rectifiers current nowadays, and it falls in the category of single rectifiers. Its application field and working principle will be introduced in this article for a better understanding about the device.

application field

VS-MBRD340TRR-M3 diode is suitable for the applications that need high surge current rating and low forward voltage. It mainly applies to high current rectifiers, switching mode power supplies, and other pulsed load applications by providing excellent forward and reverse recovery characteristics. In particular, its surge current rating is 3.4A and it works fine even when the wavelength is high. Hence, it is suitable for battery powered applications and equipment like surge protectors where large current flows occur. What’s more, it is suitable for LEDs and some other lamps where high temperature environment is required.

Working principle

In general, rectifying diodes are the most important and widely used electronic components. VS-MBRD340TRR-M3 diode falls in the category of single rectifiers and it is suitable for applications where rectified currents are alternates between positive and negative directions. Basically, the diode is a semiconductor device which allows current flow in only one direction. It consists of an anode connected to a cathode, with the positive anode side connected to a tap and the negative cathode side connected to the other tap. It acts as a switch when energy is applied to the positive anode side, the electrons flow from the negative cathode side and crosses the PN junction. When a voltage or current is applied to the diode, it will be switched on and will only allow current to pass in its direction. On the contrary, when the voltage or current is not applied, the diode is switched off and will not allow any current to pass.

In summary, VS-MBRD340TRR-M3 diode is one of the most commonly used rectifiers nowadays. It applies for battery powered applications and high current rectifiers. Its surge current rating is 3.4A and it works well even in a high temperature environment. It follows the principle of single rectifiers, which allows current flow in one direction only. So it works differently when a voltage or current is applied or not.
