1. What is a single rectifier diode?
A single rectifier diode is an electronic component used to convert alternating current (AC) to direct current (DC), typically used in power supplies, chargers, and other circuits that require DC power.
-
2. What is forward voltage drop?
Forward voltage drop refers to the voltage drop generated when the current passes through a diode when it is conducting. The forward voltage drop of silicon rectifier diodes is usually around 0.7V, while the forward voltage drop of Schottky diodes is usually lower, between 0.2V and 0.3V.
-
3. What is the maximum reverse voltage (PIV) of a rectifier diode?
The Peak Inverse Voltage (PIV) is the maximum reverse voltage that a diode can withstand. When selecting a diode, the PIV must be higher than the maximum reverse voltage in the circuit, usually twice or more the input voltage.
-
4. How to determine if the rectifier diode is damaged?
Use a multimeter to measure the forward and reverse resistance of a diode. If the diode exhibits low impedance or high impedance in both directions, it may have been damaged. Under normal circumstances, there should be low impedance when conducting in the forward direction, and high impedance when conducting in the reverse direction.
