Everyone loves a full-wave bridge rectifier, but there’s no denying that they aren’t 100% efficient due to the diode voltage ...

DILAS announces its highest power conduction cooled, quasi-continuous wave (QCW) stack array to date. Available in configurations of 100W per bar or 150W per bar, specific combinations of wavelength ...

A major cause of losses in a conventional power supply using a 50/60-Hz transformer is the bridge rectifier. This article shows how to build a “greener” rectifier, substantially reducing losses by ...

This lab seeks to illustrate the fundamental operation of uncontrolled rectifier circuits. The waveforms associated with these circuits are visualized using simulation and experimentation. The circuit ...

Although they are usually limited to only two leads, rectifiers and diodes play an important role in power electronic systems. In 2011, many types of rectifier/diodes were introduced, from bridge ...

FLOWN over here by the, International Rectifier Co. (Great Britain) Ltd. for display at the exhibition is one of the largest silicon rectifier stacks, in existence, pictured above. So, 64 years ago, ...

APF are series of fiber coupled QCW diode stacks, with high peak power and high efficiency. Fibers are easily replaceable in the field, making these stacks ideal sources for medical and industrial ...

In the realm of modern electronics, semiconductor diodes have emerged as fundamental components with diverse applications. One of their pivotal roles lies in the fields of rectification and voltage ...
