And here it is, modelled using LTSpice. It is the same circuit as the classic simple precision rectifier (set to pass the negative half-sine), but with the non-inverting input of the op-amp connected ...

February 6, 2013 – Mouser Electronics, Inc. is now stocking the award-winning PowIRaudio™ IR43xM audio amplifier family from International Rectifier. These high-performance audio amps were selected as ...

Alpha and Omega Semiconductor has announced a family of active diodes which can reduce the 1.2V forward drop of 600V bridge rectifiers. “Both products are self-powered from the AC line and do not ...

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 ...

Vishay Intertechnology VSH unveiled two new 1200 V FRED Pt Hyperfast rectifiers, namely VS-E7MH0112-M3 and VS-E7MH0112HM3c, in its Gen 7 platform. Notably, both devices come in an SMA (DO-214AC) ...

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 ...
