Working Principles: The VS-16CTU04PBF operates on the principle of rectification, converting alternating current (AC) into direct current (DC). When a positive voltage is applied to the anode with respect to the cathode, the diode conducts, allowing current to flow in the forward direction. Conversely, when a negative voltage is applied, the diode blocks the current flow.

Detailed Application Field Plans: - Power supply units - Motor drives - Welding equipment - Uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) - Inverters

Detailed and Complete Alternative Models: - 1N5819: Lower forward current but faster recovery time - MUR410: Higher forward current and lower forward voltage drop
