ON Semiconductor's SS24 Diodes are Schottky diodes designed for rectification and power supply applications. Its forward voltage drop, fast switching speed, and high efficiency make it suitable for a wide variety of electronic circuits, including power supplies, voltage clamps, solar panels, and automotive electronics.
Function:
SS24 diodes are designed for rectification purposes, allowing current to flow in only one direction (anode to cathode) with a low forward voltage drop. It is commonly used to convert alternating current (AC) to direct current (DC) in power circuits.
parameter:
SS24 diodes are characterized by the following parameters:
1. Maximum forward voltage drop (Vf): SS24 diodes typically have a maximum forward voltage drop of about 0.45 volts when conducting current in the forward direction.
2. Reverse breakdown voltage (Vr): SS24 diodes typically have a reverse breakdown voltage of around 40 volts. This means that if the voltage across the diode is reversed by more than 40 volts, the diode may break down and conduct in reverse.
3. Maximum Forward Current (If): The SS24 diode can handle a maximum forward current of 2 Amps for medium power applications.
4. Switching Speed: The SS24 diode has a fast switching speed, allowing it to respond quickly to changes in applied voltage or current.
feature:
SS24 diodes have several properties that make them a popular choice in a variety of applications:
1. High efficiency: SS24 diode has low forward voltage, high power efficiency and low power loss.
2. Low Leakage Current: The diode has a low reverse leakage current, ensuring minimal power loss in the off state.
3. Fast recovery time: SS24 diodes have a fast recovery time which helps them to switch quickly and efficiently.
4. High temperature range: SS24 diodes are designed to operate over a wide temperature range, making them suitable for applications requiring reliable performance under varying temperature conditions.
