High Voltage Bridge Rectifier (20kV - 1A - 40ns)

Designed for applications where conventional rectifiers struggle to maintain clean switching at high frequencies, this high voltage bridge rectifier is optimized for extreme high-speed operation. Rated for up to 20 kV at 1 A, it delivers stable AC-to-DC conversion in demanding environments where both voltage stress and switching speed are critical.

What truly sets this rectifier apart is its exceptionally low reverse recovery time of just 40 ns. At this speed, stored charge is removed almost instantly, dramatically reducing switching losses, reverse recovery spikes, and unwanted RF ringing. This makes the device exceptionally well suited for circuits operating deep into the hundreds of kilohertz and well into the MHz range, where slower rectifiers would introduce excessive dissipation, noise, and waveform distortion.

In practical terms, this is one of the fastest high-voltage bridge rectifiers available on the open market today. Its ultra-fast recovery behavior enables clean rectification in resonant converters, high-frequency inverters, pulsed power systems, and experimental RF or plasma circuits where timing accuracy and low parasitic effects are essential.

Beyond speed, the rectifier is built for reliability under real-world stress. The robust mechanical construction and high surge current capability allow it to withstand transient overloads, while maintaining predictable behavior across a wide range of operating conditions. Whether used in advanced laboratory setups, industrial HV supplies, or experimental MHz-range power electronics, it provides consistent and repeatable performance.

If your application pushes into frequency domains where ordinary high-voltage rectifiers become the limiting factor, this component offers a decisive advantage—combining very high voltage capability with truly fast switching behavior.
