31. AC Rectifier Diode Selection
Neha is designing a 24VAC to DC input stage for a control board.
The rectifier section can carry up to 1A current.
She needs a general-purpose rectifier diode to convert the AC input to DC.
This diode should safely handle the required forward current and have enough reverse voltage rating for reliable operation.
She decides to use an SMD diode in SMA package.
Help her select a suitable diode from DigiKey.
Make sure it is suitable for rectifier use and works reliably in industrial temperatures.
