Avalanche

Avalanche-rated rectifier diodes, or avalanche diodes, offer flexible solutions for applications that require converting alternating current to direct current. Littelfuse subsidiary IXYS makes a large variety of avalanche diodes optimized for use in systems that operate at frequencies in the range of 50–60 Hz. Each of these solid state switches mounts easily on a printed circuit board. Depending on their configurations avalanche-rated rectifier diodes can also serve as single- and three-phase bridges.
