Rectification passive

First, the designer should choose the type of rectification technology that is most appropriate for the application. The choice is whether to use passive rectification in which semiconductor rectifiers are used or synchronous recification in which power MOSFE B are placed in parallel with a smaller passive rectifier. Synchronous rectifiers are typically used in battery operated portable products where the added efficiency, usually an added two to eight percent, is important to extend the operating life of the battery or in applications where heat is important. In today s switching power supplies, passive rectifiers can dissipate 40 to 60 percent of the total losses within the power supply. Synchronous rectifiers affect only the conduction loss, which can be reduced by as much as 90 percent. [Pg.57]

For those applications where high efficiency is important, synchronous rectification may be used on the higher current (power) outputs. Synchronous rectifier circuits are much more complicated than the passive 2-leaded rectifier circuits. These are power MOSFE B, which are utilized in the reverse conduction direction where the anti-parallel intrinsic diode conducts. The MOSFET is turned on whenever the rectifier is required to conduct, thus reducing the forward voltage drop to less than O.f V. Synchronous rectifiers can be used only when the diode current flows in the forward direction, that is in continuousmode forward converters. [Pg.60]

Valve-Less Rectification Pumps, Fig. 19 Jet-type rectifiers. (A) A classical jet-pump generates In the secondary inlet a suction by entrainment into the primary nozzle jet. Due to jet inertia, some effect is retained even during absence of inflow in the passive half-period. [Pg.3409]
