High-voltage diodes have applications in various fields. For example, in power supply modules, they are used to rectify high-voltage AC signals and provide stable DC output. Furthermore, in switching power supplies, high-voltage diodes effectively prevent reverse current from damaging switching devices. In electronic protection circuits, they are also commonly used to suppress overvoltages and protect sensitive components.
High-voltage diodes are typically manufactured using materials such as silicon (Si) or gallium nitride (GaN). Because the structure and material selection of a high-voltage diode affect its performance, precise control of the manufacturing process is crucial. With technological advancements, many new types of high-voltage diodes have emerged, offering higher efficiency and better thermal management capabilities.
