What is a Fast Rectifier? Defination of a Fast Rectifier.

Fast Recovery Diode is a semiconductor device which possesses short reverse recovery time, very low switching losses and low noise turn-off switching for rectification purpose at high frequency. Rectification is the most popular use for diodes. Rectifiers have many uses and are often found serving as components of high-voltage direct current power transmission systems and DC power supplies. Fast rectifiers convert alternating current (AC) to direct current (DC). Fast diodes are optimized to accept high dynamic stress (fast transition from conducting to blocking state). However, they generally have higher conduction losses than rectifier diodes. For every switch family (GTO, IGCT and IGBT), we offer fast diodes that are optimized for the switch application. They only allow one-way flow of electrons.  

Most stronge Fast Recovery Diode in WEET are 1F7,BA157,FR106,1N4935,FR207,FR307,BY397,FR606.
