Bridge Rectifiers 

are available at Jiffy Electronics from industry leading manufacturers.  Jiffy is an authorized distributor for many bridge rectifier manufacturers including Comchip, Diodes Inc., GeneSic, IXYS, Micro Commercial Components (MCC), onsemi, Shindengen, Vishay & more.

Bridge rectifiers are discrete semiconductors that convert an input AC current into a DC current as an output. Bridge rectifiers feature four diodes in a bridge configuration that provides the same polarity of output voltage for either polarity of input voltage. A bridge rectifier provides full-wave rectification from a two-wire AC input, offering lower cost and weight compared to a rectifier with a 3-wire input from a transformer with a center-tapped secondary winding. They are used in a variety of applications, including portable electronic devices, switching power supplies, home appliances, and white goods.

Zener Diodes

 are in stock with same-day shipping at Jiffy Electronics from industry leading manufacturers. Jiffy is an authorized distributor for many zener diode manufacturers including Diodes Inc, Microchip, Micro Commercial Components (MCC), Nexperia, onsemi, Vishay & more.

A zener diode allows current to flow in both forward and reverse directions. The reverse direction of current flow is allowed if the voltage is larger than the breakdown voltage (or “zener voltage”). Zener diodes differ from conventional diodes in that they maintain a controlled breakdown which doesn’t damage the zener diode when a reverse current higher than the zener voltage passes through it.
