Hi guys,
I have a problem finding the right diode for my application. I need to put 2 power supplies (different types) in series and need to protect each of them from reverse currents using diodes. I believe that they already have diodes built in, but I want to take precautions.
So my problem is that I am not sure which diodes to order.
One power supply is 52V, 30 Amp and the other one is 30 V, 20 Amp. the circuit will be powered at 72 V and current could increase up to 12.5 Amp.
Since I am not experienced with diodes I am wondering which ones to choose.
I have the following diodes (1N5402), but I believe the current rating does not match.
I found these: http://www.digikey.com/product-detai...ICT-ND/2242770
Do you think they will be appropriate?
Thanks so much
