Abstract :
The reverse recovery of power rectifiers is analyzed solving the one-dimensional ambipolar diffusion equation for any given current waveform, with the aid of the Fourier cosine series in respect to space coordinate. Applications of the method to linear ramp and sine-wave recovery are given.
