In this paper, three-phase synchronous rectifier for automotive alternator design is proposed. Output voltage of the traditional automotive alternator is transferred from AC voltage into DC voltage through three-phase rectifier whose current is through two diodes that result in voltage drop of 1.1-1.5 V. The current may reach 100-150 A for automotive power demand of 1.5 kW. The power losses of diode rectifier are about 300 to 400 W and the efficiency of about 75%. Instead of diodes, MOSFETs which are used for rectifier are turn-on as the diode is turn-on. The efficiency of rectifier can be increased to 93% by using synchronous rectifier because the turn-on losses of MOSFETs are significantly less than those of diodes.
