Rectifiers rated to 25 A

17 September 2008 Power Electronics / Power Management

Vishay recently announced a new series of enhanced high-current-density PowerBridge rectifiers with current ratings of 10 A to 25 A and maximum peak reverse voltage ratings of 600 V to 1000 V.

The single-phase rectifiers are a suitable bridge package choice for AC-DC rectification in switch-mode power supplies for desktop PCs, servers, PDP TVs, LCD TVs, audio/video systems, and adaptors for notebook PCs and monitors; power inverters in home appliances such as refrigerators, washing machines, airconditioners, and induction heater systems; and primary rectification circuits for switch-mode power supplies in telecommunication systems.

For OEM vendors, the new devices offer compatible package, lead pitch, and pin layouts to conventional GBU packages. This saves time by allowing the same PCB layout to be used for a wide range of bridge rectifier voltage and current ratings. For manual soldering, a +260°C, 40-second solder dipping process enables high reliability.
