Bridge rectifiers

16 March 2011 Power Electronics / Power Management

Vishay has introduced a new series of PowerBridge rectifiers with current ratings of 30 A to 45 A, maximum peak reverse voltage ratings of 600 V to 1000 V, and a high case dielectric strength of 1500 V.

The devices are single in-line bridge rectifiers in the PowerBridge package, which features a body size of 30 by 20 mm with a 3,8 mm profile.

The rectifiers are well suited for AC-to-DC rectification in switch-mode power supplies for desktop PCs, servers, PDP TVs, LCD TVs, and audio/video systems; power inverters in home appliances such as refrigerators, washing machines, air conditioners, and induction cookers; 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 the conventional GSIB-5S package. This saves time by allowing the same PCB layout to be used for a wide range of bridge rectifier voltage and current ratings. The rectifiers’ +275°C, 10 second solder dipping process per JESD 22-B106 enables high reliability in wave soldering or manual soldering.
