This series also offers a voltage range from 20 to 30 V and an extremely low forward voltage drop of 0.63 V typ at 10 […]
Bridge rectifiers feature peak repetitive reverse voltage ratings to 1,000V
Taiwan Semiconductor announces the availability of the GBU150x family of standard bridge rectifiers. These GBU-packaged, 15A-rated rectifiers are available with peak repetitive reverse voltage ratings (VRRM) from 600V to 1000V and 1.0ms peak forward surge current (IFSM) of 600A. The highest-rated (1KV) device, offered at the same price in production quantities as the others in […]
Active AC-DC bridge rectifiers eliminate bridge losses
Alpha and Omega Semiconductor Limited announced a new family of active AC-DC bridge rectifiers. Aptly trademarked AlphaZBL for “zero bridge loss,” this new family of products virtually eliminates the bridge rectifier losses in AC-DC power supplies and adaptors. Typical end applications include high power 100W and above adaptors used for high-end laptops and televisions as […]
15-A Bridge rectifiers feature 1 kV peak reverse voltage, 600-A surge current ratings
The GBU150x family of standard bridge rectifiers are GBU-packaged, 15 A-rated rectifiers available with peak repetitive reverse voltage ratings (VRRM ) from 600 V to 1,000 V and 1.0 msec peak forward surge current (IFSM ) of 600 A. The highest rated (1 kV) device, offered at the same price in production quantities as the […]
1-kV bridge rectifiers handle up to 4 A
Taiwan Semiconductor announces the availability of the RxBS Family of glass passivated 1000V bridge rectifiers. Offered with current ratings of 2A, 3A, and 4A, these miniature surface-mount devices simplify compliance with global EMC requirements while lowering component count. The devices’ UL recognition can also aid in attaining safety certification for the end product. The RxBS […]
