SILICON BRIDGE RECTIFIERS
* High current capability
* High surge current capability
* Low forward voltage drop
* High case dielectric strength
* Case : Molded plastic with heatsink integrally
mounted in the bridge encapsulation
* Epoxy : UL94V-O rate flame retardant
* Terminals : Plated lead solderable per
MIL-STD-202, Method 208 guaranteed
* Polarity : Polarity symbols marked on case
* Mounting position : Bolt down on heat-sink
with silicone thermal compound between
bridge and mounting surface for maximum
MAXIMUM RATINGS AND ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS
C ambient temperature unless otherwise specified.
Single phase, half wave, 60 Hz, resistive or inductive load.
For capacitive load, derate current by 20%.
