2W02M

Overview

The GeneSiC Semiconductor 2W02M is a single-phase silicon bridge rectifier rated for 2.0 A average forward current at 50°C ambient temperature and a maximum recurrent peak reverse voltage of 200 V. It features a molded plastic case with pure tin-plated leads suitable for printed circuit board mounting. The device supports a peak forward surge current of 50 A and operates within a junction temperature range of -55°C to +125°C. Key electrical parameters include a maximum instantaneous forward voltage of 1.1 V at 2.0 A and a maximum DC reverse current of 10 µA at 25°C.

Feature Summary

• Surge overload capability up to 50 amperes peak
• High temperature soldering guaranteed at 260°C for 10 seconds
• Reliable low-cost construction using molded plastic

Applications

• Printed circuit board power supply circuits
• Half-wave rectification in resistive or inductive loads
• General purpose AC to DC conversion

Procurement Notes

Verify the manufacturer designation on official documentation, as some distributor listings may attribute this component to Navitas Semiconductor due to corporate acquisitions. Confirm RoHS compliance status through the specific datasheet version provided by the supplier. Ensure the ordering suffix matches the required voltage rating, as the base series covers multiple voltage options.

Selection Notes

Select the 2W02M specifically when a 200 V blocking voltage is required alongside a 2.0 A continuous current rating. Consider derating the forward current by 20% if the application involves capacitive loads rather than resistive or inductive ones. Verify that the operating ambient temperature remains within limits to maintain the specified 2.0 A rating without thermal derating.

Part Context

This component belongs to the 2W005M through 2W10M series of single-phase silicon bridge rectifiers manufactured by GeneSiC Semiconductor. The series provides standardized voltage ratings from 50 V to 1000 V while maintaining a consistent 2.0 A current capacity and GBU-compatible footprint dimensions for PCB integration.

Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include other 2.0 A bridge rectifiers with a minimum 200 V reverse voltage rating and identical pinout configurations. Ensure replacement devices support the same 50 A surge current requirement and operate within the -55°C to +125°C junction temperature range.
