2W06G

Bridge Rectifier Overview

The 2W06G is a single-phase silicon bridge rectifier manufactured by onsemi, rated for a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 600 V and an average forward rectified current of 2 A. It utilizes the WOG plastic cylindrical package with four pins. Key electrical characteristics include a maximum non-repetitive peak forward surge current of 60 A and a typical reverse leakage current below 0.5 μA. The device supports a maximum junction temperature of 150 °C and features a round, isolated case design suitable for printed circuit board mounting.

Bridge Rectifier Feature Summary

• High surge current capability for robust transient protection
• Low typical reverse leakage current ensuring minimal power loss in blocking mode
• UL recognized component for enhanced safety compliance

Bridge Rectifier Applications

• Printed circuit board mounted AC-DC power supplies
• General purpose bridge rectification in consumer electronics
• Adapters and chargers requiring 600V isolation

Bridge Rectifier Procurement Notes

Verify the specific manufacturer designation upon receipt, as the component may be sourced from Vishay under license or distribution agreements associated with the onsemi portfolio. Confirm RoHS status and lead-free compliance through official documentation, as historical data indicates potential variations in certification codes across different production batches and supplier sources.

Bridge Rectifier Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring a compact cylindrical bridge rectifier with 600 V reverse voltage withstand capability. Ensure the thermal management design accommodates the 150 °C maximum junction temperature limit. Verify that the 2 A average current rating aligns with the load requirements, considering derating factors for ambient temperature and PCB copper area availability.

Bridge Rectifier Part Context

The 2W06G belongs to the 2W series of glass-passivated single-phase bridge rectifiers. This series includes variants with different reverse voltage ratings, such as the 2W04G (400 V) and 2W08G (800 V), sharing identical physical dimensions and current handling capabilities. The WOG case style provides a standardized footprint for easy integration into existing designs requiring higher voltage blocking.

Bridge Rectifier Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same series include the 2W04G for lower voltage applications and the 2W08G for higher voltage requirements, provided the pinout and mechanical dimensions remain compatible. Cross-brand equivalents must match the 2 A current rating, 600 V reverse voltage, and WOG package constraints.
