2W08

Bridge Rectifier Overview

The Lumimax Optoelectronic Technology 2W08 is a glass passivated bridge rectifier designed for general-purpose AC-to-DC conversion. It features a maximum average forward rectified output current of 2.0 A at 25°C ambient temperature and supports a peak forward surge current of 60 A. The device offers a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM) of 800 V, with a corresponding maximum DC blocking voltage of 800 V and a maximum RMS voltage of 560 V. Electrical characteristics include a maximum instantaneous forward drop of 1.1 V at rated current and a maximum DC reverse current of 10 μA at 25°C. The component operates within a junction and storage temperature range of -55 to +150 °C.

Bridge Rectifier Procurement Notes

Verify the specific part number suffix against official documentation to confirm package type and marking code. Confirm that the ordering quantity aligns with standard box quantities of 1,000 units per delivery mode. Ensure compatibility with existing thermal management designs given the specified operating temperature range.

Bridge Rectifier Selection Notes

Select the 2W08 variant when an 800 V reverse voltage rating is required for bridge rectifier applications. Ensure the design accounts for a 2.0 A continuous current limit at 25°C ambient temperature. Consider derating by 20% if the application involves capacitive loads to maintain safe operating conditions.

Bridge Rectifier Part Context

The 2W08 belongs to the 2W005 through 2W10 series of glass passivated bridge rectifiers from Lumimax Optoelectronic Technology. This series provides a range of reverse voltage ratings from 50 V to 1000 V while maintaining a consistent 2.0 A average forward current capability across all variants.

Bridge Rectifier Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include other 2.0 A, 800 V bridge rectifiers in similar packages such as WOB. Verify pinout compatibility and thermal resistance values before implementation.
