BR1005-BP

Bridge Rectifier Overview

The BR1005-BP is a single-phase bridge rectifier manufactured by Micro Commercial Components (MCC). It features a 10 A average forward rectified current rating and a 1000 V maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage. The device utilizes a plastic encapsulated package with through-hole mounting capabilities. Key electrical parameters include a forward voltage of 1.1 V at rated current, a non-repetitive peak surge current capacity of 150 A, and a maximum reverse leakage current of 5 uA. The component operates within a junction temperature range from -55 °C to +150 °C.

Bridge Rectifier Feature Summary

• High voltage capability suitable for demanding power supply applications
• Robust surge current handling for transient protection
• Compact plastic encapsulation for efficient board space utilization

Bridge Rectifier Applications

• AC-DC power supply circuits
• Battery chargers
• General-purpose rectification in industrial equipment

Bridge Rectifier Procurement Notes

Verify the current lifecycle status before procurement as the component may be marked as Not Recommended for New Designs. Confirm package dimensions and pinout compatibility with existing PCB footprints. Ensure that the 1000 V rating aligns with the specific circuit requirements. Check for RoHS compliance documentation if environmental regulations apply to the final assembly.

Bridge Rectifier Selection Notes

Select this component when a high-voltage single-phase bridge rectifier is required for through-hole assembly. Compare the 10 A current rating against the load requirements to ensure adequate headroom. Consider the thermal management needs given the 150 °C maximum operating temperature. Evaluate alternative packages if surface-mount technology is preferred over through-hole mounting.

Bridge Rectifier Part Context

The BR1005-BP belongs to MCC's BR series of single-phase bridge rectifiers. This series offers various voltage ratings and current capacities for different power applications. The BR1005 variant specifically targets high-voltage scenarios requiring moderate current handling. It shares common design principles with other parts in the family but differs in its specific electrical limits and packaging characteristics.
