BR1010SG-G

Bridge Rectifier Overview

The BR1010SG-G is a single-phase bridge rectifier manufactured by Comchip Technology. It features an average forward current rating of 10 A and a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 1000 V. The device utilizes a silicon diode configuration with four elements in a BR-8 through-hole package. Key electrical parameters include a maximum non-repetitive peak forward surge current of 175 A, a maximum forward voltage drop of 1.1 V, and a maximum reverse leakage current of 10 µA. The component operates within a temperature range from -55 °C to +150 °C.

Bridge Rectifier Feature Summary

• Glass passivated chip junction for enhanced reliability
• Low forward voltage drop for improved efficiency
• High surge overload rating capability
• Silver plated copper leads for solderability

Bridge Rectifier Applications

• General purpose AC to DC power supply conversion
• Battery charging circuits
• DC motor drive rectification

Bridge Rectifier Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'SG' against the manufacturer's official datasheet to confirm compliance with RoHS directives and halogen-free status. Ensure the ordering quantity aligns with the standard bulk packaging specifications provided by Comchip Technology. Confirm that the BR-8 package dimensions match the target PCB footprint requirements before finalizing procurement.

Bridge Rectifier Selection Notes

Select this component when a 10 A current capacity and 1000 V blocking voltage are required in a compact through-hole form factor. The BR-8 package offers a balance between thermal performance and board space efficiency compared to larger industrial rectifiers. Consider the 175 A surge rating for applications involving high inrush currents or transient loads.

Bridge Rectifier Part Context

The BR1010SG-G belongs to the BR10xxSG series of glass passivated bridge rectifiers from Comchip Technology. This series is designed for general-purpose applications requiring robust performance in a small outline package. The part shares common design characteristics with other variants in the BR10xx family, differing primarily in reverse voltage ratings while maintaining the same 10 A forward current capability.

Bridge Rectifier Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements must match the 10 A current rating, 1000 V reverse voltage, and BR-8 package type. Verify pinout compatibility and thermal resistance characteristics. Cross-reference with equivalent parts from other manufacturers ensuring identical electrical specifications and mechanical dimensions.
