The BY500-600 is a silicon rectifier diode manufactured by Diotec Semiconductor, housed in the DO-201AD plastic package. It features a maximum average forward rectified current of 5.0 A and a repetitive peak reverse voltage of 600 V. The device supports a non-repetitive peak forward surge current of 200 A and exhibits a maximum reverse leakage current of 10 µA. Key electrical parameters include a forward voltage drop of 1.35 V and a recovery time of 200 ns. It operates within a junction temperature range of -55 °C to +175 °C.
Verify the manufacturer origin carefully, as the BY500-600 designation is historically associated with Vishay General Semiconductor. Confirm that the specific Diotec Semiconductor variant matches the required DO-201AD package dimensions and pinout compatibility before integration into existing designs.
Select this component for through-hole applications requiring robust 5 A current handling at 600 V blocking voltage. Ensure the thermal management strategy accommodates the specified junction temperature limits and that the circuit design accounts for the 200 ns recovery time to prevent switching issues.
This part belongs to the general-purpose rectifier category, utilizing standard soft recovery technology. It serves as a reliable solution for industrial and consumer electronics where moderate switching speeds and high surge tolerance are prioritized over ultra-fast performance metrics.
Direct substitutes include the BY500-600-E3/70 from Vishay. Verify equivalent electrical ratings and mechanical footprint compatibility when cross-referencing with other manufacturers' offerings.
