DB15-08

Bridge Rectifier Overview

The DB15-08 is a single-phase silicon bridge rectifier manufactured by Diotec Semiconductor. It features an average forward rectified current of 1.5 A and a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 800 V. The device utilizes a standard diffused junction technology with a low forward voltage drop to ensure high efficiency. It is housed in the WOB plastic package, designed for through-hole mounting on printed circuit boards. The component supports a high non-repetitive peak forward surge current and operates within a junction temperature range of -55°C to +175°C.
