DB203L-BP

Bridge Rectifier Overview

The DB203L-BP is a single-phase bridge rectifier manufactured by Micro Commercial Components (MCC). It utilizes silicon technology and is housed in a DB-1 through-hole package. The device supports a maximum average forward rectified current of 1.5 A at a case temperature of 85°C. It features a peak repetitive reverse voltage rating of 200 V and a non-repetitive peak forward surge current capability of 40 A at 8.3 ms half-sine wave. The component operates within a junction temperature range of -55°C to +150°C.

Bridge Rectifier Feature Summary

• Single-phase full-wave rectification configuration
• Through-hole mounting for PCB integration
• Silicon planar die construction

Bridge Rectifier Applications

• General-purpose AC to DC power supply conversion
• Low-voltage rectification circuits
• Battery charging systems

Bridge Rectifier Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet revision and RoHS compliance status directly with Micro Commercial Components or authorized distributors before procurement. Confirm that the DB-1 package dimensions match your PCB footprint requirements. Ensure thermal management strategies account for the specified case temperature limits during operation.

Bridge Rectifier Selection Notes

Select this component when a 1.5 A continuous current rating and 200 V reverse voltage blocking capability are required. The DB-1 package is suitable for applications where through-hole assembly is preferred over surface mount technology. Verify that the operating junction temperature will not exceed the maximum rated limit under worst-case thermal conditions.

Bridge Rectifier Part Context

This part belongs to the MCC DB series of silicon bridge rectifiers, which provides various current and voltage ratings. The DB203L-BP specifically offers a 1.5 A rating and 200 V reverse voltage, distinguishing it from higher current variants like the DB205L-BP or lower voltage options within the same product family.

Bridge Rectifier Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other manufacturers' 1.5 A, 200 V bridge rectifiers in the DB-1 package. Verify pinout compatibility and thermal characteristics before substitution.
