DF06M-E3/45

Bridge Rectifier Overview

The Vishay DF06M-E3/45 is a miniature glass passivated single-phase bridge rectifier in the DFM package. It provides a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 600 V and an average forward output rectified current of 1.0 A at 40 °C ambient temperature. The device features a peak forward surge current capability of 50 A and a maximum instantaneous forward voltage drop of 1.1 V per diode at 1.0 A. Operating junction and storage temperatures range from -55 to +150 °C, with a typical thermal resistance of 40 °C/W from junction to ambient.

Bridge Rectifier Feature Summary

• Glass passivation for high reliability
• Ideal for printed circuit board mounting
• Suitable for automated insertion processes

Bridge Rectifier Applications

• AC/DC bridge full wave rectification for switching mode power supplies
• Lighting ballast circuits
• Battery chargers and home appliances
• Office equipment and telecommunication applications

Bridge Rectifier Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized distributors or direct manufacturer channels. Confirm RoHS compliance status and check for specific ordering suffixes that may affect packaging or material categorization. Review the latest datasheet revision for any updates to mechanical dimensions or electrical ratings before finalizing procurement specifications.

Bridge Rectifier Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact single-phase bridge rectifier with 600 V blocking capability is required. Ensure the application operates within the specified 1.0 A average forward current limit and does not exceed the 50 A peak surge rating. Verify that the DFM package dimensions fit the available PCB space and that thermal management aligns with the 40 °C/W junction-to-ambient thermal resistance.

Bridge Rectifier Part Context

This part belongs to the Vishay DF series of miniature glass passivated single-phase bridge rectifiers. The series includes variants with different reverse voltage ratings ranging from 50 V to 1000 V, all sharing the same DFM package style and 1.0 A current rating. The E3 suffix indicates RoHS compliance and matte tin plating.

Bridge Rectifier Replacement Considerations

Vishay recommends the B4S-E3/80 as a replacement for certain discontinued bridge rectifiers, though it differs in package and current rating. For direct functional substitution within the same series, verify availability of other DFxxM-E3 variants with matching voltage ratings.
