DF1506S

Bridge Rectifier Overview

The DF1506S is a single-phase, surface-mount standard recovery bridge rectifier manufactured by Diodes Incorporated. It features glass passivated die construction and operates with an average forward rectified current of 1.5 A at +40°C ambient temperature. The device has a peak repetitive reverse voltage rating of 600 V and a maximum forward voltage drop of 1.1 V at the rated current. It supports a non-repetitive peak forward surge current of 50 A for 8.3 ms half-sine waves. The component is housed in a DF-S molded plastic package with tin-plated terminals and is compliant with RoHS 3 standards.

Bridge Rectifier Feature Summary

• Glass passivated chip junctions designed for low leakage current
• Low forward voltage drop combined with high current capability
• High surge current capability rated to 50 A peak
• Designed specifically for surface-mount applications

Bridge Rectifier Applications

• General-purpose AC to DC power supply circuits
• Bridge rectification in consumer electronics
• Industrial control systems requiring surface-mount components

Bridge Rectifier Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix when purchasing. The base part number DF1506S typically indicates tube packaging containing 50 units per carrier. Variants such as DF1506S-T utilize tape and reel packaging with 1500 units. Confirm the required packing quantity matches the production needs before placing orders.

Bridge Rectifier Selection Notes

Select this component for designs requiring a 600 V reverse voltage rating and 1.5 A continuous current in a compact surface-mount footprint. Ensure the application does not exceed the 50 A surge limit or operate beyond the specified thermal resistance limits. Derate the forward current by 20% if used with capacitive loads.

Bridge Rectifier Part Context

This component belongs to the DF15005S through DF1510S series from Diodes Incorporated. The series covers reverse voltage ratings ranging from 50 V to 1000 V while maintaining a consistent 1.5 A forward current capability and identical DF-S package dimensions across all variants.

Bridge Rectifier Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include DB152S from SMC Diode Solutions and DF01S from onsemi. Verify that replacement parts match the 600 V reverse voltage, 1.5 A current rating, and DF-S package outline dimensions.
