MB805

Bridge Rectifier Overview

The MB805 is a single-phase bridge rectifier manufactured by MCC (Micro Commercial Components). It features an average forward current of 8.0 A at a case temperature of 50°C and a maximum recurrent peak reverse voltage of 50 V. The device has a maximum RMS voltage of 35 V and a DC blocking voltage of 50 V. Electrical characteristics include a maximum forward voltage drop of 1.1 V at 4.0 A per element and a maximum DC reverse current of 10 µA at 25°C. It utilizes a BR-6 through-hole package with molded plastic housing rated UL 94V-0.

Bridge Rectifier Feature Summary

• Single-phase bridge rectifier configuration for AC to DC conversion
• Molded plastic case material with UL flammability classification rating 94V-0
• Capable of operation in any mounting position

Bridge Rectifier Applications

• General purpose rectification in power supply circuits
• Half-wave or full-wave rectification with resistive or inductive loads
• Industrial equipment requiring standard bridge rectification

Bridge Rectifier Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix when purchasing, as it determines RoHS compliance status. Confirm that the component meets the required environmental standards for your application. Ensure sourcing from authorized distributors to guarantee authenticity and traceability. Check for any recent product change notices regarding packaging or manufacturing location updates.

Bridge Rectifier Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring an 8 A continuous current rating and 50 V reverse voltage capability. Consider the thermal derating curve if operating above 50°C case temperature. Verify that the BR-6 package dimensions fit the PCB layout constraints. Evaluate the surge current rating against potential transient conditions in the circuit.

Bridge Rectifier Part Context

The MB805 belongs to the MB8x series of single-phase bridge rectifiers produced by Micro Commercial Components. This series covers voltage ratings from 50 V to 1000 V, sharing common electrical characteristics such as the 8 A forward current and BR-6 package style. The part is designed for general-purpose rectification tasks in various electronic systems.

Bridge Rectifier Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes within the same series include MB81, MB82, MB84, MB86, MB88, and MB810, which share identical current ratings and package types but offer higher reverse voltage capabilities.
