Diode Arrays Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix to confirm compliance requirements. The standard suffix indicates lead-free finish and RoHS compliance. An additional suffix may be required if halogen-free certification is necessary for the intended application. Ensure the procurement channel is authorized to guarantee genuine parts and full traceability as per manufacturer guidelines.

Diode Arrays Selection Notes

Select this component for designs requiring a dual rectifier solution in a through-hole package. The 80 V rating suits low-voltage power supplies. Evaluate thermal management needs based on the 2.0°C/W junction-to-case thermal resistance. Confirm that the 20 A current rating aligns with the load requirements under expected operating temperatures.
