MP358W-BP

Bridge Rectifier Overview

The MP358W-BP is a single-phase bridge rectifier manufactured by Micro Commercial Components (MCC). It utilizes silicon technology and features through-hole installation with solder pin termination. The device is housed in the MP-50W-4 package, measuring 28.7 mm in length, 28.7 mm in width, and 11.23 mm in height, with an approximate unit weight of 14.500 g. Key electrical parameters include a forward current rating of 35 A, a peak reverse voltage of 800 V, and a maximum surge current of 400 A. The forward voltage is specified at 1.1 V, while the reverse leakage current is limited to 5 uA. The component operates within a temperature range from -55 C to +150 C.

Bridge Rectifier Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version and compliance documentation, such as RoHS and REACH status, directly from the manufacturer or authorized distributor before procurement. Confirm that the MP-50W-4 package dimensions and lead configurations match the target PCB layout requirements. Ensure that thermal management strategies account for the specified operating temperature range and forward voltage characteristics under expected load conditions.

Bridge Rectifier Selection Notes

Select this component when a 35 A continuous forward current and 800 V peak reverse voltage are required in a through-hole bridge rectifier format. The MP-50W-4 package provides a robust mechanical solution for high-power applications. Consider the 1.1 V forward voltage drop for efficiency calculations and ensure the circuit design accommodates the 400 A surge current capability during startup or fault conditions.

Bridge Rectifier Part Context

The MP358W-BP belongs to the MP358W series of single-phase bridge rectifiers from Micro Commercial Components. This series is designed for general-purpose rectification tasks in power electronics. The part number suffix typically indicates specific packaging or compliance variations, but the core electrical specifications remain consistent within the series for the 35 A, 800 V rating.

Bridge Rectifier Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 35 A current rating, 800 V reverse voltage, and MP-50W-4 package footprint. Verify pinout compatibility and thermal performance characteristics. Cross-referencing with other manufacturers' bridge rectifiers in the same series class is recommended to ensure equivalent surge current handling and leakage specifications.
