PB66-BP

Bridge Rectifier Overview

The PB66-BP is a single-phase bridge rectifier manufactured by Micro Commercial Components (MCC). It features a 6A average forward rectified current rating and a 600V maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage. The device utilizes a PB-6 plastic package with solder pin termination for through-hole mounting. Key electrical specifications include a maximum forward voltage of 1.1V, a reverse leakage current of 10uA, and a surge overload rating of 150A. It operates within a temperature range of -55°C to +125°C.

Bridge Rectifier Feature Summary

• Single-phase bridge rectifier configuration
• RoHS compliant lead-free finish
• Through-hole mounting capability
• High surge overload rating

Bridge Rectifier Applications

• General-purpose power supply circuits
• AC to DC conversion stages
• Industrial control systems

Bridge Rectifier Procurement Notes

Verify the specific part number PB66-BP against manufacturer datasheets to confirm the 600V rating and PB-6 package type. Ensure compatibility with required thermal management solutions given the operating temperature limits. Confirm RoHS compliance status if environmental regulations apply to the final assembly.

Bridge Rectifier Selection Notes

Select this component when a 6A current capacity and 600V blocking voltage are required in a compact through-hole package. Consider the 1.1V forward voltage drop for efficiency calculations. Verify that the PCB layout supports the PB-6 footprint and that the ambient temperature remains within the specified operational range.

Bridge Rectifier Part Context

This component belongs to the PB6 series of bridge rectifiers from MCC, which offers various voltage ratings from 50V to 1000V while maintaining a consistent 6A current rating and PB-6 package form factor. The 'BP' suffix typically indicates RoHS compliance and halogen-free construction within this product line.

Bridge Rectifier Replacement Considerations

Compatible alternatives include other 6A 600V single-phase bridge rectifiers in the PB-6 package, such as those from Diodes Incorporated or Littelfuse. Ensure pinout compatibility and verify that thermal and electrical characteristics meet or exceed the original design requirements.
