RDBF156U-13

Bridge Rectifier Overview

The RDBF156U-13 is a single-phase bridge rectifier manufactured by Diodes Incorporated. It features an average forward current rating of 1.5 A and a peak repetitive reverse voltage of 600 V. The device utilizes silicon technology and is housed in a DBF-4 surface-mount package with dimensions of 8.9 mm length, 6.85 mm width, and 1.5 mm height. Key electrical characteristics include a maximum forward voltage of 1.3 V at rated current, a reverse leakage current of 5 uA, and a peak non-repetitive forward surge current capability of 70 A. The component operates within a temperature range from -55 °C to +150 °C.

Bridge Rectifier Feature Summary

• Surface-mount construction for automated PCB assembly
• High thermal stability for demanding environments
• Low forward voltage drop for efficiency

Bridge Rectifier Applications

• General-purpose AC-to-DC conversion circuits
• Power supply input stages
• Bridge rectification in consumer electronics

Bridge Rectifier Procurement Notes

Verify the specific voltage variant required, as the RDBF15 series includes multiple ratings (200V, 400V, 600V, 800V). Confirm availability status directly with authorized distributors, as this part number may be subject to discontinuation notices or limited stock conditions. Ensure the DBF-4 footprint matches the target design.

Bridge Rectifier Selection Notes

Select the RDBF156U-13 when a 600 V reverse voltage rating is necessary for bridge rectification applications requiring 1.5 A continuous current. Compare against other RDBF15 variants based on specific line voltage requirements. Ensure the operating environment stays within the specified -55 °C to +150 °C range and that the PCB layout accommodates the DBF-4 package dimensions.

Bridge Rectifier Part Context

This component belongs to the RDBF15 series of surface-mount bridge rectifiers from Diodes Incorporated. The series shares common physical dimensions and thermal characteristics across different voltage ratings. Other members include RDBF152U-13 (200 V), RDBF154U-13 (400 V), RDBF158U-13 (800 V), and RDBF38-13 (3 A variant).

Bridge Rectifier Replacement Considerations

Publicly confirmed substitutes are not explicitly listed for this specific 600 V variant in the provided documentation. The RDBF158U-13 (800 V) may serve as a higher-voltage alternative if current ratings match. Verify pinout compatibility with the DBF-4 package before substitution.
