RL251M-TP

Single Diodes Overview

The RL251M-TP is a single-phase standard recovery rectifier manufactured by Micro Commercial Components (MCC). It features a 2.5A average forward current rating and a 50V repetitive peak reverse voltage. The device utilizes a DO-15 through-hole package, ensuring robust mechanical stability for general-purpose applications. Key electrical characteristics include a maximum non-repetitive peak forward surge current of 75A at 8.3ms single half-sine-wave impulse and a typical junction capacitance of 35pF measured at 4V reverse bias and 1MHz frequency. The component is compliant with RoHS standards and is lead-free.

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix designation when ordering, as variations may exist within the product line. Confirm that the received components match the active status indicated in official manufacturer documentation. Ensure compatibility with existing thermal management designs, as the DO-15 package has specific mounting requirements. Cross-reference part numbers carefully to avoid confusion with obsolete variants or different voltage ratings within the same series.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring moderate current handling with low forward voltage drop characteristics. The 50V rating makes it suitable for low-voltage secondary side rectification in isolated converters. Consider the thermal resistance of the DO-15 package when designing heat dissipation strategies. Ensure the operating temperature range aligns with the specified junction temperature limits for long-term reliability in the target environment.
