RS506-G

Bridge Rectifier Overview

The RS506-G is a silicon Schottky barrier rectifier manufactured by Comchip Technology, housed in the DO-201AD (DO-15) axial leaded package. It features a single diode configuration with an isolated case connection and UL94-V0 rated flame retardant epoxy. The device supports a continuous forward current of 5.0 A at an ambient temperature of 75°C without thermal runaway. Key electrical parameters include a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 60 V, a maximum average forward rectified current of 5.0 A, and a low maximum forward voltage of 0.7 V. It withstands a non-repetitive peak forward surge current of 125 A and operates at junction temperatures up to 150°C.

Bridge Rectifier Feature Summary

• Silicon epitaxial planar chip construction
• Lead-free composition compliant with RoHS requirements

Bridge Rectifier Applications

• Low voltage, high frequency inverters
• Free wheeling diode circuits
• Polarity protection applications

Bridge Rectifier Procurement Notes

Verify the component against official Comchip Technology datasheets to confirm the specific suffix matches the required specifications. Ensure that the ordering information aligns with the manufacturer's current production status and packaging details before finalizing procurement.

Bridge Rectifier Selection Notes

Select this component for designs requiring robust Schottky rectification with high ESD tolerance. Verify that the 60 V reverse voltage rating and 5.0 A current capacity meet the circuit's peak and continuous load requirements while maintaining thermal stability within the specified operating range.

Bridge Rectifier Part Context

This part belongs to the SB560EA-G series of ESD-leaded Schottky barrier rectifiers from Comchip Technology. It shares similar functional characteristics with other devices in the manufacturer's SMD and through-hole diode specialist lineup, focusing on general-purpose applications requiring reliable switching performance.

Bridge Rectifier Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with equivalent 5A 60V Schottky rectifiers in the DO-201AD package. Confirm that substitute parts match the 0.7 V forward voltage and 125 A surge current ratings to ensure identical circuit behavior.
