SBS24

Bridge Rectifier Overview

The SBS24 is a Schottky barrier rectifier manufactured by Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation, designed for general-purpose surface-mount applications. It features a maximum average forward rectified current of 2 Amperes and a repetitive peak reverse voltage of 40 Volts. The device utilizes a DO-214AA (SMA) surface-mount package to facilitate automated assembly processes. Key electrical characteristics include a low forward voltage drop and fast switching speeds, making it suitable for high-frequency conversion circuits. The component operates within a junction temperature range of -65°C to +175°C.

Bridge Rectifier Feature Summary

• Schottky barrier construction ensures minimal power loss during conduction
• Surface-mount packaging enables efficient automated PCB assembly
• Fast recovery action prevents thermal stress in high-frequency operation

Bridge Rectifier Applications

• DC-to-DC converter output rectification
• Free-wheeling diodes in low-voltage power supplies
• Reverse polarity protection circuits

Bridge Rectifier Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix code on the ordering information to confirm the exact tape-and-reel quantity or lead time requirements. Confirm RoHS compliance status and manufacturing origin details directly with the authorized distributor or manufacturer representative before finalizing procurement orders.

Bridge Rectifier Selection Notes

Select this component when a 2A current rating and 40V reverse voltage capability are required in a compact SMA footprint. Ensure the application circuit does not exceed the specified maximum junction temperature limits. Compare forward voltage specifications against alternative manufacturers to ensure compatibility with system efficiency targets.

Bridge Rectifier Part Context

This part belongs to the series of surface-mount Schottky rectifiers produced by Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation. These devices are engineered to replace bulkier through-hole alternatives in modern consumer electronics and industrial power supply designs where space constraints and thermal performance are critical design factors.

Bridge Rectifier Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements must match the 2A current rating, 40V reverse voltage, and DO-214AA package dimensions. Verify that substitute components offer equivalent or superior forward voltage characteristics and thermal resistance values to maintain original circuit performance.
