TS10K80-A

Bridge Rectifier Overview

The TS10K80-A is a silicon rectifier diode manufactured by Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation. It features an axial leaded package, specifically DO-201AD (DO-15), designed for through-hole mounting. The device is rated for a continuous forward current of 10 A and a repetitive peak reverse voltage of 800 V. Key electrical parameters include a maximum average forward rectified current of 10 A at 25°C ambient temperature, a non-repetitive peak surge current capability of 300 A, and a maximum DC blocking voltage of 800 V. The component operates within a junction temperature range of -65°C to +175°C and utilizes glass passivation for the junction to ensure reliability under high-voltage conditions.

Bridge Rectifier Feature Summary

• High surge overload rating capable of withstanding peak currents up to 300 amperes
• Glass passivated junction construction for enhanced environmental stability
• Isolated voltage from case to lead exceeding 2500 volts for safety
• Plastic encapsulation material classified as Underwriters Laboratory Flammability Rating 94V-0

Bridge Rectifier Applications

• General purpose rectification in AC to DC power supply circuits
• Bridge rectifier configurations for industrial power conversion
• Protection of low-voltage DC circuits against reverse polarity

Bridge Rectifier Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix and manufacturer part number against official Taiwan Semiconductor documentation before procurement. Confirm that the component meets required RoHS compliance standards and check for any recent product change notifications (PCN) that may affect pinout or material composition. Ensure the supplier provides valid traceability documents for quality assurance purposes.

Bridge Rectifier Selection Notes

Select this component when a robust axial rectifier is needed for 800 V applications requiring 10 A continuous current. Consider the thermal derating requirements for operation above 25°C ambient temperature. Evaluate the physical dimensions of the DO-201AD package to ensure compatibility with the target PCB layout and mounting constraints compared to alternative bridge rectifiers.

Bridge Rectifier Part Context

This component belongs to the general-purpose rectifier diode category produced by Taiwan Semiconductor. It serves as a discrete semiconductor solution for power conversion tasks, distinct from integrated bridge rectifiers or fast-recovery diodes. The device is engineered for durability in standard industrial and consumer electronics environments where high voltage blocking and moderate current handling are primary requirements.

Bridge Rectifier Replacement Considerations

Publicly confirmed substitute part numbers for the TS10K80-A were not identified in available verified sources. Engineers should consult official cross-reference lists from Taiwan Semiconductor or verify equivalent specifications from other manufacturers such as Vishay or Littelfuse before substitution.
