Ultra-low VF bridge rectifier provides a new standard for reliability and efficiency

06-06-2024 | Rutronik | Power

Rutronik now offers the new ultra-low VF bridge rectifier series GBJ and GBU from Panjit in its product range. The components were developed using oxide planar chip junction technology and equipped with PI protection layers, which raises the performance and reliability of the series to a new level. They impress with a remarkably low forward voltage of 0.74V and an actual leakage current of just 20µA at 125C in each case. The bridge rectifiers also benefit from the enormous process stability in wafer manufacturing, creating high-quality components for various power applications, such as servers, telecommunications, gaming, and other high-performance applications. The series comply with EU RoHS 2.0 standards and are halogen-free in accordance with the IEC 61249 standard, which minimises their environmental footprint.

The rectifiers are characterised by their high performance and long service life. With the industry's lowest forward voltage of 0.74V at 125C, the components allow optimised use of the supplied power while improving energy efficiency. With an actual leakage current of only 20µA at 125C, this bridge rectifier series ensures efficient power transfer and enhances system reliability and stability even under particularly demanding conditions.

The maximum junction temperature is 175C. This increases the efficiency of high-power applications, for example, while improving heat dissipation capacity.
